MT. SHASTA RETREAT
May 23-27, 2024
An Interdimensional Journey
Join Shawn & Lynn for an intimate experience with Mama Shasta and all her magic. Located in Northeastern California, Mt. Shasta calls you to immerse yourself in her pristine air, water, forests, mountains and sacred vortexes/portals. This area holds high frequencies of pure bliss, heaven on Earth! Mama Shasta will reflect your innermost self, your soul’s longing and sense of belonging. Representing the root chakra of the Earth, she draws you home to the remembrance of your true essence.
Within this I AM presence, the illusion of separation will be unveiled as we journey to sacred vortexes/portals around Mama Shasta to experience the remembrance of Unity Consciousness. We will be divinely guided by beings of the highest frequency of love through the ley lines of crystalline light to access interdimensional portals connected all across the Earth to awaken, activate and embody so we can anchor this frequency for the New Earth. Throughout this journey we will enter the sacred temple of our hearts as one, connect with higher states of consciousness and bring in the wisdom and knowledge of our lifetimes to support the collective ascension.
We invite you to come prepared to be fully present in the moment as we connect to all that is and all that we are. We will assist in bridging the past, present and all futures into your reality with Love, Grace and the Guidance from the highest vibrational energies.

Anyone longing to connect with yourself on a deeper level! We are Gathering the Goddesses and the Divine Masculine to activate in walking each other into the badass Goddesses that we are, to connect with our Great Mother/Goddess and support this ascension process we are going through together. We will be addressing all areas of our multidimensional self for expansion. Physically, you must be able to walk at least 1 mile, easy to moderately trekking on rocky surfaces and explore caves. Being comfortable in nature is key and possibly using the bathroom outdoors during the day when we are in the woods. Mentally, we will be clearing stories and patterns that hinder your spiritual growth. Emotionally, we will feel into our experiences and allow this portal to take us deeper into our true essence. Energetically, we will expand and raise our frequency as we connect to our higher self, Ascended Masters and our star families.

Rhea’s food medicine was a surprise bonus to me. Even though I knew she was going to be providing our meals, listening to her speak about food and how it benefits us taught me so much. Also I really feel that the food and drinks she provided helped my body to integrate the higher frequencies of Shasta

TESTIMONIALS
Mount Shasta has been on my radar for many years and so when I saw that Lynn and Shawn were offering an intimate small-group retreat there for the fall equinox, I knew I’d find a way to attend. Their beautiful partnership brings you the exciting exuberance of Lynn and the serene grounding presence of Shawn in one perfect package. The sites they selected are truly sacred spaces that will transport you into a deeper appreciation of where we all came from and where we will go when we return “HOME”.
This retreat was a life changing experience for me. Shawn and Lynn are wonderful guides and they clearly have a deep, powerful spiritual connection with Mt. Shasta as they took us on a magical journey around sacred sites. I felt healed and restored by the beautiful spiritual practices and meditations they led us through. Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience.
