A retreat devoted to meeting the self with love. 

Being human, we all have stuff - unexpressed emotions, old wounds, trauma, protective parts, personalities, egos.  

And what if we held this all in love?

Together, we will explore what happens when we expand our gaze to compassionately meet the pieces of who we have come to believe ourselves to be. 

And through this Embrace, perhaps we find a doorway to remembering the truth of who we are. 

Embrace will take place in beautiful Boulder, Utah. 

Boulder is near our beloved Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, a five-hour drive from Salt Lake City or Las Vegas. If you are arriving by plane, Cedar City is another option for a nearby airport with an awesome drive in. 

We will be hosted at a one-of-a-kind ranch with acres of open land, an award-winning restaurant, and an endearing team supporting us there. 

All participants will be provided with three nights of accommodations, and you are encouraged to explore the surrounding area before or after our gathering. It will be a lovely time of year in the desert.

During our retreat together, we will flow from inward exploration, shared practice, nourishment, and time in nature. 

Our schedule includes two nights of meditations, and a third for integration and restoration before we part ways. Details will be shared over our Welcome Call. 

To join us, please complete the following:

• Submit this form
• Submit your Nova Guidance Intake
• Book a Welcome Call through Calendly

Once we connect on our Welcome Call, you will be directed on how to complete your deposit to secure your spot. You will also receive a more detailed information packet surrounding the retreat, group preparation and integration sessions, options for individual work, and recommendations for staying in and enjoying the area. 

Our group will be small and held with care, so space is limited. 
The deadline for registration is October 1.

Looking forward to welcoming you to Embrace. 

The requested donation for this gathering is $2800. 

This is an all-inclusive price: accommodations, food and drink, and meditations.
Room upgrades are available for an additional fee.

Both preparation and integration sessions are included. We will meet online via Zoom.

We have a limited number of partial scholarships available, and if you are in need, let's find a way. 

During our Welcome Call, we will discuss payment procedures, including the requirement of a $1000 deposit paid to secure your place. 

This deposit is non-refundable after 10/15.

We are so fortunate to be able to host this retreat at a location renowned for the owners' brilliant efforts towards land conservation and regeneration. Through their generous support, we will be held not only by a comfortable place but also in solitude, with the opportunity to connect with the natural world. 

The center of the property is a historic lodge where most will stay. Each room is unique, with rustic log-cabin finishing and private or shared bathrooms. All rooms have access to a communal great room with a kitchenette and mini-fridge. And in this lodge is where we will dine at their award-winning restaurant. 

For those who are interested in more privacy, there are three Mongolian yurts nearby that can be booked for an additional $300. They each have a detached bathhouse, power, and heaters for the cooler nights. 

If you are going to be joining us with a partner or a friend with whom you are interested in sharing a room, we can also accommodate that. Please include that below, and we will discuss options during our Welcome Call.

Please fill out the following intake as completely as possible to help us understand your medical, mental health, and substance use histories to evaluate any potential risks of participating in meditation with us.

The information you provide here will be kept confidential and is for the creation of a safe and supportive container for working together. 

While we are trained to screen for medical contraindications, we are not medical doctors. However, we have access to medical professionals for the purpose of safe and comprehensive screening should any element reside outside of our scope. As necessary, we will provide a referral for medical and pharmaceutical advice through our partner SatoriRx Consulting.
