An immersive energy medicine retreat for the ones who always hold space—where healers, mothers, fathers, teachers, spaceholders, and those who care for others in any capacity come to be led, learn through transmission, and remember what it feels like to pour into themselves.
♡ Learn energy medicine through direct experience—explore energy anatomy, energy projection, and psychic gift development by receiving it, not facilitating it
♡ Develop self-mastery practices you'll actually use—tools for maintaining your energy, boundaries, and coherence when you return to holding space
♡ Receive transmission from experienced facilitators—be guided through cacao ceremony for heart coherence, sound healing, and energy work while someone else holds the container
♡ Connect with other practitioners—mothers, healers, teachers, and caregivers who understand burnout, devotion, and the real challenges of this work
♡ Leave with a toolkit and community—practical energy medicine skills, self-regulation practices, and people who get what you're navigating
What is The Healer’s Asylum Retreat?
The Healer's Asylum is both a retreat and a spiritual development container—an immersive space devoted to self healing mastery and inner restoration.
You'll be guided through cacao ceremony, learning energy work, and advanced practices while skilled facilitators hold the container. Between sessions, you'll be restored through movement, meditation, sacred waters, and the kind of nourishing food and connection that keeps you grounded.
You'll leave with practical energy medicine skills you can use on yourself, your family, and your community—plus a network of practitioners who understand what you're navigating.

Our Mission
We believe there has never been a greater need for those who hold space for others to be poured into—people devoted to healing themselves first, not as performance, but as the foundation for showing up in their lives with wholeness.
The Healer's Asylum exists as a space for those who find joy and restoration in learning, communing with spirit, connecting with community and working with their inherent magic to gather. It is a space to receive practical tools, embodied practices, and lived wisdom, first for your own inner growth and energetic mastery, and to integrate them in a way that feels true to your culture, values, and lived experience.
Rather than learning how to “fix” others, we emphasize self-healing as the foundation for life leadership. As you deepen your relationship with your own energy, you naturally develop the capacity to support your family, loved ones, and community from a place of clarity, presence, and wholeness.
