Life Purpose Retreat

Sacred Mountain Ranch Resort · Julian, California

January 15–18, 2026

A journey of rediscovery — uncover your gifts, align with your purpose, and step into life with clarity and intention.

What to Expect

Discovering your true purpose — or confirming that you’re already walking the right path — can feel daunting. Yet deep down, most of us long to explore the whispers of our soul and live with greater clarity and intention.

At the Life Purpose Retreat, we create the space, safety, and practices to begin that journey. By stepping out of the constant chatter of the mind, you’ll reconnect with your body, access the wisdom of your hidden self, and uncover the truth you already carry within you.

Over four transformative days, you’ll:

  • Engage in guided equine-assisted coaching to reveal patterns, deepen self-awareness, and strengthen presence.

  • Explore mindfulness and meditation practices for grounding and clarity.

  • Experience transformative 9D breathwork to release stored tension and awaken vitality.

  • Learn Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to let go of old beliefs.

  • Access insight through journaling, expressive art, and intentional silence.

  • Walk a contemplative labyrinth on the sacred land at Sacred Mountain.

  • Nourish your body with mindfully prepared, clean meals designed to support your nervous system.
