Sun, April 13 ~ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm  
PLEASE NOTE ALL TIMES ARE U.S. PACIFC TIME ZONE
Participation in this in-person event is completely optional. Not partaking will not impact the material you will learn nor certification. While we strongly encourage you to join us we also understand that timing and distance might make it impossible for you to come.
In this live, in-person workshop, you can expect to:
  • Experience feeling comforted, nurtured, welcomed, listened to, and understood by others who long to reclaim their role as a true healer, just like you
  • Free you from the limiting beliefs and constricting masks that keep you from expressing yourself and showing up for your clients with your most authentic, genuine presence 
  • Begin to heal—from the depths of your soul—from physical and mental illnesses or past traumas that may be limiting your passion, potential, and purpose
  • ​Meet and bond with your peer-to-peer mentor, your practice partner, your mastermind group, and your WHMI community. Since science shows that the more resonant bonding exists between you and those who are navigating this program with you, the more one person’s healing can impact everyone else’s. This workshop is intended to make sure maximum bonding results in maximum healing for everyone involved so you can bring your flowing life force to those you serve.
  • Practice movement, meditation, self-inquiry, writing, art, trust and intimacy exercises, and other modalities intended to put you in touch with the true essence of your deepest nature
  • ​Engage in experiential Sacred Medicine practices intended to expose you to these modailties while also bonding us as a group, opening us to the healing field, and working with coherent energies for the purposes of physical and emotional healing. You will get a sampler of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT), shamanic work, and group energy healing, as well as working deeply throughout the whole program with the 6 Steps To Healing Yourself.
  • ​Illuminate and heal from the helplessness that plagues many practitioners so you can step fully into your power as a leader in your field
  • ​Learn and practice Intentional Creativity with Shiloh Sophia as a tool for healing trauma (and the body) using art and quantum healing
  • Start the WHMI transformation that will grant you new eyes, open you back up to joy, fundamentally change how you practice, and give you and those you serve new life
  • ​Tap into the spiritual realm in non-religious ways, amplifying your power as a healer and allowing you to receive healing as you offer it to others, rather than depleting yourself 
  • Develop relationships with other healers who’ve actually experienced what you’ve experienced
  • ​Learn to trust the wisdom of your intuition and your body, which will guide your life and your practice
  • ​Set clear intentions about what you hope to garner from the program, so you can take steps towards manifesting your visionary dreams
  • ​Dance. Sing. Snuggle
  • Laugh—a lot!
TRAVEL INFORMATION

If you stay at the Acqua Hotel, on the water at the base of Mount Tamalpais in Mill Valley, CA, where the retreat will be hosted, you can enjoy a full gourmet breakfast buffet and evening wine and cheese out by the water. Hotel guests have access to free bicycles that you can ride on the bike path around Richardson Bay. 

Coffee and tea will be provided for all retreat guests, but meals are not included. Several wonderful restaurants, including a sushi bar and an Italian restaurant are a brief walk or drive from the venue.

Many flights fly directly into SFO. If you fly into SFO, the Marin Airporter can drop you at the Manzanita stop in Mill Valley, where the bus driver can call you a cab or you can Uber less than a mile from the luxury airporter. You can also fly into the Oakland airport, but there is no direct airport shuttle from Oakland to Mill Valley. 

You can, however, fly to Oakland and rent a car or take an Uber. You're also welcome to rent a car from SFO if you want wheels. You'll have free parking at the Acqua Hotel if you're coming to the retreat, whether you're staying there or not. So if you prefer to stay in an Airbnb, another hotel, or with friends, you're welcome to do so.

If you wish to extend your visit, you'll be within an hour drive of Napa Valley and Sonoma County wine country. You'll be a short Uber to the ferry to go into San Francisco. You can Uber to the Angel Island ferry if you want to walk or bike around the scenic island off the coast of Tiburon. Or you can Uber into Sausalito to walk along the San Francisco Bay. Lissa and her team have lived in the Bay Area for many decades collectively, and we're happy to offer travel recommendations. Just email support@lissarankin.com.
