Awakening To Your True Essence: The Journey Within
With Cassidy Paulus, Jeremie Paulus and Julio Kintu
January 16 - 23, 2026
In our current era, our minds and bodies are often disconnected from the essence of spirit. We frequently hear about the integration of the mind, body, and spirit, yet the true understanding of ‘spirit’ remains elusive. The spirit cannot be seen, touched, tasted, heard, or smelled. It dwells in the realm of abstract concepts such as infinity or the universe- ideas often too vast for the human mind to fully grasp.
This 7-day retreat invites you to delve into the depths of self and to reacquaint yourself with your essence as a spiritual being. It will challenge you to explore your spiritual identity.
This journey of soulful (self) discovery is not easy; it’s fraught with challenges and requires resilience. But it’s a journey that brings us closer to the universal source to which we are all intrinsically linked.
Embarking on this path is an opportunity to confront the broken parts, past traumas and outdated beliefs that impede our connection with our soul. Only by addressing these can we start the process of remembering our true selves.
We will share various tools and practices, each carefully chosen to facilitate this deep dive into self-awareness and integrate the medicine. These practices are more than just exercises; they are gateways to unveiling the layers that mask our true selves.
The goal of these 7 days is not merely self-discovery- it is self-transformation. It’s about shedding the layers that no longer serve us and stepping into a space of authenticity and truth. By the end of this retreat, the aim is for each of us to emerge with a clearer understanding of who we are and a renewed sense of how to live authentically in our everyday lives.
You are not merely the name given at birth, the body you’ve come to identify with, nor the thoughts floating in your head. For many, this retreat will be an entirely new experience of self.
If this opportunity resonates with you deeply, if your response is a resounding “Hell yes,” then embark on this journey to cultivate a life of awareness and rediscover the essence of who you truly are.
