The Goddess Return

Ignite your inner Goddess with Stephanie Rae

This all Women, Tantric Retreat, is going to IGNITE you!

The Goddesses are returning home, together. We will stand at the base of the Great Pyramids and wander through The Temple of Isis. We will spend days sailing down the Nile hand in hand, heart in heart. There will be two womb healing and activation workshops that include the optional use of a Yoni Egg.

We will practice Sunset Breathwork to IGNITE our inner fire and passion. The food. The land. The energy. The sacredness. This is an experience of a lifetime to travel in deep, raw sisterhood, back to the sacred land of the Goddess herself.

What to expect in classes

Blue Lotus Tea (Herbal) Ceremony and Womb Workshop

We’ll gather in ceremony to drink tea from the Blue Lotus flower to allow us to enter into a heightened sense of relaxation and higher state of consciousness so that we connect to our intuition and womb center. The blue lotus was given as offerings to the Goddesses as they symbolized rebirth and regeneration. As a Goddess whose quintessential power is rebirth and regeneration, Isis is closely connected with the beautiful blue lotus. It is said that Priestesses consumed the Blue Lotus tea before being revealed the Divine Feminine through the goddess Isis.

Goddess Sacral Manifesting Activation

Feeling into the magical land of the Goddesses that we are in, we will begin this workshop activating our own Inner Queen. We will be doing a Tantric Visualization through Sacral Breathwork to manifest our wildest desire. Doing this practice in sisterhood is a magical vortex and portal to stepping fully into and claiming your highest divine desires. (optional Yoni Egg)
