Equinox was created to give you the time and space to escape from the frantic pace of the day to day. Together, we will cultivate life-altering skills to elevate your spirit, reconnect to the wisdom of your body and bond with tribe manifesting the same kind of magically aligned lifestyle.
This 4 night 5 day journey coincides with the 2024 Autumn Equinox: the season of harvest, ancestors, and inner reflection. Through expertly curated activations and masterclasses, each day is designed to guide you through sacred portals of your soul, connect with your most authentic self and develop a roadmap for actualizing your manifestations.
