Deep Healing: A 5-Day Unconditional Self-Love, Qi Gong & Meditation Retreat

Blake D. Bauer

October 16–21, 2021

Tuition $750 + 5 nights

Join international bestselling author Blake D. Bauer for five days of deep healing and life changing self-care. Discover why suffering such as anxiety, depression, addiction, illness, and relationship problems are logical cries from your body, soul, and subconscious mind asking you to finally value, accept, forgive, honor, and be true to yourself now, in every situation.

This event is intended to offer you a safe environment to address core fears, transform negative thinking, and find clarity around shaping the life and health you want. It will provide connection and support while you address both old wounds as well as current habits of self-harm and self-betrayal.

Now more than ever we need to understand exactly how to find our center and how to care for our mental and emotional health in very grounded and practical ways. In honor of this, each day will also include mindfulness meditation and qi gong healing exercises, all of which are designed to help you train your mind and unlock the stuck energy, blood, and emotion that is keeping you unhappy, sick, or trapped.

This in-depth experience will help you understand how to stop hurting yourself, how to trust yourself, how to feel worthy, and how to finally enjoy your life without regret and without feeling guilty for wanting to be happy, well, and loved.

In this retreat, learn practical skills to:

  • Remain present and solution-minded in the face of fear and uncertainty
  • Identify the root causes of depression, anxiety, insecurity & physical illness
  • Overcome self-rejection and shame, and stop making yourself wrong
  • Move beyond self-doubt
  • Train your mind
  • Heal past wounds, traumas & habits of self-harm
  • Transform limiting beliefs
  • Clarify your direction forward
  • Live more fully in the present
