Yes, you can learn to hear intuition above the noise in your head, and even better, KNOW what to do next.

The fact is we are light beings in a “meatsuit.”

This meatsuit interferes with our clear connection to Spirit. Our thoughts, experiences, and conditioning unknowingly taint or obstruct messages we receive. We’re left feeling frustrated and uncertain.

We know in our gut the answer to every question is communicated to us continually, nudge by nudge, and we long to hear it unequivocally.

Plus, we feel compelled to step into our full power as spiritual beings on earth.

This inspired retreat is designed to guide you to YOUR next level. We’ll connect to angels, clear our fields, and work with the mind’s tendencies rather than against it. Find clarity on how to hear clear intuition above the second guessing.

How? We’ll have high-level discussion sessions, yoga, meditation, muscle testing, Yoga Nidra (deep relaxation to reprogram your subconscious mind), storytelling, angels, breathing exercises, chakras, and more. This retreat is Spirit led.

FYI — Your human meatsuit is not a problem to be corrected by spirituality. We don’t do spiritual practice to make up for our perceived shortcomings and mistakes. There’s a Hindu story about a time when humans strayed from spirit, so the god Shiva (who represents the most enlightened part of us) got angry and impulsively spewed fire from his third eye towards humans. The goddess Saraswati instantly morphed into a river to intercept and absorb the fire, redirecting it safely underground. Had the fire reached the humans, it would have burned up every bit of untruth (maya), everything that doesn’t serve their highest purpose, leaving them as “perfect” people. So there would be no lessons to learn, no reason to take human birth and live our messy lives. The goddess knew we need “missteps” in order to learn and grow, to ascend and raise our level of consciousness.

We don’t blame Shiva for his impulsive reaction! We’ve all felt frustration when others are exhibiting “bad” behavior; it drives us bonkers. And notice that the goddess saves the day! We’ll delve into lots of these stories during our retreat!

WHEN:

Check-in begins at 4pm on Friday, January 19 and we will begin our retreat at 7pm.

Check-out at noon on Sunday, January 22.

Join us for as much as you are able!

In the weeks prior to the retreat, you will be emailed the itinerary so you opt for additional appointments (at your expense) at the PureRejuv Wellness Center. Choose from massage, integrative medicine, chiropractic, ayurvedic services, etc.

ONE LAST NOTE:

You probably feel in your gut this awakening that is happening now, You KNOW you are meant for more. I’m so glad you’ll be joining us. Blessings to you. Cheers!

Love, Nicole

Sacred Space
The Sri Vidya Shrine is the spiritual heart of the Himalayan Institute. This sanctuary offers an ideal setting for silent meditation and group spiritual practice, a cornerstone of the Himalayan Tradition for thousands of years. Open to seekers of all backgrounds and traditions, the Shrine provides a serene, sacred space for meditation, quiet reflection, prayer, and contemplation.
Nourishing Meals
Our nutritionally balanced vegetarian meals are thoughtfully prepared to nourish body, mind, and spirit. Each of our three daily meals is designed to be easily digestible and to support a meditative lifestyle. Sharing meals here naturally fosters connection, offering both deep nourishment and a sense of community.
Loving Community
The Himalayan Institute welcomes people from all walks of life. With a blend of short-term guests, long-term visitors, and a vibrant residential community, the atmosphere here is warm, inviting, and rooted in kindness, generosity, and service. It’s a place where friendships form naturally, often becoming the kind of connections that feel like family, and last a lifetime.
Rest in Nature
Nestled in the rolling hills of the Poconos, the Himalayan Institute’s 400-acre campus offers breathtaking views, scenic hiking trails, and quiet spaces for reflection and contemplation. Walking is a favorite activity, whether along our groomed trails or meandering paved roads, inviting both movement and mindful presence in nature.
Conscious Simplicity
At the Himalayan Institute, we embrace simplicity in all aspects of life, from our surroundings to our approach to yoga. By minimizing distractions, we create space to strengthen the inner self and quiet the mind. Guided by authenticity and grounded in philosophy rather than frills, we support a path of meaningful personal growth.

The 24/7 Tea Lounge offers a variety of herbal teas for anytime enjoyment.
