~ Retreats Across America ~

Are you ready to getaway? 
To unwind? 
To Retreat into you?

Intuitive Life Coach, Lisa Gniady will be your guide for the 7th State of the “Retreats Across America'' journey. Since this is the 7th in the series, the focus will be Meditation and Sound Healing as we connect to the SEVENTH CHAKRA and the intuitive self. 

Our retreat will take place in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, an idyllic setting situated on 63 acres near Asheville, sometimes referred to as the “Sedona of the East”. 

Each of the The “Retreats Across America” Series offers the perfect opportunity to reset, renew and grow. The intention is for peace, healing and positive change for the earth, the location and ourselves. This series of retreats around the United States weaves a web of energetic light, love and healing.

Community Meals Sharing and Love

Community meals are an anchor for connection. In the creation process we bond and share as we prepare the food to nourish our hearts, bodies and souls, together creating beauty in our food. Our meals will take place in the Celestial Hall and will be community sharing potluck, for love and unity. I ask everyone to bring food to share for lunches and dinners.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Meditate under the stars, connect back with nature,
and allow the elements to be your guide.

Spend 4 nights / 5 days in the mountains of North Carolina at a beautiful Bliss House. This is a perfect setting to open to your intuition as we use the elements as a pathway to clarity and inspiration. We are blessed to be able to practice yoga, meditation, sound healing and gatherings inside the Celestial Center – a beautiful Mongolian-style yurt.

So excited to share!!!! 

Sound healing will be weaved rhythmically throughout our Cosmic Meditation Retreat. Imagine wind chimes, singing bowls, drums and the added bonus of both of my Paiste Gongs to enhance your experience. . 

Chanting with Kirtan Artist, Lady Anne (aka Kellyann Binkowski), who will lead us each day in Bhakti Yoga (live chanting to open your heart…). 

This is a time to be…

Our days will organically flow. The small, intimate retreat size is the perfect setting for connection and transformation. Be open and see what unfolds as we create an energetic bond to the elements, the mountains and the rivers. Through various forms of meditation we will harmonize to a different frequency to elevate ourselves on the path to opening our intuition.

Bless yourself in ways never imagined on this journey of self-discovery.

When you gather together 
There is a strength that rises from within 
That strengthens the whole
It is like twine
We tie a knot of community

Come to the mountains to tie knots of hope
Knots of remembering
To open to the best parts of ourselves
to empower
to find us, the parts that have been lost

In the everyday living
Leave feeling whole
Empowered
And with a new sense of purpose in your life.​

Don’t Miss this Powerful Opportunity to Activate!​

WHY TRAVEL WITH LISA

Travel is my passion, and has been since my youth. I am fortunate to have stepped foot on over 7 continents and visited almost every state in the U.S. These adventures have opened me to a sense of wonder and freedom.  Amazing personal growth has happened as I traveled. Every trip I embarked upon was like a wave moving me forward expanding my horizons. 

I invite you to join me on a journey to the light and be open to the adventures you will have, the people you’ll meet and unexpected gifts around every corner.
