"The Women’s Circle opened me up like never before. I felt everything that I’ve been holding in for a long time just come out. I felt a sense of peace. I felt safe. I also learned I should trust my own instincts more often. I felt no judgement - that everyone was equal."

Rachel Jesien is a Seeress, Celtic Shamanic Priestess and Yogini dedicated to the healing of the Earth and all of Her inhabitants. Her spiritual transformation began with a 45 degree scoliotic curvature of her spine, which left her with a broken dance career and paralyzed with pain. Her suffering became a catalyst for transformation as she began studying the physical body in depth, and became an expert in the world of Yoga for Backcare & Scoliosis. As her physical body became more aligned, her psychic abilities opened up exponentially; a gift that had been long suppressed since childhood. She began studying Shamanism with Yukiko Amaya, long time apprentice of Don Miguel Ruiz, and was called in vision to visit Sacred sites across South America, Australia and Europe. In 2017, Rachel began her Priestess of Goddess training in the Glastonbury Goddess spiralage. Rachel has since been guided to steward a piece of land in the Hudson River Valley, where she leads retreats, women's circles, and healing seminars each year. Her vision for reconnecting groups of women to the cycles of the moon and heartbeat of the Earth is of utmost importance. She now guides a global community in aligning body, mind and soul through spiritual mentoring and leading Goddess Centered healing ceremonies in the Avalonian tradition.

What is the Covid Safety Protocol while on retreat?
The Stony Point Center has been a very safe and wonderful place for retreats throughout the pandemic. They have installed individualized wall cooling/heating units in each room for personalized airflow. Each room also has its own en suite bathroom, so at most there would only ever be two people sharing. If you are not planning on staying with a friend/family member and you are concerned about sharing a room, you may consider choosing the single room option. NY currently does not have a mask mandate, but you are welcome to wear a mask, if you feel more comfortable. Our practice spaces are large enough that you will have plenty of distance between yoga mats and meditation cushions. You will be encouraged to bring your own mat. And other than that, we’ll have lots of outdoor activities, like fire ceremony, walking labyrinth and hiking.
When does the retreat begin and end?
Retreat attendees can arrive anytime after 5pm on Friday March 18th to settle into your room. Dinner will be a casual grab and go around 6pm, with our Opening ceremony beginning at 7:30pm. We will finish up around 2:30pm on Sunday afternoon.

⫸ Yoga Mat and any props you may need (blocks, belts etc…)
⫸ Journal and pen
⫸ Warm, waterproof hiking layers
