Embodied Breathwork Journey
Breathwork allows us to be still, be with ourselves, and breathe and feel through our experiences. Intentional breathing allows the body to shift, release stuck emotions and tension and move into altered states of consciousness, giving us access to deep healing.
At Rising Light Retreats, we use silent "disco" headsets to enhance our practice by providing guests with a focused and uninterrupted environment. The immersive atmosphere created by the headphones, along with Laurie's soft guided presence, can help individuals delve deeper into their breathing exercises, promoting relaxation and mindfulness.
Laurie is a certified Breathwork Practitioner by Pause Breathwork which focuses on utilizing the power of breath for healing and transformation.
Sacred Tea Ceremony
Circle up for a nourishing tea ceremony near the crystal clear Mount Shasta Headwaters.
Give yourself full permission to open your heart and surrender into the sweet power of hawthorn, rose, and blue lotus alongside a tranquil running river, as the ethereal tones of alchemical sound bowls envelop you in their soothing vibrations.
Embrace the gentle flow of the river and as the aromatic scents to uplift you, creating a serene and transformative space for self-discovery and inner peace.
There is so much magick in these peaceful moments.
Laurie is a certified Tea Ceremonialist by Angela de la Agua, a highly purified channel for the Divine Feminine, and Cacao Priestess, in Joshua Tree, California.
VibroAcoustic Therapy Lounge and Pillow
“Don’t just hear sound.. FEEL sound”
Be immersed in a full body vibrational sound experience on our very special vibroacoustic lounge and full body vibroacoustic pillow. This experience can be enhanced with Reiki and Breathwork to begin the releasing process.
Specially curated music by David Gibson of Globe Institute, in Sausalito, is offered for these journeys.
VibroAcoustic therapy offers physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual benefits. These benefits are achieved primarily through responses within the brain when the body is exposed to sound waves, a form of mechanical energy.
Laurie is currently enrolled in a 40 hr certification program to be a VibroAcoustic Sound Practitioner with Vibro Sound.
Shamanic Drum Journeys in Nature
In Celtic traditions, the practice of embarking on a spiritual journey with the aid of drumming is often referred to as a "drum journey" or "shamanic journey." This process involves entering into an altered state of consciousness, often induced by the rhythmic and hypnotic beat of the drum, to connect with the spiritual world and seek guidance from spirit allies, such as power animals or ancestral spirits.
Together we will journey into a dreamlike state to meet your power animal or travel into inner earth to meet mythopoetic beings and access deep wisdom within.
Laurie trained with Shannon Hopkins of Blessingways to learn shamanic drum journeying.
Sound Ceremony with Sacred Anointing Oils
Laurie's sound healing ceremonies includes instruments such as alchemy & quartz crystal bowls, monochord, gong, shruti box, chimes, drum, freenote wave, vocal toning, humming and sacred anointing oils.
Pairing sound with sacred anointing oils like frankincense, myrrh, rose, spikenard and blue lotus, creates a powerful and transformative experience.
Anointing oils act as a conduit, amplifying and enhancing our energetic field. They also have their own unique properties and vibrations that align with specific energies and intentions, further deepening the experience.
Laurie channels her sound healings intuitively and has been playing music and singing she was 5 years old. She has music certifications from Life Changing Energy, Mind Body Music, and VoiceBio and apprenticed with gifted sound healer and psychic minister, Reverend Jessica Sharp.

Cannabis-Enhanced Meditation Ceremony
* Adults 21+ ONLY *
Cannabis-Enhanced Meditation Ceremonies are sacred, legal and safe experiences that use cannabis as the sacrament of choice to elicit amazing results.
Combining ancient ceremonial, alchemical and mindfulness techniques with modern transpersonal theory and evocative music sets to create a doorway to experiencing deeply transformational psychedelic journeys using cannabis sativa.
When used skillfully, and with the right set and setting, cannabis has the ability to shapeshift into other psychedelics. Cannabis-Enhanced Meditation Ceremonies are designed to elicit such experiences. The primary difference being a greater sense of agency and safety.
These ceremonies are intended for 1 to 2 people, or in a small group setting with additional sitters. Cannabis is more powerful than many believe Her to be, and here, we revere her Power. The experience is followed by sharing, personal reflection, snacks, and other intentional integration processes.
Proof of age required, plus a general health screening.
No other medicine/drugs/alcohol allowed during journey.
Laurie is a certified Cannabis-Assisted Meditation Guide by Medicinal Mindfulness, a Mindfulness-Based Psychedelic Therapy organization in Boulder, CO.
