Yes, due to the specific nature of this retreat, access is only granted to biological females

No, absolutely not. All the group sessions are done FULLY CLOTHED and do NOT require any physical touching of the private parts and genitals

Sexual Armour is an instinctual survival mechanism. The Fight/Flight/Freeze Contraction causes trauma to get stuck on a deep cell level inside the tissue of the body. The Sexual Armour (shields and walls) that protects old wounds, will trigger patterns of fear, when under pressure, blocking any attempt you make to create long-lasting joyful life experiences.

Most of the Sexual Armour is found in the Sexual reproductive system, the genitals and around the heart, but every energy center (also know as Chakras) are vulnerable to the effect of this prolonged state of contraction. Sexual Armour can show up in the body as blockages and discomfort in the throat (communication center) and in the Solar Plexus (center of digestive system and stomach and lower back area) to name but a few.

With Sexual de-armouring, you liberate yourself from this state of contraction and in doing so your whole being transforms and becomes magnetic. It activates a new level of Self love and Self respect that allows you to set healthy boundaries and attract more loving relationships into your reality. You will become more playful, sensitive and present and experience more joy and pleasure in everything you do!

Sexual De-Armouring is a powerful energetic healing technique that specifically targets pain and trauma that is stuck deep inside the tissue of the body. In most cases this can be traced back to early childhood, all the way up to the present time and sometimes even go back lifetimes!

Imagine Sexual Armour as layers of protection or shields that cause the body to contract, this contraction stops the natural flow of health, vitality and sexual energy. This contraction is usually found in the lower energy centers and pelvic area. In the female body this trauma would be inside the yoni, the clitoris, the G-spot, the Cervix, the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, and the entire sexual reproductive system. Sexual trauma/contraction can also be found in other energy centers, like your solar plexus, heart and throat.

The Sexual De-Armouring techniques are designed to awaken the natural flow of energy in your body with the intention to remove contraction that is stored deep in the tissue of your body and the energy field around it. Sexual De-Armouring is a safe and transformative process that will free you on all levels of your being and during the session we focus on freeing all the energy centers, not only the lower chakras.

When you are Sexually de-armoured you are more in tune with your body and better equipped to read people’s energy and recognise red flags. You will be able to feel what their intentions are, instead of listening to the words they say. By moving into this type of listening, listening from the heart in connection to your lower energy centers, your gut feeling so to speak, you can start making better choices that will assist and support you in attracting more loving relationships. Some situations or people are just more toxic than others and by raising your awareness you will become more aware of this energy and start using your discernment to make better choices that are in alignment with your true heart’s desire.

A circle is the oldest form of gathering for human beings. Assembling this way feeds a primal need and raises the vibration of the planet! Everyone is equal in a circle so sharing and inclusion surface more readily.

I am BEYOND excited about our circle, which I will also refer to as our sacred Container. Because This is a time where you can feel safe and nourished by the energy of the group container, to let go of what is holding you back and feel the energy of Sandra and the group fuelling your new vision of the future and nourishing time lines.  The principles we will practice here will benefit you on a personal level and any of your present and future group endeavors.

Our Circle Principles serve as an understanding and agreement of intention and rules of conduct:

• State of Being: Circumstances don’t matter, our reaction to the circumstances is what matters. We promise to be the guardian of our state of being and place this principle of holding a high frequency at the top of the list. 

• Inner Wisdom:  We understand that we are Infinite Beings having a human experience and that every “experience” is a catalyst for us to grow, learn and evolve. The connection to our Future self and Higher self is the key to Self-realization, balance, harmony and oneness.

• Respect: We promise to respect the sacred container/circle principles. We understand and accept that the online teaching platform offered by Sandra is a sacred place, and we take full responsibility to show up with an open heart and open mind.

• Communication: We promise to cultivate and improve our loving communication skills inside and outside the circle. We will use the talking stick principle and only speak from direct experience – the “I” perspective. We refrain from speaking about “you” and actively control the human habit of reacting, recapitulating, cross-sharing & trying to rescue others. We are in full agreement that if any triggers, issues or problems arise…this will be communicated in private with Sandra. This will enhance the feeling of safety for all involved. 

• Safety: . We promise to protect each other’s right to anonymity and privacy. We promise full confidentiality and refrain from talking, sharing or discussing any information, outside the group container. This will encourage us all to drop our armour, walls and shield and step safely in a more open-hearted, vulnerable state of being. 

• Compassion: We actively open our hearts to everyone present, including ourselves. We practice non-judgment and non-infringement towards others. We celebrate all of the diverse ways of existence.

• Courage: We promise to be fully disclosed and transparent about our own blockages in order to show up authentically and learn from each other

• Silence: We consciously allow space for silence. We understand that so much of the magic happens within these pristine moments of silence.

• Diversity & Inclusion: We acknowledge all stories as the loving expressions of our shared humanity. We include all beliefs, all paths, all loving practices, and all people. We also honor ourselves with a welcoming heart.

• Simplicity: We value authenticity, determination, kindness, courtesy, playfulness, support, generosity, We appreciate our tears and laughter and encourage the simple blessings that shift and enhance the quality of our lives.

Let’s stay friends, that is why proof of travel insurance is REQUIRED. There are many reasons to take advantage of Travel Insurance for your upcoming retreat. Insurance is the only way to plan for the unexpected. You need trip insurance to protect your hard earned retreat investment against things that are out of your control. Things come up! Government restrictions, life factors, job conflicts, inclement weather, etc. All deposits for the retreats are non-refundable and non-transferable. They are non-refundable because when you make a deposit it holds your spot on a trip with very limited available spaces. This prevents someone else from booking that same space.  If something comes up preventing you from attending the retreat the ONLY way to recoup your investment is through travel insurance. Travel insurance can also cover the greater part of your other expenses, such as: airline tickets, emergency medical expenses while on the trip, and the remaining balance paid on top of your retreat deposit. Keep in mind that the best way to protect your investment is to buy a comprehensive “CANCEL FOR ANY REASON” trip insurance policy. Below are a few links you can check out.

https://www.travelexinsurance.com

https://www.insuremytrip.com

Be sure to purchase a “COMPREHENSIVE CANCEL FOR ANY REASON” policy and please note that not all trip insurance is created equal, please read the fine print! A good “Cancel for Any Reason'' policy usually refunds up to about 75% of non-refundable trips, even if you cancel up to 48 hours in advance of your retreat. That is great coverage! Some of the cheaper policies make it very difficult for you to submit a claim and there is no guarantee that your claim will be accepted. A comprehensive “Cancel for Any Reason” policy gives you the widest level of coverage and makes having to cancel a trip a lot less stressful. It’s really worth the extra cost!!!

GOOD QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF WHEN BUYING A TRIP INSURANCE POLICY

• Am I buying a comprehensive cancel for any reason policy? Make sure you select “cancel for any reason”.
• What amount of money will I get back if I cancel?
• When do I have to cancel by/notify the insurance company of a cancellation in order to qualify for the benefits?
• What are my coverage limits?
• Does my policy have good reviews? Have other travelers liked the policy?

All payments are final,  non-refundable and non-transferable

Proof of travel insurance is required
