The SoulPod Retreat
DATES: April 23-27 2026
LOCATION: Joshua Tree, CA
THEME: Contact
Beyond the noise of everyday life, there’s a signal calling you home. In the vast stillness of the desert, we’ll learn to listen—beyond the body, beyond the mind—to the field that connects all. This is more than a retreat. It’s an activation into a new resonance. A field where heart frequencies align, and new forms of intelligence become possible. Come make contact—with yourself, with others, with the field of possibility. There will be your life before this retreat, and after.
Limited to an intimate group of 12 lightbeings.
Who is it for?
If something inside you is calling, you belong here. You don’t need to be advanced in meditation or energy work. You simply need to be willing to open up to the full potential of who you already are.
This retreat is for anyone who feels the pull to:
activate the inner technology that turns belief into knowing
stabilize future-self identity and live from coherent signal
experience what happens when twelve humans hold “love + above” together
bridge mysticism and science inside their own nervous system
step into leadership that emanates from alignment, not ambition
If you feel called to become the kind of human who quietly architects the next timeline—this is your initiation.
Reviews
What can you expect?
This will be a new frequency you enter with an open heart. You’ll be guided through four transformational phases — landing, activation, contact, and integration. You will reorient to what is calling to your heart, learn how to activate your inner technology to the degree of your natural readiness, and then start creating your new reality.
Together in the high desert, we will move through a carefully sequenced field experience designed to rewire your nervous system for coherence and make the invisible feel practical.
What is included:
4 nights on premises luxury accommodation.
Yummy, healthy meals and snacks from our resident chef.
Immersive field sessions where neuroscience meets mysticism — breathwork, somatic entrainment, and coherence practices that train your body to hold elevated states safely.
Group activations that use resonance physics to amplify perception — turning intuition into a measurable signal.
Desert meditations under the stars that open the door to higher-dimensional awareness and authentic contact experiences.
Integrative workshops that translate those expanded states into daily reality — so the “download” becomes a direction, not just an experience.
Future-self embodiment work that teaches you how to generate the emotion of your next timeline until it becomes your baseline.
Community coherence — twelve humans in synchronized nervous systems, each contributing to the collective signal field.
Expect deep connection, spacious silence, moments of laughter, and the unmistakable feeling that something inside you — ancient and intelligent — just came online.
