   *KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. Leave this retreat divinely informed with a new life plan and focused vision for an uplifted life experience moving forward. You will gain the insights and tools to greatly uplevel your life, so that you leave feeling not only empowered from the experience yet have the tools to continue to grow and lead your most inspired, and meaningful life. Ever feel like you really enjoy an experience then after some time go back to square one in your life, not addressing the root to repeating patterns and limitations nor knowing which keys required to unlock deeper potential to lead the purposeful life you were born too. This is a very different type of opportunity to help you gain insights and momentum towards this more purposeful existence, where you can more easily actualise more personal power to manifest into greater aspects in life than previously accessible. Partnering with a world renowned vedic astrologer (From the worlds leading Jyotisha lineage), specifics are discovered relating to your life’s purpose, karmic blocks (and specifically through special UPAYA in how to remove them), what desires you have that will be karmically supported, which practices optimise your potential, as well as health advices and more. A unique coaching system that is very specific as opposed to a one shoe fits all approach and due to identifying which desires are not karmically supported, this helps you harness energy in the life you were born to live, saves you wasting resources, time and precious energy. Manifestation is real yet the reason one wellness coach may make 6 figures and trys to teach the method to others and many times it doesnt work is that not everyone is meant to be a wellness coach.. not everyone is in the karmic cycle where the approach this person is teaching fructifies. In this very unique system you discover exactly how to maximise potential, time, resources while being more fulfilled because your in line with your purpose. Gaining insight into how to manifest within your unique karmic parameters is a rare and very blessed opportunity, to lead your most empowered life, optimising peace, happiness, wellbeing and energy while progressing and advancing materially and spiritually. As a side note: After what i’ve discovered pertaining to the intricacy of this science i would never go to just anyone as there is so many aspects to discovering the accuracy. I feel very fortunate to work with the worlds best - literally. There is more to this story so feel welcome to connect with me for more information about how I am sure about my statement.
