ILLUMINATE REtREAT
August 22 - 25th, 2025
Join us for a rejuvenating wellness retreat where you can reconnect with your inner self and take the next step on your healing journey. During this retreat, you will have the opportunity to embody the light being who you truly are by letting go of limiting beliefs, fears, and old traumas.
You will feel wonderfully present and restored!
At our retreat, surrounded by Sangre de Cristo mountains in the San Luis Valley, you will not only reconnect with your essential nature but also release limiting beliefs, fears, and old traumas.
You will wake up to the crisp air to engage with others or take a stroll to the natural hot springs for a morning soak before your day begins.
You can experience healing and transformation through unique practices such as sound baths, movement, meditation, breathwork, cacao, and intuition-based practices.
You will also have the support of a group of like-minded souls, enhancing the depth of your experience. As you integrate and reinforce what you learn, new understandings will unfold, empowering you to manifest your BEST life.

By the end of this weekend retreat you may:
Decrease anxiety, stress and manage sleep issues
Improve clarity and intuition
Improve your inner strength and feel empowered
May be free from aches, pain and stiffness.

You will have clarity and understanding into your core values and boundaries. You will practice true vulnerability and align yourself and with others.

Joyful Journey is where Kass, Inspired Warrior Project founder, really began her healing journey about 6 years ago.
When she arrived at Joyful Journey she realized it was in the San Luis Valley, where she used to spend time on her families’ land as a child. So as an adult it brought back all of her past traumas that had happened to her in life and there in the San Luis Valley.
Though that does not stop Kass from going back to the most amazing and beautiful place that has and is very healing. At the retreat, you will learn the deeper meaning as to why the retreat is being held here and the traumatic background of Kass and what has brought her to the healing and resilience she is today as she guides you through the beginning of your journey of being an Inspired Warrior yourself!
