Voice Medicine Retreat 2027

Join a transformative 5 night/ 6 day retreat led by Hayley Saraswati, Keenan Kinnear & Ayana, presenting the unparalleled power of your voice as medicine. Dive into a deep blend of voice work, ritual, and ceremony, all to unearth authenticity, expression, and connection. In the protective embrace of our retreat community, you’ll traverse self-care, intimacy, vulnerability, and the profound depths of music and singing. This is more than just a retreat – it’s a journey to unchartered territories of consciousness, rich with inspiration and connection.

This unique retreat is not just about self-discovery. It’s about transformation and healing. We provide a nurturing environment that fosters change, helps in shedding old beliefs, and paves the way for new insights. Whether you’re bathed in bliss or navigating inner purification, we will support and guide you. As you return to your Self, you will carry away unforgettable memories, soulful music, and integrative exercises to elevate your everyday life and connection to your own voice as a healing tool. 

The retreat welcomes both women and men, regardless of their musical background. Whether you’re eager to unveil the beauty of your voice, see vocal exercises as healing rituals, or are a therapist looking to broaden your horizons, this retreat has something for you. Activities range from Vocal Discovery and Sound Baths to Song Circles, all set amidst the serenity of a private cove on the shores of Lake Atitlán. What sets this retreat apart is its unique blend of music, self-discovery, and connection to the earth. It’s about liberating your voice, and in turn, your power, all while forging deep connections with your heart and soul. Embrace a journey that will transform fears, ignite love, compassion, and joy, and introduce you to the awe-inspiring beauty of Lake Atitlán.
