The retreat was infinitely more than I could ever have imagined. Each day contained intense engagement with how I experience life. I had never focused on my body as the basis or starting point for my spirituality. Yet, the more and more engaged I was with my own body, the more spiritually connected I felt. The skills and training at the retreat have become a daily practice and I am still uncovering new benefits. I engage my work more energetically and process out negative energy on a daily basis so it doesn’t build up in my body. Everyone should do this retreat at least once in their life. The sooner, the better!

Being a part of this retreat was absolutely life-changing. You dig deep into who you truly are, to discover your true essence, and it’s a beautiful journey. The group of people that went through this retreat were beautiful souls and we all transformed together from day one. If anyone is looking for a life-transforming opportunity and they’re ready to do the work that it takes, I recommend this retreat 100%.

Even though I had started many of these practices on my own because of some severe chronic, total lifetime pain, the [Sedona Wellness] Retreat did in 5 days what took me years to learn. In addition, they were able to teach me on a level I had not been able to learn on my own. The energy of the instructors, especially Ichibuko and MJ, was so instrumental in achieving a higher level of energy and practices I had not been able to achieve on my own. They did not miss a beat and were beyond professional and energizing. For anyone looking to heal either the mind, body or both, this is a retreat that can teach you the principles and practices to achieve pure health.

[During the retreat] we were guided so beautifully through some of our hardest traumas, heartbreaks, and deep pain. Be prepared to work and dig into uncomfortable parts of yourself. But it is so, SO worth it. I have 2 autoimmune disorders and chronic pain issues in my knee, [so] mobility can be hard for me and I fight frustration about it. But the meditations, exercises, stretches, and classes at this retreat helped me understand that I am not my pain, but that pain is mine. The practices I’ve taken home and incorporated into my everyday life are paying massive dividends already. This isn’t just a one-time retreat. This is a powerful philosophy, practice, and way of life that should be used every single day. I cannot rate this experience highly enough.

This retreat was the most incredible experience I have ever been a part of [and] brought me home to myself, to my authenticity, to my truth… it gave me the space and guidance to delve deeper and hone my inherent strength and wisdom. I am eternally grateful to the staff and Mago for their compassion, patience, and warmth. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart!

This retreat was eye-opening to the amazing possibilities of self-awareness, healing, forgiveness, courage, and internal peace. I learned about mediation, mindfulness, and replenishing energy on a level I never experienced. It was a life-changing experience that unlocked my feelings of wholeness, coherency and being fearless. I recommend this amazing Sedona Mago retreat with Ilchibuko and her wonderful teachers and staff, to everyone!
