ASSISI – ITALY
Sacred journey of self-discovery in Assisi
A path to inner balance and harmony, and unity consciousness within
ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE
This journey is more than a visit to sacred places; it is a conscious journey of self-discovery — an invitation to walk the ancient paths of Assisi while simultaneously turning inward, reconnecting with your inner world and remembering your true essence.
Throughout our time together, I will share inspiring stories and lesser-known insights into the lives and teachings of St. Francis and St. Clare. We will visit the great Basilicas as well as more hidden, quieter sacred sites — places where the subtle energies of the land invite deeper attunement, presence, and inner listening.
While the conscious journey naturally carries certain religious elements through the saints connection with the Church — the very institution Francis and Clare helped to reform in their time — our approach will be primarily spiritual rather than religious.
We will meet them as embodiments of awakened consciousness, as ascended masters whose lives continue to transmit profound wisdom and healing.
Alongside our outer journey, we will engage in gentle yet meaningful inner work. Through guided self-awareness practices, energetic attunement, and conscious connection with the land, the element of water, you will be supported in returning to your own center.
We will explore the sacred balance of masculine and feminine energies, open into unity consciousness, and consciously integrate the blissful, soul-awakening frequencies that are so naturally present simply by being in Assisi.
No previous spiritual experience is required — only an open mind, a willing heart, and a curiosity to walk both the outer and inner path.
The journey is in small groups of maximum 7 persons plus me.
Join me on this spiritual retreat, adventure in the sacred lands of Assisi, walking in the footsteps of Saint Francis and Saint Clare, exploring their wisdom, and allowing a journey of inner transformation, peace, and profound soul renewal.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
There will be a significant amount of walking, and Assisi is built on a hillside, which means plenty of steps and steep paths both up and down.
The hike up the sacred mountain to the hermitage takes nearly two hours and is very steep, with rocky terrain. Please only sign up if you feel physically prepared for these challenges. We will cover many miles throughout the pilgrimage.
