A magical day of manifestation, restoration, energy clearing, and intentional creation under the August sky at The Wyatt Wiebe Center for Healing, just 30 minutes north of Edmonton.
There are certain days that feel like they carry a little more magic, and August 8th is one of them.
The Lion’s Gate Portal has long been associated with manifestation, courage, purpose, abundance, and stepping into the next version of yourself with more clarity and confidence. It is a day to pause, listen, clear what has been weighing you down, and choose what you are ready to call into your life with intention.
This day retreat is your invitation to do exactly that.
Join Trista and Kristine for a deeply nourishing and intentional Lion’s Gate Portal experience created to help you restore your energy, clear what feels heavy, and open yourself to what is ready to be created.
This year, our day will be centered around the wisdom of the 5 elements.
Earth. Water. Fire. Air. Spirit.
Throughout the day, we will move through these elements as a way of preparing the body, heart, mind, and energy for potent manifestation. Because manifestation is not only about what you want. It is also about becoming clear enough, grounded enough, open enough, and available enough to receive it.
Earth will help us land, ground, and feel supported.
Water will help us soften, release, and reconnect with flow.
Fire will help us clear, activate, and remember our own power.
Air will help us open the breath, voice, and vision.
Spirit will help us connect to intuition, intention, and the unseen threads guiding us forward.
Throughout the day, you will be guided through practices that support both deep rest and powerful intention setting. We will work with smoke clearing, mantra, sound, rhythm, reflection, creativity, elemental connection, and Yoga Nidra to help you enter deeper states of relaxation and receptivity.
This retreat is not about trying force you into your next chapter, it is about making way for what is trying to unfold within you. It is about clearing, opening and softening to all that is possible and preparing the body, heart, and mind to receive it.
You can expect a beautiful blend of:
Sound healing with handpans, drums, flutes, and sacred sounds
Deep Yoga Nidra for intention setting
Smoke clearing and energetic release
Connection with the 5 elements throughout the day
Mantra singing under the open sky
Reflection and guided manifestation work
A meaningful craft to anchor your intentions
Pool and hot tub time for rest, play, and integration
A nourishing dinner in community that considers allergies and dietary needs
Refreshments throughout the day
A powerful intention-setting ritual at 8:08pm on 8/8
The day will build toward our 8:08pm intention ritual, held on the most potent date and time of the Lion’s Gate Portal. Together, under the August sky, we will bring together the elements, the practices, the clearing, the rest, the sound, and the energy of the day to name what we are ready to welcome, what we are ready to release, and what we are ready to become available for.
Come spend the day in ritual, sound, nourishment, sisterhood, elemental magic, and intention.
