A 3-Day All-Inclusive Sacred Ceremony Retreat  for Deep Healing & Renewal

There are moments in life when the soul whispers, “It’s time.”
And then there are moments when the whisper becomes a drumbeat—steady, undeniable, calling you deeper into your own becoming.

If you are reading these words, chances are that call has already begun.

For years now, at the Meehl Foundation, I have watched this pattern unfold with a sacred kind of awe. Men and women—veterans, first responders, trauma survivors, those who have carried far too much for far too long—finding their way to our land not because they’re looking for another retreat… but because their soul is finally tired of surviving. And ready to transform.

There’s something ancient that wakes up inside a person when they step onto sacred ground with the intention to heal. Something older than religion. Older than memory. Older even than the trauma itself.

It’s the remembrance that healing is not supposed to be done alone.

This is why we created our 3-Day All-Inclusive Sacred Ceremonies Immersion—a deeply guided, spiritually grounded, trauma-informed container for those who are ready to shed an old life and step into a new one.

Not in theory.
Not someday.
But now.

Why This Retreat Exists (And Why It Works)

Over the decades of working with trauma—especially combat trauma—I have learned something that most people never will:

Trauma doesn’t break people.
Trauma binds people.

It binds the mind into cycles.
It binds the body into tension.
It binds the spirit into silence.

And for many of the veterans I work with, it binds the identity so deeply that they forget who they were before the battlefield… or who they could be beyond it.

The Sacred Ceremonies Immersion was built to open that binding—gently, safely, and with ancient technologies that work far beneath language.

Our 3-day experience blends:

• Ancestral ceremonial practices

• Plant medicine–supported healing (where legally applicable)

• Tribal fire ritual & release ceremony

• Guided somatic trauma clearing

• Shamanic breathwork

• Sound healing & spiritual integration

• Community connection, shared meals, and deep rest

Nothing is forced.
Nothing is rushed.
Nothing is performative.

The entire arc of the 3 days is designed to take you from:

Disconnection → Softening → Release → Insight → Integration → Renewal

No one walks out of these ceremonies the same.

And they are not meant to.

Day One: The Descent — Remembering Why You Came

Every sacred journey begins with crossing a threshold.

For us, that threshold is literal.
When you arrive, you are greeted not as a guest but as a returning soul—someone whose journey is already known by the land itself.

The first evening is quiet on purpose.
We slow everything down.
We gather for grounding.
We circle around the fire as the sun goes down, listening to the crackle as if it’s speaking directly to each of us—which, in truth, it is.

This night is designed to do one thing:

Bring your nervous system out of survival mode.

Combat veterans often tell me this is the hardest part.
Not the ceremony.
Not the insights.
Not the release.

But the quiet.

For the first time in years—sometimes decades—your body begins to remember what safety feels like. And when safety returns, the soul begins to thaw.

We guide breath.
We open sacred space.
We welcome the unseen helpers of the land.
And we prepare you for the journey to come.

You don’t have to know what you need.
You don’t have to know what to ask.
You don’t have to perform strength.

Your only job is to arrive.

Day Two: The Ceremony — The Fire You Walk Through

This day is the heartbeat of the entire retreat.

The ceremony itself—whether plant-assisted or fully sober shamanic—meets every participant exactly where they are.

Some find emotion breaking open after years of silence.
Some meet memories they didn’t know they were still carrying.
Some meet ancestors, guides, or visions that feel more real than anything they’ve touched in years.

And some simply feel their body breathe for the first time in a long, long while.

What happens in ceremony is never random.

You don’t “hallucinate.”
You remember.

You remember that you are not broken.
You remember that your trauma is not your identity.
You remember that healing is not something done to you—it is something done through you.

Our facilitators guide every step with decades of experience in trauma, psychology, somatics, and spiritual practice. This is not recreational. This is not experimental. This is initiatory healing work in one of the safest, most grounded, most clinically and spiritually informed containers available.

Where needed, we support you with:

• Weighted grounding

• Breath guidance

• Shamanic tracking

• Trauma stabilization

• Individual support

• Gentle energetic clearing

For many veterans, this is the moment they say:

“I finally felt my soul again.”

The Sacred Fire Release Ritual

As night falls, we gather around the fire—the same fire that has held thousands of years of human ceremony.

You will write what you are ready to release.

Not as a ritual of erasing your past…
but as a ritual of ending its power over your future.

Fire transforms.
It doesn’t destroy—it changes form.

What once was burden becomes smoke.
What once was pain becomes light.
What once was shame becomes clean air rising.

This ritual alone has changed lives.

Day Three: The Return — Integrating the New You

The final morning begins with grounding breakfast, storytelling, and integration.

We help you understand:

• What your visions meant

• What your emotional experience revealed

• What your next steps are

• How to integrate without losing the breakthroughs

• How to carry the clarity home with you

We do not send you back into the world unfinished.

We help you anchor the new identity that ceremony revealed.

Many veterans describe this day as the first morning they’ve woken up feeling like themselves in years.

Soft.
Clear.
Alive.

Why Trauma Responds to Ceremony (When Nothing Else Has Worked)

Trauma is not stored in the mind.
It is stored in the body and the spirit.

This is why traditional therapies help—but often do not finish the healing.

Ceremony accesses:

• The subconscious

• The emotional body

• The energetic field

• The spiritual memory

• The somatic nervous system

• The ancestral lineage

All at once.

It reaches the layers that cognitive methods cannot touch.

Modern research agrees:

• Psilocybin-assisted therapy has shown major reductions in treatment-resistant PTSD and depression.

• Trauma survivors experience increased emotional openness and decreased avoidance after psychedelic-supported treatment.

• Veterans show significant reductions in suicidal ideation and emotional numbing after inner-directed plant medicine therapy.

• Ceremonial ritual increases coherence in the default mode network, aiding in trauma reprocessing.

• Guided mystical-type experiences correlate strongly with long-term positive psychological change.

(As always, we provide research links in our educational materials—but we keep our blog free of medical claims and compliant with legal guidelines.)

What Makes This Retreat Different From Anything Else Available

There are hundreds of “retreats” out there.

But very few:

• Are deeply trauma-informed

• Understand combat and operational trauma

• Use genuine shamanic lineage practices

• Include integration before, during, and after

• Provide all-inclusive care

• Work with small, intimate groups

• Offer personalized guidance throughout

• Ground everything in safety, nervous-system science, and spirit

Our work is not tourism.
It is not a trend.
It is not “spiritual entertainment.”

It is sacred.

It is clinical.
It is ancestral.
It is human.
It is holy.

And it is designed for those who are ready for real transformation.

Who This Retreat Is For

CPTSD
✔ First responders & medical professionals
✔ Trauma survivors
✔ Individuals facing major life transitions
✔ Those carrying invisible emotional weight
✔ People who know there must be more to life than survival
✔ Anyone hearing the call of their own soul

If you feel the pull, trust it.

People who are not meant to be here don’t feel the call.

Who This Retreat Is Not For

This retreat is not for those looking for a recreational experience, a quick fix, or a spiritual thrill.

It is for those ready to transform.

And transformation requires willingness, honesty, and surrender.

Your Invitation

If you feel something stirring inside you…

If your heart feels pulled forward…

If the fire inside you whispers, “This is your time…”

Then this retreat is your doorway.

Not because we will save you.
But because you are ready to save yourself—and you simply need the right sacred container.

I have watched thousands walk this path.

I’ve watched veterans shake for the first time as their body releases grief it’s carried since deployment.

I’ve watched grown men weep in relief as they feel safe again.

I’ve watched women reclaim pieces of themselves they thought were forever lost.

I’ve watched souls step out of ceremony with new eyes—clear, steady, open.

And I’ve watched the land itself welcome them home.

Are You Ready?

If something in you is saying “yes,” even if the mind is unsure, trust the yes.

That whisper…
That tug in the chest…
That tiny spark of hope…

That is your soul remembering the path back to itself.

Your healing.
Your clarity.
Your life beyond trauma.
Your unburdened self.

All of it is waiting.

Join us for the 3-Day All-Inclusive Sacred Ceremonies Retreat.
Your transformation begins the moment you say yes.
