Phoenix Rising
A Kali-Inspired Journey
Our Dawn Ranch retreat brought together 19 incredible women for a weekend of connection, renewal, and nourishment. With a stunning redwood backdrop, warm hospitality, and food so good no one wanted to cook again, it was the perfect setting for transformation.
The theme Phoenix Rising: A Kali-Inspired Retreat guided our time together — releasing what no longer serves to make space for new beginnings. Mollie led us in workshops on fierce self-compassion, and Jesi introduced chanting into meditation with “Om Krim Kali,” an invocation for strength and protection. The practice reminded us that even simple rituals — chanting, breathing, sitting in rhythm with nature — carry deep healing power.
This retreat also carried a thread of ancestry and tradition. Jesi shared stories of her grandmother, who greeted each morning with prayer and chanting. It was a reminder that Ayurveda and yoga are not about fancy tools but about presence, rhythm, and gratitude.
