Why should you join us for this immersive 5-day experience? 

...because all stuckness, dis-ease & emotional pain hold the answers to your physical healing, spiritual growth and personal awakening.

And unless you meet, process, and truly integrate your suffering, it repeats, intensifies and leads to greater pain, dysfunction and illness.

Join us to release the weight of past trauma, shed the shackles of limiting patterns, and come home to the innate wisdom held within the physical, energetic, and emotional body.

It's time to rediscover your authentic self and honour the path that brought you here.

  • It is hard to describe Keli’s capacity to facilitate understanding and healing. Her spirit is light and playful; however, she can help lead you to the darkest places and hold the space for you as you bring light to them.
  • The work I have done with Keli has opened my life up to move past illness into health. Keli was my North Star during a very dark time and I will be forever grateful.
  • I am very grateful for her as my spiritual healing seems to be unbreakably linked to my physical healing and the work I have done with her has opened my life up to move past illness into health.

  • You will transform your stress, dysfunctional patterns and past traumas so that you can begin to realize what’s possible for you and those you love.

  • You'll discover how your health is linked to suppressed emotions and spiritual disconnection and you'll restore your body’s natural healing response and innate knowingness.

  • You will gain appreciation for and see the perfection in your imperfections so you can fall deeply in love with YOU! You'll rediscover your worth, feel confident in who you are and step into your most authentic self.

  • You will release the grip of emotional pain (resentments, anger, anxiety, shame, etc.) and attain the freedom, joy and ease you’ve been waiting for. You'll learn to process emotions and uncover peace that surpasses all understanding.

Within this sacred space, you’ll be held and supported through deep healing and gain life-long tools to unlock lasting transformation.

This retreat isn't just about gaining more knowledge—it's about coming home and experiencing real transformation on a cellular level.

"I can’t say enough about what a gift it is to work with Keli. There is something very special about her that words cannot fully describe. Keli has a gracious, non-judgement way of helping you unlock the layers of feelings and emotions hidden away inside yourself. She is 100% present, warm, and accepting. Keli’s mastery shines through in her ability to connect, create a safe environment, teach, and help guide you back to your inner truth, knowing, and strength. I am forever grateful for having Keli help me navigate my life’s journey.”

"Keli was my North Star during a very dark time and I will be forever grateful. Keli lives what she teaches and it is so obvious in her ability to trust the process, even when you may not be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I am very grateful for her as my spiritual healing seems to be unbreakably linked to my physical healing and the work I have done with her has opened my life up to move past illness into health."

“Keli's kind, gentle soul guided me home to the safety and the truth of my Being—I was able to go so deep into my process and meet the darkness—all I had made up about myself and the world. In this meeting, there was a holy encounter where the darkness just evaporated into love. The relief and joy from this experience cannot be fully explained in words. I experienced a massive transformation, and I'm now able to meet my life challenges from a new perspective with courage and confidence, knowing all is OK. I feel a greater connection to myself, to life and to God.”

Are you ready to step boldly into who you really are and live the life you were meant to live?

We’ll use Conscious Breathwork, Intuitive Movement, Somatic Processing, and Sacred Community as profound tools to meet and integrate our stress, pain and trauma. You’ll be held and supported through deep healing and gain life-long tools to unlock lasting transformation.

This immersive workshop isn't just about gaining more knowledge—it's about coming home and experiencing real transformation on a cellular level.

  • Conscious Breathwork & Intuitive Movement

    You’ll be held in a sacred space and guided through Conscious Breathwork and Intuitive Movement Journeys where you’ll develop a deeper felt-sense as you come home in a profound way to the wisdom found in the body. You’ll open to the timeless, heart-centred knowledge and insight as you dissolve restricted, limited narratives and patterns.

  • Sacred Witnessing & Conscious Spaceholding

    Having the right support and safe community is vital! In this transformational retreat, you’ll receive trained, conscious, support that allows you to be witnessed and held in a relational setting and is thus part of the healing process. Most, if not all, of our wounded parts of self happened in a relational container, meaning that the only way we can truly heal them is also in a relational container and sacred community.

  • Somatic, Inquiry Healing Processes

    During the retreat, there will be daily workshops (nine in total) to support your deepest healing. Each workshop will be focused on a particular segment of the physical, energetic, and emotional body. We will use somatic processes to release tension, restriction and suppressed emotions and pain to allow the body find ease, the mind to become clear and the emotions to move freely. 

  • Re-attuning to Nature and Nourishing Mind, Body and Soul

    This beautiful lake front location is surrounded by beaches, rolling hills and bluffs and world renowned vineyards. We all know—even if only intuitively—that the natural elements are astounding in their innate power and awe-inspiring beauty; hence, their ability to facilitate healing at all levels—mind, body, and soul. The natural world craves our aligned presence and embodied power, just as much as we crave the natural world’s presence, grounding, raw, heart-centred power.

Until we can embrace our hurt and receive the wisdom hidden within our stuckness, we will continue to deny who we are meant to be.

If you're ready to step boldly into who you were created to be, join us for this Coming Home immersion.

Our physical sensations, deeply held emotions, and daily challenges are messages that carry with them wisdom, healing, personal growth, and spiritual transcendence.

Yet we live in a world where we are judged and judge at every turn. Our fragmented sense-of-self seeks to fill the cracks from people, things or situations on the outside. All of which result in the avoidance of our painful feelings that must be felt if we desire healing on any level.

We have gotten good at redirecting this pain by projecting in onto the world around us, stuffing it down with substances or positive affirmations or numbing it with denial or distractions—anything to avoid facing and feeling it.

When we lovingly embrace and acknowledge our pain true healing and awakening happens—the real authentic YOU emerges.

True healing, transformation, and awakening is not something that can be understood until it happens on a cellular level.


  • You have a deep desire to unlock the power of conscious breathwork, somatic inquiry, and embodied presence in a sacred community so that you can meet the divine YOU and the grace that is awaiting you.

  • You’re ready to face, feel and heal your past pain, challenges or trauma and would like to deepen your understanding and embodiment of your true nature and karmic purpose.

  • You feel deeply called to be a living example of healing and awakening so you can serve at the deepest level; yourself, those you love, struggle to love or the clients you work with.

  • You’ve had enough of your own suffering, victim narrative and the damage they've inflicted on you and others. You are committed to expanding your own healing and awareness on the path to personal, professional and spiritual development.


  • You’re not ready to take radical responsibility for your emotions, the narratives that accompany them, and the behaviours and damaging or limiting patterns that result.

  • You would rather adhere to positive thinking, visualization, raising your vibration than do the deep emotional work necessary to awaken to your true nature.

  • You’re looking for a yoga or relaxation retreat. You’re not ready to turn inwards or believe that exploring your inner depths will be a never-ending painful Pandora's box.

  • You aren’t ready to surrender to Divine Grace to meet what Life has to offer. You’d rather demand things from life or moment, and seek pleasure and avoid pain.

Are you ready to heal on a somatic, energetic and emotional level so you can experience the peace joy and freedom you've been waiting for?

Founder and Lead Trainer

Keli is no stranger to mind, body and spirit awareness. She first started practicing transcendent meditation at the age of six. Keli is now a Chopra Center Certified Transcendent Meditation (PSM®) Instructor, Conscious Relationship, Uncoupling and Parenting Coach and Conscious Connected Breathwork Facilitator, Mentor and Trainer.

Keli is also a published author, has professionally studied with Gabor Maté and is the founder of both The Other Side of Average – Therapy for the Soul and the TOSA Method.

Keli has trained, mentored and guided over 100 breathwork facilitators and organized and supported breathwork retreats/graduation training events.

Keli's commitment to conscious living has allowed her to raise 3 beautiful children with mindfulness, overcome limiting self-concepts, heal her body of disease, and accomplish pain-free childbirth.

With well over 25 years of both meditation and somatic healing experience, her gift is in holding sacred space and helping you learn and master the three most essential tools that help align you with your soul’s purpose — your essential nature and the truest expression of yourself — all whilst healing and transcending past resentments and stories that have kept you stuck and in pain.

It is then that you experience the miracles and fulfillment of life in every moment and embody the presence to hold safe space for others to evolve beyond their story.

Keli’s philosophy is not to become your guru or healer but rather to hold the space needed for you to bring light to your darkness, helping you awaken the power you already have.

You will also be supported by TOSA Breathwork Students and Certified Facilitators

You will also be supported by our awesome team of both breathwork students and certified facilitators. Our students have been working closely with Keli over the last 8-18 months, taking part in Level One and Level Two of TOSA's "More Than A Breathwork Training."

The students are participating in this retreat both as participants on their own healing journeys and as support for their in-person training for their Level Three breathwork certification. Our students and facilitators come from the USA, Canada, and Europe, this diverse group brings their own unique gifts and talents as space holders, and we're thrilled to have their support!
