Sanctuary Series

It is TIME. Our retreat is now open to the public!

The Sensuality Series Retreat – a safe space for deep intimacy and conscious connection is now LIVE with limited spots filling up. Organized and facilitated by Paige Zen and Amber Rose, this 5 day/4 night retreat (August 22-26th) is designed to bring out all the MAGIC and sensual vibes.

Imagine 5 days dropping deep into your body, journeying into timelessness where you get to discover the INFINITE pleasures that live within you.

5 days of being completely offline and fully immersed in the depths of sensuality and being present with your body.

  • Beyond your mind
  • Where there’s nothing to do
  • Nothing to become

Only you, coming back home to the remembrance of who you really are.

When you walk away from this experience, you will feel the EMBODIMENT that your body is your temple and it is time to come back home.

We have been dreaming of offering a retreat like this for quite some time.

What makes this one different and special?

This retreat will leave you feeling sensual and sexy, while giving you the space, time, and tools to fall even deeper in love with yourself and others. We’ll be offering a curated variety of activities, exercises, and discussions leaving you feeling more empowered and downright alive when it comes to intimacy, sensuality and pleasure.

You will be pampered with decadent food and drinks made in-house by our very own private chef, Cory Eft. You will be residing in a TEMPLE home and receive the most luscious goodie bag of hand-picked items. Your time with no distractions to attend curated playshops and activities that will move your soul and break your heart open. THIS is your chance to explore all your senses and learn more about the deeper layers of your beautiful self.

It is time for you to turn up the heat on what self-love means to you and let the world see you shine! If you are curious about how to heal your relationship with sexuality, your body, and your self-image – this is a great place to start.

This is for the soul that knows that physical and emotional intimacy with ourselves and each other is a way to personal fulfillment.

This is for the person who wants to open their heart and get seriously turned on.
