Shakti Rising Women’s Retreat Series

Elemental Embodiment: Water Initiation

May 19 - 22, 2022

At Spiral Dance Ranch in the Texas hill country

We are gathering four times over the coming year to cultivate our potent elemental life force energies together in community. With the elements of Water, Earth, Fire and Air, we embark on a journey in the potent lands of Spiral Dance Ranch to unplug from the grid and connect to our truest desires and dreams so that we can create and experience a life of juicy energies and soul purpose. Facilitated by Lisa Asvestas and Abí Steinsiek.

Our first Water gathering will be open registration. Our vision is that by the second initiation, the Earth cycle, women who would like to go deeper, commit to the whole cycle and complete the process together. 

At Shakti Rising, we will embody the element of water through:

  • Elemental Water Rituals and Practices

  • Daily Breath, Sound, Movement Practices

  • Somatic Co-Creation Circles

  • Shamanic Breathwork® Journey

  • Teachings of the The Power of Water, Embodied Consent, and Creative Intertwining of the Feminine and Masculine

  • Archetypal Water Goddess/God Stories

  • Ceremonial Sweat Lodge

  • Co-Creative Art Processes

To join us: $625 all-inclusive

ACCESSIBILITY

LISA ASVESTAS

Lisa is a Shamanic Breathwork Facilitator, Shamanic Minister, Founder of Third Eye Tribe Non-Profit, and the Steward of Spiral Dance Ranch.  Her Calling (Infinite Concern) is people experiencing peace and joy.  She teaches from her heart all that has been shared with her and she is passionate in creating safe, sacred space for her community to feel seen, heard and cared for.  

Consciously and unconsciously, Lisa’s soul has guided her to seek out initiation.  Her Shamanic heart has led her to the Temples and Pyramids of Egypt; The Pyramids of Teotihuacan, Mexico; Machu Picchu, Peru; The Amazon jungles and rainforest; Bali; Iceland; the Blue Mountains of North Carolina; and Spiral Dance Ranch in South Texas. 

She is the mother of three (Dinero, Demi & Jonah)  and has been a San Antonio-based restauranteur for over 20 years (The Cove).

ABÍ STEINSIEK (They/She)

By finding their purpose on this earth in stirring up the system and balancing the power structures within and around us, Abí, has dedicated their life to the path of service. Their service weaves truthful and equitable praxis throughout their days, relationships, workshops and communities. Though they are not limited to societal walls and regularly prefer to be immersed and dancing in nature's luxurious baths and songs. 

Music is a key to sharing their magic and they are keen to uncover each person’s life narratives through storytelling and reauthoring particular story’s cadences through timeless archetypal teachings.

Abí is forever in reverence and gratitude to their many teachers over the years and world, delicious partners, lovers and friendships, plant babies and creature teachers. Currently, they are devoted to graduate school, co-facilitate Renewal Rituals, soak in a powerful mentorship with Myranda Bennett, and are dedicated to the path of The Light of Erin guided by Jeremy Schewe.
