Circle of Life Retreat
with
Deep Transformational Healing & Integrative Facilitation
Circle of Life Retreat is an intimate and protected healing space for women to meet and experience all parts of themselves, as part of their intimate, expansive, and transformative healing journey.
The experience is devoted to guiding you to see and work through distortion, closure, disconnect, and the essence of limitation, which is really just the barrier we face as a conditioned response to dealing with the discomfort of going beyond the known.
We use the power of embodied facilitation to recapture the purity and truer essence of our trauma, conditioning, patterns, and unlove.
We use the power of voice, honest expression, and honoring, to reinvite us into deeper levels of connection, oneness & unity.
We use the power of nature to cleanse and support us as we return to our roots as human beings rediscovering, exploring, and figuring out who we are and what we truly want.
We harness the qualities of courage, curiosity, and willingness, to create opportunities for breakthroughs and crystal-clear clarity.
We lean on the power of dynamic workshops, frameworks, and teachings to support us in working with and through the complexity of imbalance, disharmony, confusion, and the human condition.
We use the power of humility to exhale, laugh, and soften into the simplicity and humor that represents the light side of our work and our healing.
We use the power of the breath to safely bypass the mind and enter into deeper states, allowing us to work directly with the body.
We use the power of sacred rituals, practices & spaces to support you in pulling out threads of unlove, distrust, and deeper truth.
And most of all, we harness the power of our hearts and our capacity for love as integrated healers, facilitators, and teachers, to create a rich & safe environment for you to dissolve into yourself at great depths and meet yourself fully.

About Ellen Travassaros
I've been a practicing student, teacher, and facilitator in the human and healing arts for almost 10 years.
I'm 33 years old, a 4/6 manifesting generator, and my greatest challenge (and lesson) so far has been in choosing unconditional love in every place, crevice, relationship, and moment of my life where my love and power waivers.
This has been a marvelous and curious journey back to my innate essence, which has been a great discipline and practice of embodying the great witness and letting go of my attachment to another human being's experience so that I can honor both of us from a greater perspective and quality of consciousness.
This level and quality of conscious embodiment pulls so much out of me and opens me to the depth of my own spirit, heart, knowing, rhythm, and truth. If you understood from where I've come, you'd know this is a truly phenomenal celebration.
I've worked with women for almost 10 years and have helped them heal through multiple modalities including regression therapy, soul retrieval, re-patterning, Holistic NLP, and embodiment both in Retreat experiences, groups, and 1 on 1 facilitation.
Prior to this, I was riddled with anxiety, living in anticipation of the future and what could go wrong, had shields as thick as the great wall of china, and a heavy reliance on the outside world to tell me who I was, how much I was worth, and what was important to me.
I've come to really know that the greatest gift I can truly offer women as they traverse their healing journey, is the gift of my love and the
My greatest intention for myself, and all human beings that I have the privilege to work with, is that we come to know, and deeply value and understand the depth of our own knowing. That we are our own gurus, teachers, wisdom-keepers, and knowers of all things.
It goes without saying that to fully honor how immensely powerful we are, and to know who and what we truly are, we must go into and through the many layers that distort our perception of the human experience, and what it means to feel, heal and be whole.
I am a woman who was tapped on the shoulder by something very powerful early in my life. I know what I'm here to do and why I'm here to do it. And it is never lost on me what an honor it is to facilitate such deeply profound experiences.
My motto is 'I go you go'. This means I will never teach, offer, invite, or facilitate that which I am not yet embodied in. Integrity is of the utmost importance when it comes to the depth of this work, and is one of my highest values in life.
I don't believe you need to be fixed, saved, or changed. I do however believe that everything you need is inside of you, and that we can collapse time and space when we incorporate a multi-layered and integrative approach including, placing ourselves in intentional and conscious environments designed to support us & facilitate our healing work.
Retreat will allow you to see all parts of yourself because the essence and energetics of the space I offer are laced with a level of love and integrity that empowers you to dissolve into yourself.
It's the greatest honor of my life to welcome you into this experience. I can't wait to connect with you, and for you to immerse yourself in the community of women walking alongside you.
