Come as you are.
Leave as who you were always meant to be.
Spellbound is a multi-day immersive retreat for those ready to break patterns, burn old stories, and become the most potent, magnetic version of themselves.
It’s your call to rise. Where you shed the shoulds and step into the sacred. Where laughter and tears dance together around the fire. Where bold individuals come to awaken their magic, heal through ritual, and connect with a coven of powerful souls. This isn’t just a retreat—it’s your initiation into your next era.
You weren’t meant to play small.
You were meant to stir the cauldron, speak your truth, and remember
the magic that lives in your bones.

We will craft and cast spells, expand our magical knowledge and practices through workshops, eat delicious food, find a sense of belonging, and spend time in the majestic Utah desert.
Expect guided rituals, creative expression, late-night cackles, deep healing, and connection that feels like a remembering.

WHAT’S INCLUDED
RETREAT SCHEDULE
THURSDAY OCTOBER 23RD - ARRIVAL & OPENING. Arrive between 12–3pm to settle into the space and meet your coven. We’ll open our sacred circle together, anchoring our intentions. Over dinner, we begin exploring your connection to magic—and close the night by inviting your ancestors and spirit guides to walk beside you.
FRIDAY OCTOBER 24TH - SHEDDING THE SHADOWS. We begin with yoga and reflection on the land, softening into stillness. Guided journeys and creative rituals lead you inward, where shadow becomes teacher. As night falls, we rise renewed in a phoenix sound ceremony—releasing what no longer serves and reclaiming what does.
SATURDAY OCTOBER 25TH - SPELLBINDING. Movement opens the day, followed by a full immersion in spellcraft, rituals, guided journeys, and our witchy marketplace. The magic builds with every breath—and after dusk, we unveil a surprise celebration. (Hint: your radiant, untamed self takes center stage.)
SUNDAY OCTOBER 26TH - THRESHOLD CROSSING. We close our circle and cross the final threshold—preparing to re-enter the world as your newly integrated self. Activities end by 12pm, but the spell will linger long after you’ve gone.
Led by seasoned facilitators who live and breathe the path of the witch. each Spellbound retreat is a curated portal—infused with ancient ritual, modern tools, deep embodiment, and zero bullshit.

our desert sanctuary
Our sanctuary for the week is a stunning home in Toquerville, Utah, nestled between the red rock mesas and the flowing waters of Ash Creek. Located just 30 minutes from Zion National Park, this sacred land offers both seclusion and breathtaking beauty. The land holds deep ancestral roots, once home to the Ancestral Puebloans and later the Southern Paiute people. It is a place where earth, water, and sky converge, inviting transformation and magical discovery.
Our main gathering space will be at the Toquerville home, where we will come together for rituals, workshops, and shared meals. Some participants will be accommodated in our nearby home in La Verkin.
Imagine mornings spent in circle beneath the vast desert sky, afternoons exploring the winding trails, and evenings sharing spells and stories under the stars. Whether you seek connection, adventure, or a deepening of your own magic, this land will hold and inspire you.
