Heal the Spaces Blocking Your Wholeness

In our fast-paced and often chaotic world, it’s easy to become entangled in patterns of thinking and feeling that lead to calcified and static energy that clings to you on a cellular level. This retreat offers a sacred space for you to pause, reflect, reconnect and get relief to change the trajectory of your life.

Join Sophie Frabotta, a leader in Spiritual Life Coaching, in an intensive healing retreat to unveil your deepest soul wounds, evoke healing on the cellular level, and hold Divine energy—unlocking a 5D consciousness to carry forward into the rest of your life.

After more than ten thousand hours of one-on-one spiritual healing and coaching, Sophie has found the quickest way to get straight to the wounds presenting themselves in costumes in your present day life. Learn to find and unwind at the cellular level and use sacred ritual to call Divine Life Force energy into your cells. This transmutation enables us to balance the Divine Feminine with the Divine Masculine for a unified energy field and optimal environment for further soul evolution.

Together, over two days, we will experience

  • Energy healing + Renewal Undergo the impactful healing power of energy work through Sophie’s signature modality, Cellular Alchemy
  • Guided Practices + Techniques Unveil your soul wounds, bring healing on the cellular level, hold Divine energy, and enter 5D consciousness
  • Community + Connection Connect with like-minded souls on a similar path of self-discovery and spiritual evolution.
  • Loving Acceptance Environment Share insights, stories, and support in a nurturing and non-judgmental environment
  • Integration + Empowerment Leave feeling rejuvenated, empowered, and inspired to embrace life with renewed clarity, purpose, and vitality

Note This is deep work; expect to experience intensive healing on Saturday. Sunday will be a day of silence to integrate divine healing energy.

Who Should Attend This retreat is open to individuals ready and willing to embark on a journey of deep inner exploration and personal growth. Whether you’re new to the path of spiritual awakening or a seasoned practitioner, you are warmly welcomed.

Sophie's retreats are a must no matter what stage you are in on your spiritual or healing journey.
Huge Impact
Amy

FINAL RETREAT I truly feel like there is a part of me that is waking up that has not come out in a long time. A part of me that is ready to be seen and heard. The ability Sophie has to create a space of loving acceptance had a huge impact on me.
Unimaginable Healing
Krissi
Read More
A deep sense of belonging has woken up inside of me when Sophie said, “Krissi, I accept you.” Acceptance is what I have been longing for and hearing that phrase was like a key that opened my heart to a deeper healing than I could have imagined.
So Inspirational & Supportive
Bella

I could not have dreamed of a better teacher. Sophie is so inspirational, supportive, dedicated to us all evolving and finding our own unique gifts. All the information was new and dynamic. I feel you opened the space for me to really dive in deep and yet also made it ok for us to breathe out!
More Aware
Anja
Read More
I am now more aware of messages and signs from Spirit. I am so glad that Sophie told me that spirit would never guide me by creating a feeling of fear. Spirit would always guide me in a warm and loving way.
Perfection & Magic
Jacque
Read More
The perfection and magic that we created together under Sophie’s poetic planning was truly a Divine experience. I healed on a deep level, gained knowledge and skills of crystals, the subtle power of aromatherapy, and the vibrational elevation of sound healing.
