Private 1:1/Chosen Family/Custom Earth Medicine Immersions
With Aeon Archer and Christopher Shaw
Open Dates
A Note From a Past Guest: “As a CEO, I’m used to carrying pressure with nowhere safe to put it down. In my private retreat with Christopher and Aeon, I finally could. I released years of stress, faced truths I’d avoided, and reconnected with the deeper purpose behind my leadership. I left with clarity, freedom, and an inner strength that changed how I lead—and how I live.”
— Gianni P., CEO & Founder
Private Retreats at Merkaba Retreats: Not vacations. Initiation.
Private immersions offer something most people rarely receive in their lifetime: a fully dedicated space for truth, clarity, healing, and renewal.
These retreats are designed for individuals and couples who want a deeper, more personalized experience—one that meets them exactly where they are and supports them in stepping into what’s next.
It is intentional.
It is intimate.
It is life-defining.
Who These Retreats Are For
Private immersions support those who are:
– Navigating a major life transition or crossroads
– Leading at a high level and carrying emotional or energetic weight
– Seeking clarity in purpose, mission, or identity
– Feeling disconnected from themselves or their partner
– Wanting a deeper, quieter space to reset and reorient
– Ready for meaningful internal work with expert guidance
– Desiring a retreat tailored to their specific intentions and pace
Whether you are a CEO, entrepreneur, healer, creator, or a couple seeking reconnection, this container meets you at depth.
A Bespoke Journey, Designed Around You
Every private retreat is customized based on your needs, background, and the season you’re in.
Your immersion may include:
– Sacred earth medicine ceremonies held with safety and intention
– Daily breathwork, grounding, and Yoga
– Movement, meditation, and supportive ritual
– Emotional clarity work & nervous-system recalibration
– Integration sessions during, before and after retreat
– Conscious, nutrient-dense meals to support your process
– Optional couples work: communication, healing, reconnection, and alignment
Nothing about this experience is one-size-fits-all. You receive complete presence, full attention, and a retreat crafted specifically for your growth.
Location
Private immersions are held in our warm, peaceful retreat villa in Puerto Vallarta, surrounded by ocean, mountains, culture, and sacred land. Travel retreats at a location of your choosing may be available by request.
