About Merkaba Immersions
Where healing becomes remembrance, and remembrance becomes service.
The Journey Home to Your Soul
Merkaba Immersions, formely Merkaba Retreats, was born from a sacred vision: to create a transformational container where people could heal, awaken, and remember who they truly are.
More than a wellness retreat, this is a soul mission. A ceremonial path. A temple space for those ready to rise.
Founded by Christopher Shaw, LCSW-S CSAT-S RYT, who has guided individuals, couples, and communities through profound healing, spiritual awakening, and leadership development. He has built and led successful healing centers, created transformative intensive & retreat programs, and held space for thousands of souls to reclaim their wholeness.
A lifelong mystic and teacher, Christopher’s path is rooted in both timeless wisdom and modern psychology. His work weaves together devotion, mantra, kundalini yoga, trauma-informed psychotherapy, sacred earth-medicine traditions, sound, breath, and stillness to create spaces of deep remembrance and embodiment.
Through his offerings — private coaching, concierge coaching for executives, sacred union mentorship, retreats, ceremonies, and online sanctuaries — Christopher helps others awaken their innate divinity, embody their purpose, and serve from love.
Each immersion is an alchemical blend of plant medicine, kundalini yoga, breathwork, sound healing, and sacred ritual, held in the safety of loving community.
Whether you are healing trauma, awakening spiritually, navigating a life transition, or answering an inner call you can no longer ignore—this is your portal. Your prayer. Your path back to the center of your being.
🌿 Governance in the Light
Merkaba Immersions is a sacred branch of Merkaba Temple, operating under the spiritual and legal covering of our Private Ministerial Association. Rooted in the Records of Light and guided by divine will, every retreat is curated as a living temple space—held in reverence, integrity, and multidimensional alignment.
While we are legally based in the State of Texas, our immersions are offered in Mexico and other sacred sites across the Earth, where land, lineage, and cosmic timing converge. These immersive journeys are not commercial ventures; they are spiritual convocations, operating within the protected framework of private ministry and sacred service.
Our facilitators serve not as entrepreneurs, but as stewards of transformation—guided by personal devotion, deep training, and the unseen hand of the Divine. We honor all traditions, walk in humility, and hold ourselves to the highest standards of ethical leadership, energetic hygiene, and sacred reciprocity.
Every participant enters into a sacred covenant—not only with us, but with the Mystery that calls them. Our retreats are governed not only by earthly agreements, but by the higher laws inscribed in the architecture of the soul.
Merkaba is an ancient Hebrew word meaning light, spirit, and body.
It also refers to the geometric field of divine protection and ascension—the interdimensional vehicle that transports the soul between realms.
Here, Merkaba is the living bridge between Earth and cosmos, form and formless, shadow and light.
It is the sacred space where healing becomes remembrance…
and remembrance becomes a life of service, freedom, and joy.
Why Merkaba?
Our Philosophy
We believe…
-
Healing is sacred and requires both safety and soul
-
Transformation is not a trend—it’s a return to truth
-
Every human is divine and capable of remembering
-
Ceremony is the medicine—but integration is the mastery
-
You already carry the answers—we simply help you unlock them
Our work is trauma-informed, spiritually guided, and rooted in deep devotion.

Guided by Guru Nityananda
Our immersions are rooted in the living light of Guru Nityananda—a master of divine stillness and transmission. His presence infuses every ceremony, teaching, and moment with grace, love, and truth. Though not physically present, his guidance is felt in the silence between words, in the breath of the jungle, and in the awakening of each soul who answers the call to return home to Self.
