A New Era of Custom Immersions
In addition to its Signature Immersions, Merkaba Retreats has expanded into a fully customizable format, allowing guests to build their own immersion based on their personal intention, level of experience, and available time.
Participants can now choose from:
Private 1:1 Immersions for deep personal healing and alignment
Couples Immersions for sacred union and relational harmony
Chosen Family or Team Immersions for collective healing and conscious collaboration
Flexible durations — Weekend (2–3 days), 5-Day, or Signature 7-Day experiences
Every customized immersion includes sacred ceremony (with or without Earth medicine), daily yoga and embodiment practice, personalized spiritual coaching, and clean, conscious nourishment — all within a safely guided and energetically protected field.
Accessibility, Scholarships & the “Bring a Friend” Offering
To make this work more accessible, Merkaba Retreats continues to offer its “Bring a Friend” promotion:When you invite a friend or loved one to join your immersion, you’ll receive 50% off your tuition as a gesture of gratitude for expanding the circle of healing and remembrance.
Merkaba Retreats also offers a Scholarship Program to support individuals from historically underserved communities — including veterans, teachers, healers, and those in financial transition — who feel a genuine call to this work. These scholarships reflect Merkaba’s core belief that healing and awakening should be available to all who are ready, regardless of circumstance.
Financial Clarity and Blessings
Merkaba Retreats recognizes that the call to transformation can stir financial fears or hesitation. The newly added “Blessings” page addresses these concerns with transparency and spiritual grounding — reminding guests that true exchange is energetic before it is financial.
Through prayer, reflection, and trust, participants are invited to see abundance as part of the medicine itself. When one’s heart is aligned with the calling, the way is always provided.
Founded by Christopher Shaw and stewarded by Christopher Shaw and Aeon Archer, Merkaba Retreats serves as the Wellness Pillar of Merkaba Temple — dedicated to the holistic integration of body, mind, and Spirit.
Each immersion bridges modern psychology, somatic embodiment, and sacred ceremony to facilitate deep transformation and soul remembrance. Together, the stewards of Merkaba hold space for leaders, couples, and communities ready to awaken, embody, and serve from wholeness.
