~ TESTIMONIAL ~
Today I began the process of creating my very own mandala!
So meditative! And I noticed when I just let go, everything flowed...
Just trusting in the unfolding process,
and then stepping back and seeing before my eyes how my deeper knowing
was guiding me the whole time... It was really my job to just sit into trusting,
and from this deeper resonance, being guided from deeply within.

"I attended Stephanie’s Bali Retreat In September 2019 and I am attending again in April 2023.
The retreat was 7 days and nights of pure bliss.
To be able to learn and practice sacred geometry under Stephanie’s guidance
in such a beautiful and peaceful space is an experience I will always cherish.
The location is spectacular, the food was great and it is pure privilege
to be able to spend time doing what you love with like minded individuals.
If you are looking to gift yourself an memorable experience then you should definitely
be considering attending a retreat with Stephanie in Bali. "
