The Journey
Self Guided Immersive Experiences
Bring Adventure & Magic to your Path of Discovery
USA, Europe & Mexico
Accelerate transformation & growth towards a life you consciously design, step into deep alignment with your purpose, passion and gifts.
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”
We are at a point in time where as a population, we need to make a radical shift in our perspectives and resulting actions. What we are witnessing in current events and in our environment, is a result of a mindset and actions from many generations past marred with war and trauma.
The radical shift starts with us and ripples out into our families, our communities and finally our culture. It is time we wake up and start making different choices for a different future.
By empowering yourself as a leader, together, we increase vision and capacity for our future.
These experiences are for you if:
You desire transformation within your life and to develop a practice around personal development;
You are curious to learn more about working with expanded consciousness & plant medicines;
You desire to learn more about the flow of creativity and innovative thinking and how these practices can support accelerated movement in your life, relationships and career;
You desire to be more aligned, efficient and effective;
You seek more balance, happiness and joy in life every day;
You desire to be around like-minded inspired and passionate individuals that are here to make a difference.
You have a vision for the future, big dreams and deep desire to bring change into the world
What is expanded consciousness?
Expanded consciousness refers to modalities that give a sense that one's mind has been opened to a new or larger kind of awareness. Meditation, breath work and plant medicines are examples and are used throughout to amplify and accelerate our process. These modalities are combined with western psychology, traditional transformation tools from indigenous cultures and movement within nature to create an environment that supports our greatest growth and vision, and ultimately expands our consciousness.
This is where we enter a new realm of our human potential. This is where you start to remember who you are and the possibility that lays inside. This is also where we will find the solutions of the future.

Surf & Explore the Unknown
Adventure to the coast of Portugal where we will together explore the endless beaches, deep Atlantic Ocean and the vast being of who you are. Learn how surfing can help us access our somatics and provide pathways for deepening our relationship with ourselves. Learn to create intimacy through music, dance and play. This is a self guided experiential retreat.
For us to understand ourselves, we must get present. We must slow down and we must be willing to self reflect on how we are responsible for the life we create through our perspectives and corresponding actions or lack of action. During expanded consciousness we can access different parts of our brain and psyche that then give us clues into what may be in our subconscious, or the part of our life that we are on auto-pilot and simply in reaction vs choice.
These experiences are thoughtfully designed to have a cycle of healing in each. What this means is we create the opportunity in a safe physical and mental space in which we can reflect and become curious about who we are and what’s going on. Tools that provide states of expanded consciousness act to accelerate and amplify the process, making it easier for us to see the connections, and have ‘ah ha’s’ and insights about past experiences and how they are impacting our present day and perspective.
This is not a linear process. We start with what is present in our lives and our intention or desire, for example; ‘I want more happiness’ ‘I want to heal my childhood wounds’. This provides the framework and illuminates the pathway to the underlying subconscious which holds the answers. It is with these insights that we are able to then bring more consciousness our the decisions we make every day, the behaviors or patterns we are in and as a result, incrementally make small changes towards what we do want. This is the integration process which ultimately leads us to growth, finding more space in our lives to breathe and to feel alive. It is from this place of ‘life’ that we can create with intention, purpose and passion.
What Others Say
“Working with Anaïs was on of the best things I’ve every done for myself.”
“As someone who has spent their whole life around science, I was skeptical. Then I read the Michael Pollan book. My views were outdated and so then I decided to experience it for myself. I have joined the 80% of people who say it is one of the most profound experiences of their life.”
“I’m doing things that I’ve never done before! My heart feels free. I couldn’t have done this without you.”
The Steps of Accelerated Transformation
The Foundation & Intention
Step One: Set the Foundation with Knowledge & Intention
When we build anything, a strong foundation provides the space for stable and long-term growth. Creating a foundation in this work consists of basic knowledge about how this works, from neuroscience to spiritual concepts. It includes creating a safe and supportive community in which you have this experience. The second aspect is the blueprint or ‘intention’. What do you want? What are you curious about? What do you want to explore? What do you desire in your life? You will receive considerable guidance on this step.
The weeks prior will include:
1 Private Session (1hr) to explore and define personal intention
2 Group Sessions; 1 (1.5 hr) Introduction & Education, 1 (1.5hr) Shared Intentions
Intake Form and Intention Form
Guided Meditations and Practices to increase awareness and mindfulness (a key tool in this work)
My intention is that you feel empowered. You have the answers within yourself and you have the ability to heal yourself. Expanded consciousness can illuminate the internal landscape and subconscious, and it is what you do with them that is key.
I am here as a guide, a mentor and a mirror.
The Experience
Step Two: Illuminate & Amplify the Subconscious
‘We don’t know what we don’t know that we don’t know.’ These are called your blindspots and they are prevalent in your environment, relationships and behaviors. When you bring ourselves out of your comfort zone both physically and mentally, you can start to see again.
I have specifically designed these experiences to include travel, because this disruption in your routine accelerates the transformational process. It also gives you an opportunity to explore other versions of reality. Expanded consciousness creates the second space in which you have the opportunity to illuminate your subconscious. A key aspect of this is set & setting, where we will create a safe a nourishing space with community and location, so that you may journey fully.
In order to receive the fullest experience, you will receive;
2 Groups Meetings for Intention Setting
1 Private Meeting
1-3 ceremonies to explore ‘Expanded Consciousness’ including:
Breathwork
Meditation
Sweat Lodge (Temazcal)
Plant Medicines
Tools to support navigation during your Journey including:
Mindfulness & Awareness techniques
Somatic & Emotional Clearing techniques
Music & Sound
Meditations & Breathwork
Movement & Art Processes
Essences & Essential Oils
Note these vary with each experience
Food and nature are the simplest and fastest way to bring calm, ease and healing into our bodies. Additionally, each experience includes;
local foods made from fresh ingredients,
time & activity in nature,
local ‘adventures’ that reflect the culture and beauty of a place.
Each experience is 3-5 days and includes different combinations of the above to reflect the local area, practices and medicine.
The Integration
Step Three: Create a plan that implements your learnings into your life with intention and clarity resulting in long term impact
Integration is what you do after, how you bring what you learned into your life. Expanded states provide an insight or gateway, this is how you step through and make lasting change in your life. This requires intention, presence, compassion and patience. You have been living one way for a long time, change takes energy and time, and is challenging, but the rewards is a life that brings you joy, passion .. excitement for a new day. It is one worth waking up for.
The integration process starts onsite at the experience and continues afterwards;
2 Group Gatherings during experience for exploration and reflection (note: integration actions and concrete actions typically develop the week after)
Council Gathering & Closing - share insights and possibilities for life
2 Group Follow-up calls
Integration Plan
Private 1:1 calls to create Integration Plan
Coaching or 1:1 are available for additional costs.
You will also have the opportunity to form a ‘pod’ with other people within your experience. This will give you opportunity to share more deeply our experience and have support as you make changes within your life.
I am available to coach each pod on a monthly basis. I highly recommend this as again, this is where the change happens and is where most get stuck again or fall back into pattern.
Your Guide Anaïs
Anaïs has been helping people overcome their fears, and achieve their goals, for decades. First as a scuba instructor and then a flight instructor and private jet pilot, she has the ability to guide people through experiences that both challenge their mind and also their vulnerability and sense of safety. It is her skillful guidance that supports the ‘traveler’ in accomplishing what they did not think possible: finding new confidence and freedom in their life.
Her role as a medicine woman is very similar, however the medium is our internal landscape. Our unhappiness and anxiety comes from the many blocks and limitations that being human creates, patterns from our past, behaviors to protect ourselves, ruminating thoughts. As a result, we are living on the ground, so to speak, when our desire is to soar in the air. The process is very similar and it is through her slow and meticulous support that you can arrive in a new place in your life. One that has freedom, joy and passion.
Anaïs has studied and been mentored in Western philosophies of psychology, trauma and various modalities including Somatic therapy, Hakomi and CBT. She has studied with the medicine men and women of different lineages and traditions in Mexico, learning the art and depth of working with plants and ceremony. Healing happens when we feel safe, seen and heard. Her ability to create this space, the presence she brings and the ability to guide you through when it feels like there is no doorway, enables her to support you in stepping into new places, which then creates the liberation, joy and happiness in your life.

The set of new features includes psychological insight, increased awareness of beauty, awe/amazement, meaningfulness and mystical-type experiences (e.g., a highly valued sense of unity), positive social effects and visual effects.
Neuroscience is backing it up …
Plant medicines & expanded consciousness increase our neuroplasticity. This enables the rigid pathways of the past to be deconstructed, reworked and reprogramed with the right tools.
This means you can change your reality and your life.
“We don’t just passively perceive the world. We actively generate it. The world we experience comes as much, if not more, from the inside out as from the outside in.”
We live the majority of our life on auto-pilot. Your reality is being programmed by your subconscious and your past, every day.
‘Today, after several decades of suppression and neglect, psychedelics are having a renaissance. A new generation of scientists, many of them inspired by their own personal experience of the compounds, are testing their potential to heal mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. Other scientists are using psychedelics in conjunction with new brain-imaging tools to explore the links between brain and mind, hoping to unravel some of the mysteries of consciousness.’
— Michael Pollan, Author of How to Change Your Mind
This is what is possible.

Reprogram Neural Pathways
To Find Happiness, Joy & Peace
As we become more present, we start to see our past patterns, the resulting behaviors and actions. This is where we can take action and build new neural pathways that support a life we desire.
Reconnect with your Purpose & Passion
Access Flow & Creativity
As we become more aligned with ourselves, our energy increases as does access to joy, creativity and inspiration. It is from here that we access our greatest potential and flow states. It is from this place that we can design the reality we desire.
Harness your Human Potential

For you, for me, for our families, our communities and this world.
For a new world and a new future.
‘Anaïs helped me navigate the uncertainty and gave me tools to face any obstacles or challenges that life brings and transform them into opportunities for self-reflection and growth.
I am incredibly grateful for her guidance and wisdom.’
