Live the maDJic Retreat Series

Exclusive experiences for the soul · Led by Daphne Paras & Joseph Reyes!

There are some thresholds you can’t cross from home…

Not in a seminar, on a podcast, or in a weekend of “consuming more information.”

They open when you step into sacred space — when you are seen, guided, and held in the presence of true devotion.

Live the maDJic Retreat Series is a collection of intimate, luxury-level immersions created for those who are ready to experience a higher expression of love, courage, and conscious living.

Each retreat is intentionally designed to weave:

  • Ancient ritual with modern expansion

  • Deep inner work with embodied practice

  • Soul-level healing with real-world integration

From The Sanctuary in Illinois to the sacred pyramids of Teotihuacan, Mexico, these journeys are as exclusive as they are transformative.

And with enrollment capped at twelve participants…

Every retreat becomes a private initiation into self-mastery, sacred polarity, and divine remembrance.

What To Expect At Your Retreat

A rare moment when time slows, truth surfaces, and you remember who you were always meant to be.

It’s where luxury stops being about comfort and becomes about elevation.

Through immersive workshops, curated dinners, sacred fireworks, and intentional community experiences…

Every moment is designed to awaken something real in your body, heart, mind, and soul.

This is where the sacred meets the extraordinary and where transformation becomes inevitable.

This is Live the maDJic.

Step Inside Our Incredible Retreat Locations

The Sanctuary, Illinois

Most people try to rest, heal, or reconnect without ever changing the environment they are in.

They take time off, attend workshops, or read books, but they’re still surrounded by the same noise, responsibilities, and patterns that wear them down in the first place.

The Sanctuary exists to interrupt that pattern.

Set on private land and intentionally removed from everyday distraction, The Sanctuary provides the safety and privacy required for meaningful inner work.

It is not a hotel.

It’s a calm, contained environment where your nervous system can settle enough for clarity, honesty, and emotional access to return.

Because when your body feels safe, insight turns into change rather than fading once you return home.

Teotihuacan, Mexico

Teotihuacan has long been known as a place where perspective comes more easily.

There’s just something about the scale of the land, the openness of the views, & the history held there that naturally pulls attention out of mental noise and back into the present moment.

This retreat isn’t about pushing for breakthroughs or forcing answers.

It’s about being in a setting that makes it easier to hear yourself think and feel what’s been sitting beneath the surface.

Surrounded by expansive views, nearby waterfalls, and accessible hiking trails, there is time to walk, rest, sit with others, or be alone.

Teotihuacan is the kind of place that helps you zoom out just enough to see what matters and what doesn’t…

And to leave with a steadier sense of direction rather than a list of things to fix.

  • Location: Teotihuacan, Mexico

  • Investment: $10,000 per person

There are places on Earth where the veil between worlds is thin — where time feels different, truth speaks louder, and transformation is not an idea, but an inevitability.

Teotihuacan is one of those places.

The Sacred Yes Is The Pinnacle Of The Live The MaDJic Retreat Series

For centuries, seekers have traveled to this sacred city to remember who they truly are.

Hidden within its pyramids, temples, and underground caverns are energetic portals that mirror the human journey:

The descent into self, the burning away of illusion, and the rebirth into light.

The Sacred Yes is the pinnacle of the Live the maDJic Retreat Series.

It’s a private, co-ed immersion guided by Daphne Paras and Joe Reyes, devoted to awakening your most authentic expression of love, leadership, and purpose.

Whether you come as an individual or as a couple, this journey invites you to walk a path of remembrance that leads you back to the heart of creation itself.

What’s Included:

Participants receive rare, private access to ancient ceremonial sites and hidden caves that are seldom open to the public.

Within these portals, sacred ceremonies, breathwork, and fire rituals help:

• Awaken dormant energy

• Release what no longer serves

• Call forth the version of you who is ready to fully live your sacred yes

You’ll stay at The Dreaming House, a family-run retreat center nestled in a small village beside the pyramids.

It isn’t the Ritz-Carlton — and that’s precisely the point.

Here, luxury isn’t measured in thread count, but in frequency.

You Will Also Receive:

• Private access to sacred sites and underground ceremonial spaces

• Ceremonies guided by indigenous elders and spiritual teachers

• Firewalk and heart-activation rituals led by Daphne & Joe

• Authentic Mexican meals, cultural excursions, and private transport

• An intimate group size for a deeply personal, protected experience

Is A Retreat Right For You?

These retreats are designed for people who are functioning well in life, but feel there’s something unresolved beneath the surface.

You don’t need to be spiritual, experienced in retreats, or comfortable sharing everything about yourself…

But you do need to be open, self-responsible, and willing to engage honestly with your own experience.

People who tend to get the most from this work are often:

  • Are at a natural turning point in their life or relationship

  • Want space to think and feel without pressure

  • Value depth, but don’t want anything forced

  • Are comfortable in small groups that respect privacy

Every retreat is intentionally capped at 12 participants to ensure emotional safety, personal attention, and a grounded group dynamic.

Participation is always invitational.

You are never forced to share, participate, or push past your own boundaries.

So, if you’re drawn to the idea of slowing down, thinking more clearly, and spending a few days in a supportive, low-pressure environment…

This may be the right kind of experience for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What actually happens during the retreat?

Each retreat has a clear structure, but the days are not overfilled. There are guided sessions, time in nature, shared meals, and space to rest or reflect.

Some moments are more facilitated, others are intentionally open.

The focus is on creating a welcoming space that supports clarity and connection, rather than packing the schedule.

Is this going to feel awkward if I don’t know anyone?

That’s a common concern, and in practice it’s rarely an issue.

Because the groups are small, connections tend to form naturally without icebreakers or forced sharing.

Many people arrive feeling a bit unsure and leave surprised by how comfortable it felt to simply be themselves.

Do I need to come with a specific intention or goal?

Not necessarily. Some people arrive with a clear question or decision they’re sitting with, while others just know they need time and space away from their usual environment.

Both approaches are completely fine.

How physical is the retreat?

Activities are accessible and optional.

Any movement, hiking, or physical practices are designed to be grounding rather than demanding. You don’t need to be especially fit, and accommodations can be made if needed.

Why are the groups kept so small?

Smaller groups create a calmer, more respectful environment. It allows for more personal attention, fewer social dynamics to manage, and a greater sense of safety.

It also means the experience can adapt to the group rather than following a rigid formula.

How do people usually feel after they leave?

Most people describe feeling clearer, more settled, and more confident about what comes next.
