JOYFUL EXPANSION. ALIVENESS. ABUNDANCE!
In 2019, I received a deep calling from Mount Shasta to bridge the magic of the mountains with the majesty of the ocean. So, my husband Peter and I bought a one-way ticket to see what Big Island, Hawaii had in store for us. We traveled there with open hearts and curious minds to connect with Pele’s fire, Mauna Kea’s strength, and the playful spirit of the wild spinner dolphins.
The instant my feet touched the soil, I could feel the strong life force of the island. We were gifted so much from the land…
Gorgeous tropical sunsets, ripe mangoes and avocados growing everywhere, delicious coffee, spontaneous whale sightings, and unexpectedly close encounters with wild spinner dolphins while swimming in the sacred Kealakekua Bay.
My body felt so vibrant from the aliveness of the land, mountains and ocean! Our first trip on Big Island ended up being nearly 3 weeks long. It was so hard to leave, even though we missed Mount Shasta dearly.
Five years later, after numerous annual Big Island pilgrimages, we are honored to welcome our new Big Island sister site to the Hestia Magic network!
Our flagship location in Mount Shasta has a powerful way to bring precise clarity, alignment, and grounding to your visions and desires. And once that beautiful vision is clear and anchored deep into the earth, it’s time to play with the oceanic energy of joyful expansion and play with the abundance of Goddess Pele’s fertile, fiery lands.
As you meet the sacred sites and energy spots around Big Island, you will also cultivate your own intimate, reverent relationship with the divine nature that’s present here.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU HERE!
WITH LOVE,
BELINDA

A SAFE SPACE FOR SOLO TRAVELERS
When we are facing a major transition or on the cusp of a personal breakthrough, we need the dedicated time and a safe space away from our daily routines to find our way back to ourselves again.
At these life inflection points, we often need customized, targeted support to heal our old nagging traumas and find new ways to navigate the changes ahead.
For many travelers, especially female travelers like me, it can be a challenge to feel safe alone in a new place. And yet, a change of context is what’s needed to reset, reboot, and recalibrate our lives.
That’s why we do everything we can to make sure you land softly when you come to Hestia. We schedule a call with you before coming to understand your needs for your custom solo retreat. We have a special way to greet you when you arrive and prioritize creating a safe, cozy home for you. We check in with your regularly to help you get settled (if you need it).
Imagine having your own support team of highly skilled healers and coaches in nature. We tailor each of our add-on services and the experiential flow of your retreat week to accelerate your personal healing, grounding and transformation on the land.
It is safe to be alone together at Hestia. We are here to curate a custom solo retreat just for you!
