The Awakening: A Sacred Journey to Self
With Akiyla McQueen, Denmar Mckie and Shai Rowe
April 30 - May 3, 2027
Step away from the demands of everyday life and make space to hear yourself again. The Awakening is an intimate retreat in Ellijay, Georgia, created for reflection, spiritual exploration, and renewed connection with yourself.
Hosted by A Sacred Vibration and guided by founder Akiyla McQueen, this gathering brings together sound healing, guided meditation, breathwork, movement, meaningful conversation, and time in nature. You are invited to explore the questions beneath your routines: Who am I? What matters to me? How do I want to live?
Our small-group setting offers room for both shared experience and personal reflection. Plant-based meals and time to rest support a slower, more intentional rhythm throughout your stay.
ACCOMMODATIONS AND MEALS
Three nights of accommodation, with shared and private options. Meals are 100% plant-based and vegan. Please share gluten-free needs and food allergies in advance so we can discuss accommodations.
PRICING
Shared accommodation: $850 per person; early-bird rate $825 when available.
Private single: $995.
Private double: $1,700 for two guests.
Optional juice four-pack: $32. Optional transportation: $100, with arrangements confirmed separately.
This listing is being prepared for April 30–May 3, 2027. Final venue details, daily timetable, booking terms, and availability will be completed before submission.
