In this first-of-its-kind immersion you will explore how to embody
flavor expressions - spanning the entire range from the sublime light to the erotic dark.
Within each of us lies a rich multitude of expressions. Like spices in cooking, embodied flavors spice up our life - as increased capacity of expression, as remedy for feeling stuck or stunted and as the variety that creates and renews erotic friction and play.
Unfortunately with the demands of our busy lives, these expressions often remain out of reach. We find ourselves stressed, disembodied and stuck in a rut, unable to access the expansive abundance within. When we know how to unlock this array of flavors we can begin to free our limitless potential.
In this immersion you will enter a deep dive into the realms of flavors, practicing how to merge with different flavors, how to embody flavors as a means of empowerment - from the dark erotic to unrestrained bliss, from carefree play to the realms of power and magic and into the healing aspects of flavor remedies.
We’ll explore nature flavors, archetypal expressions, goddesses of various traditions and the boundless variety of erotic expressions that arise from within us naturally and can be harnessed for powerful creativity, expanded freedom and deeply satisfying sensual and erotic engagement.
You will also investigate and expand your authentic home flavor and learn how to express your unique flavor powerfully.
In this immersion you will receive brand new material as well as new experiential practice sessions, which we’ve especially created for the theme of this retreat and its unique retreat location:
You will receive never-before offered flavor demonstrations and transmissions with Michaela, which will be facilitated and supported by Steve. In these sessions we will use the principles of resonant learning, as you move with and learn from Michaela as well as each other.
We have exclusive use of our retreat location, which allows for a true immersion while providing the space to de-escalate and relax within an incredibly beautiful natural environment.
In addition to the main schedule, you will have the opportunity to participate in optional daily individualized practice instruction from Steve James.
You will have the opportunity to receive personalized feedback from Michaela throughout the retreat and participate in Q&A’s and group processes.

Expanding Your Repertoire
We each have our own specific flavor of the feminine. No two women are alike. As we relax into our natural flow, who we are as a flavor unfolds and infuses our actions and our life. A flavor is a bit like a unique combination of spices. Some women feel cool and soothing, some women are hot and spicy.
You can look at flavors as expressions of nature or as archetypes. They present themselves on a scale from light to dark.
Here are a few examples:
Nature flavors could include: “Morning Dew,” “The Ocean,” “Thunderstorm and Lightning,” and “Tornado.”
Archetypal flavors could include: “Erotic Innocence,” “Cheerleader,” “Queen,” “Femme Fatale,” and “Dominatrix.”
We naturally resonate with some of these flavors, and we are intimidated or repelled by others. For the sake of full feminine embodiment, it is interesting to expand your repertoire of feminine flavor expressions— not because who you are is “not good enough,” but because, “Why not?”
You would not want just one pair, or one color of shoes, would you? Having an embodied repertoire of expression adds fun and range to who you are. It also infuses a different flavor into intimacy and play.
