A Shamanic Practitioner at Maui Healing Retreat Reconnected Me With Myself

After my dear friend raved about how much her experience at Maui Healing Retreat grounded her post-fire in 2023, I knew I had to try it for myself. I came in looking to find some nervous system alignment because, honestly, I had been feeling out of whack after years of being a chronic people-pleaser. I’ve struggled with tuning into my own "yeses" and "no's," constantly bending to others' needs and wants. But the moment I stepped onto the path leading to their beautiful healing center, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. The botanical garden setting, the welcoming energy of the space, and meeting Kalyani, the Shamanic Healer, set the tone for what would be a deeply healing session.

I immediately trusted Kalyani, with her grounded and nurturing presence. Her approach to healing is deeply rooted in Shamanic practices, blending indigenous wisdom with a modern understanding of energy work. After asking me to choose a healing stone to accompany me through this journey (I chose a pyrite crystal), she guided me through a process of clearing old energetic attachments that were no longer serving me. The journey was very interactive, as Kalyani reminds us that we are our own best healers. She even prompted me to choose the tool to energetically cut those old cords. Every moment was intentional, empowering and meaningful. What I loved most was her ability to create a safe space where I felt completely supported and seen, which allowed me to reconnect with my inner compass and begin the work of recalibrating my nervous system.

By the end of the session, I felt lighter, clearer, and more in tune with my intuition. It was as if a veil had been lifted from my senses, and I finally had space to focus on me. Time even seemed to slow and over the coming days, I couldn’t help but hear my own voice loud and clear. I became sensitive to every “yes” and “no” my body requested in a way I had dreamed of for years.

I completely understand the hype. In fact, I think I’ll be going in for a quarterly reset.

What’s even more amazing is that if you opt for a full retreat, Maui Healing Retreat sends you home with a beautiful gift box filled with healing goodies to support your continued journey. It’s no surprise they’ve been named Hawaii’s Best Wellness Retreat for five years running—they truly offer a holistic, tailored experience that empowers deep healing and connection. If you’re feeling disconnected or out of balance, I highly recommend booking a session—you won’t regret it.
