Deeper Intimacy

Sparkling Creativity

Embodied Self Worth

Belly Laughs

Sometimes all it takes is a sacred pause in a beautiful place to remind us of something ancient inside of us… This isn’t just a retreat. This is YOU REMEMBERING WHO YOU REALLY ARE

Do you remember a time when life was…

Simpler? Sweeter? Easier?

A time before the world told you that you had to be…

“something else”

in order to be loved…

This retreat is NOT meant to make you someone different.

It’s designed to bring you back to the original…

YOU

Your original frequency.

Consider this retreat the line in the sand between who you’ve been and who you’re no longer willing to abandon…

Meet Your Guides

Mark

Mark Mostaed is a leading edge architect in deep emotional and transformational work, and the creator of The Shadow Code.

He works with people who appear functional on the outside but feel stuck, tense, or misaligned on the inside. People who are tired of holding it together, overriding their bodies, or living in survival mode.

What makes Mark’s work different is how precisely he can meet someone in their inner world.

He is deeply intuitive and highly attuned, able to sense what’s happening beneath the surface and give language to emotional experiences clients have never been able to name. Often, he helps people access layers of feeling that are completely new, clear, and surprisingly safe.

A core part of his work involves guiding people into what he calls the dark energy.

Not darkness as something broken or dangerous, but as raw emotional power that has been pushed down or misunderstood. Grief that never had space. Anger that was never allowed. Truth buried in order to survive.

In Mark’s presence, this energy becomes finally movable.
What was feared becomes clarifying.
What was heavy becomes expansive.

Many describe the experience as similar to a psychedelic journey, deep and revealing, yet grounded, gentle, and fully conscious.

Shaped by heartbreak, divorce, and single fatherhood, Mark learned how to stay with emotional intensity without fixing or escaping. That capacity is what people feel when they work with him.

His work helps people stop avoiding their darkness and discover the intelligence inside it. As this energy is integrated, people stop managing themselves and begin living from clarity instead of fear.

People don’t come to Mark to be changed.
They come to experience themselves fully.

Yulia

Yulia is a devoted mother, entrepreneur, and space-holder. A Russian native, she brings a diversity of grounded resilience shaped by lived experience, care, and earned emotional presence.

Her path includes motherhood, partnership, entrepreneurship, and deep personal transitions that taught her how to stay connected to herself while holding responsibility for others.

Yulia has a natural ability to sense what is needed in a moment and to help people feel safe without being managed or pushed. Her presence supports nervous system settling, emotional ease, and embodied trust.

At this retreat, she helps anchor the space through quiet care, relational attunement, and warmth — often without words.

Her role is simple and essential:
to help you soften,
to feel held,
and to remember yourself in the process.

With movement by Maria

A professional dancer from Chile, Maria’s relationship with movement began with an early knowing that the body holds our history, emotions, and spirit. Growing up in a household where work was constant and rest was rare, dance became a refuge—a way to experience connection, joy, and collective strength beyond circumstance.

As a teenager, movement revealed itself as a quiet form of resistance: a reclaiming of pleasure, presence, and humanity in environments where creativity and leisure were often privileges.

Now based in Tulum, Maria works with movement as a universal language. Through dance, embodied awareness, and physical and energetic massage therapy, she invites others to soften into their bodies and reconnect with their inner wisdom—free from judgment, repression, or performance.

What people are saying about working with Mark

  • I released shame I didn’t even know I was carrying. I stopped over-functioning and started trusting my body. This work didn’t just heal me. It gave me back to myself.

    —Natalie

  • After decades of anxiety and people-pleasing, I now feel calm, clear, and grounded. I walk into rooms without bracing. I speak without apology. I finally feel like me.

    —Alex

  • “This work changed my relationships, my nervous system, and my business. I’m making more money, doing less, and attracting aligned opportunities left and right.

    —Soledad

Retreat FAQs

What is The Shadow Code™?

This process is a system-wide recalibration—delivered through the sacred trinity of:

🜂 Body | 🜃 Subconscious | 🜄 Soul

We don’t just label your patterns. We unravel the exact moment you learned to smile instead of speak up and rewrite it in your nervous system.

The belief that saying “no” makes you selfish or that asking for help makes you weak.

We track how you shrink in meetings, soften your language in texts, or stay silent in bed—just to keep the peace. That’s doesn’t work for you anymore.

It’s time to align with the version of you who speaks her truth and owns it.
