Your Guides
David Romanelli witnessed a total eclipse in 1991 and 2017. Once you see one, you want to see them all! He will curate your Trip to the Total Eclipse with yoga and meditation, and share stories and context for the rarity, meaning and symbolism of this experience. David has written three books, and speaks nationally about why “Happy is the New Healthy.” For more, visit: www.davidromanelli.com
Campbell Fearing will speak about the meaning of a total eclipse: learning from and releasing the past... to better embrace the future. Campbell recently overcame leukemia and as he said, “surprisingly, I was grateful for this. I am grateful because that journey gave me more gratitude. More gratitude for good health and also gratitude for a struggle that I can share with other people and perhaps inspire them to keep hoping. Trails are blessings once we ascend them. They give us character and can sometimes teach us more about what matters in life.”
Remo Romanelli, a 3rd Grader, teaches meditation to kids and has his own platform, Meditation by Kids, For Kids. Being that this Trip to Eclipse is family-friendly (we hope you bring your kids and grandkids) Remo will lead us on a kid-friendly meditation to set the tone for the awe-some moment you’re about to experience.

More on the total eclipse
Listen to the sounds from my previous retreat to see the Total Eclipse of the Sun (August 21, 2017)
Listen to the sounds of a Mom and her child watching the Total Eclipse in 2017
“Seagulls dispersed. In the shadows of palm fronds, spots of light exploded into crescent moons. Winds changed direction. Stars came twinkling into view, in a strangely foreboding sky. Temperatures plummeted, and people began to hug themselves and one another.”
- NY Times
“In rating natural wonders, on a scale of 1 to 10, a total eclipse of the sun is a MILLION!"

But when his 3 year old daughter was diagnosed with leukemia in 2020, David dealt with another level of challenges.Psychedelic therapy was profoundly helpful in addressing trauma and coming to life with fresh perspective. This created a shift in his career path and David began refocusing his meditation platform as an integration tool.

Reflect
A psychedelic experience opens new neural pathways in your brain, and gets you thinking differently.The various psychedelic molecules interact with your brain in such a way that it feels unlocked, allowing disparate regions to connect.Areas of the brain become activated that were previously dormant.While your psychedelic experience is still fresh, we will guide you on looking back and journaling on what you remember, what you learned, what you discovered.
Listen
Music often creates the set and setting for the psychedelic journey and allows you to reconnect with the memories.Music plays a huge role in the outcome. relaxes the nervous system, and creates dual awareness.It anchors you in the present moment but binds you to a non-ordinary experience.
Breathe
What were the sights, smells, textures, and tastes that bring you back to your journey?Forming memory through sense perception speaks in the language of nature and brings you closer to the energy of spirit and plant medicine.
Nurture
What was born and revealed in your experience?A dream, a liberated self, a sense of self-love?This exercise will focus on giving shape, story, and breathing room to the new life born on your journey.It’s too easy to revert back to the everyday grind and forget.We will ask you to nurture what was revealed and integrate into your relationships, routines, and practices.
Bridge
How do you bridge the divide from your inspired self experienced in your psychedelic journey...and your everyday self?We will ask you to be less ego-driven, give up control, and expand surrender.It’s a shift from 'What do you need' to 'How can you be helpful and healing to yourself and those around you.'
Connect
It can feel unsettling to come out and say what you’ve experienced to those unfamiliar with psychedelics.Every Friday we will have a gathering with people old and new to the psychedelic experience.It’s a moment to Integrate insights from others who have been there and know the profound shifts and challenges that come with integrating those shifts.
Practice
Daily meditation is a natural passage from the psychedelic state to the ordinary state.It’s a tool to maintain the opening, the awareness, the heightened perception.But like any skill, it must be practiced to build the muscle and maintain the openings.
