About this Retreat
Eileen is a multi-talented individual with a diverse range of skills and experiences. She is a dedicated Plant Medicine Practitioner, a former humanitarian worker, a skilled journalist, and an intuitive tarot reader. Eileen has spent the last 13 years living in Cambodia, where she has been working hard to revive the country's ancient wisdom keepers and their traditions, which were nearly lost during the Khmer Rouge era.
Eileen's journey began with a profound realization during a sacred medicine ceremony in the jungles of Ecuador, which opened up new possibilities for her. This experience has inspired her to pursue her passion for helping others discover their true purpose and live a life of courage, accountability, vulnerability, and personal freedom.
Today, Eileen utilizes her vast wisdom to guide her clients in embracing their highest selves, unlocking pathways to freedom, abundance, and inner peace.
Eileen's expertise is enriched by her profound knowledge of the ancient science of the I Ching and the modern Gene Keys, subjects she passionately explores. She has the privilege of working with a diverse clientele, ranging from founders and academics to entrepreneurs, educators, and creatives, assisting them in uncovering their dharma and fulfilling their life's true purpose.
Eileen established Somaya with the mission of motivating young Cambodians to rediscover their sacred indigenous heritage and embark on a path of deep healing and empowerment. Her unwavering commitment to her soul's calling and her endeavors to rejuvenate ancient wisdom serve as a remarkable source of inspiration. Eileen is a visionary and a driving force for positive transformation, shaping the lives of her clients and contributing to Cambodia's cultural heritage in a profound and lasting way.
Raksmey, a naturally gifted healer, was chosen by the revered gurus and priests of her community at a young age. They identified her special talent for connecting with the unseen and granted her the ability to acknowledge the extraordinary from an early stage in her life. Growing up immersed in captivating Hindu and Indian literature, she absorbed stories that shaped her belief that every person she met was, essentially, divine in disguise ("God in Drag").
Drawn from a combination of personal experiences and intensive training in plant medicine and psychedelic-assisted therapy, Raksmey committed to dedicating her life to supporting Asian communities and individuals of other ethnicities.
Her mission is to help people discover the tools and vocabulary within their ancestral languages, allowing them to overcome the generational suffering that had been suppressed for too long. Reflecting the essence of her name, which signifies a valuing of one's intrinsic worth, Raksmey embarked on a journey similar to that depicted in the Tarot. She bravely stepped off the precipice and found her true self along the way, ultimately honoring and finding her life's purpose.
Raksmey now honors her Indian heritage by dedicating herself to holding space and sharing her ancient wisdom. She offers nurturing guidance and encouragement to all who are brave enough to seek their own form of self-expression and rediscover their innate self-worth.
Dr. Hiromi Kawai is a doctor who went to the Kawasaki Medical College in Kurashiki, Japan, and got her degree there.
She practices Japanese alternative medicine and treats muscle pain with a mix of Japanese acupuncture and painful massage. Traditional Chinese medicine is used in Japanese acupuncture. Thin needles are inserted into certain spots on the body. A painful massage is a type of massage that uses deep pressure to release muscle tightness. Painful massages started in Japan more than a thousand years ago. They use deep pressure to loosen up tight muscles. It helps break up knots and clumps in the muscles. There is pain for a short time, but it typically goes away after that and the patient feels relieved.
Dr Hiromi also uses the Asada method to treat cancer. The Japanese physician Dr. Teruo Asada came up with the Asada method in the 1970s. It is a way to kill cancer cells by exposing them to the mumps virus. For the Asada method to work, the mumps virus is injected into the growth. The virus then makes copies of itself inside the cancer cells, which kills them. The virus is made to attack only cancer cells and not healthy ones.
Cancers like breast cancer, lung cancer, and brain tumors have all been treated with the Asada method. But the method can have side affects for some people, so those who want to see Dr. Hiromi need to first go through a series of tests in the lab.
Harley, a member of an ethnic group in Cambodia, discovered from a young age that she had a different mindset than those around her. As a young girl, she had many unanswered questions and married at 14 to escape her past, but divorced after just one year to pursue her high school education.
After finishing school, Harley discovered Khmer martial arts, which transformed her life. Through her training, she experienced a deeper connection to the spirit of a warrior, significantly changing her perspective.
In 2021, Harley experienced a crisis, feeling disconnected from her spirit and losing her connection to social life for six months. Her senior Bokator instructor, who has been teaching in Cambodia for over 10 years, was a source of comfort during this difficult time, texting her to wake her up from bad dreams.
To navigate these spiritual tests, Harley connected with the Master of Yant Khmer in Siem Reap to gain more spiritual understanding. She delved into exploring emotional constructs further, experiencing strange dreams and stories, ultimately mastering profound and divine energies.
Harley is a wisdom keeper at Somaya retreats, where she helps those on a healing journey find their spiritual potential through customized, whole-person care. Her bespoke approach takes into account one's emotional and mental well-being.
She is an exceptionally compassionate practitioner who teaches people how to use the warrior spirit to find pure awareness and strength. She continues to work with many master teachers as she progresses to master ancient Khmer magical arts, inviting the global community to learn alongside her.
