Beautiful soul
Elvire is an ethereal being. She is gentle and kind and has such a warm essence.
I feel honoured to have been in her presence and learn some of her practices which I will definitely integrate into my day-to-day life.
She is extremely knowledgeable and has a true gift and it is very generous of her to share it with the world. Her singing voice is angelic also!
Thank you for the best week of my life 🫶

Great teacher and facilitator
Jarrod is amazing. He is such a genuine, kind soul and I am so grateful to have had the chance to learn from him.
He really knows his stuff and takes the time to help others understand. He runs the ceremonies with such care and love and it that really shines through. He has written some beautiful songs and has many gifts which I was lucky enough to experience over the week.
Thank you for the guidance and chats - I won’t forget it! 🫶

Life changing journey ❤️
Words are not going to come close to explaining just how wonderful the week long Pathways to Connection retreat was. I have been drawn to do a plant medicine retreat for quite some time but after months of research, nothing felt right for me.
I was close to giving up altogether but thankfully the universe aligned and I came across Ithaca retreats and I am eternally grateful. From the very first Zoom call with Elvire and Jarrod and throughout all the planning, everything felt exactly right. I was travelling from the other side of the world and so a little apprehensive when the retreat was approaching but the warmth and support I received in abundance made it easy.
The week far exceeded any expectation I had and was a truly magical experience. It’s hard to believe this was their first retreat together as everything was perfect and it feels like they have been doing this forever. The ceremonies were conducted with such care and all the integration aspects around it were really well thought out (breathwork, yoga, meditation, music etc). Elvire and Jarrod both have such beautiful voices and I need those songs in my life!
The venue is divine and it really made you feel at home (thank you Sander and Varsh) and their animals are adorable.
The meals were exceptional and the epitome of soul food. It was truly nourishing.
The group was also perfect, such beautiful souls who I feel like I’d known forever.
I cannot fault a single thing, aside from having to leave which was really sad.
I’m overflowing with gratitude and will definitely return for another one (if they will have me!!)
Thank you 🙏
