About this Retreat
Laura is the owner of Divine Emergence and a dedicated psychospiritual guide. With a deep passion for integrating psychology, spirituality, physiology, and earth medicines, Laura's transformative practices draw from her background in psychology and mental health, enriched by spiritual teachings, bioenergetics, and entheogenic-assisted therapies.
Understanding how childhood experiences and family dynamics shape our lives, Laura helps clients connect with their breath and bodies to gain insights into their past and its impact on the present. Her healing approach combines psychological insights with various practices, ensuring lasting transformation and a more fulfilling lifestyle.
At the heart of Laura's practice is breathwork, a powerful tool that allows individuals to access and release stored emotions and trauma. This innate healing method has been effective for addressing a range of issues, including autoimmune disorders, addictions, fertility challenges, depression, and anxiety. After experiencing her own transformative journey with breathwork, which helped her overcome dependence on pharmaceuticals and heal from hyperthyroidism, Laura is committed to sharing its benefits with others.
In addition to breathwork, Laura offers entheogenic therapy for those seeking deeper healing. With careful guidance and integration support, this approach can lead to significant shifts in mind, body, and spirit.
Laura's core values include integrity, safety, and trust— as she supports individuals on their journeys toward authenticity and liberation.
I’m Netta Nicosia, and my passion lies in guiding others through the transformative power of breathwork. Breathwork is more than just a technique; it’s a profound healing tool that taps into the body’s innate ability to release trauma, calm the nervous system, and reconnect with the self. In my practice, I focus on helping individuals heal from within by creating space for emotional release, nervous system regulation, and deep self-awareness.
As a certified breathwork facilitator, I offer sessions that are designed to clear blocked energy, process unhealed trauma, and create a sense of inner peace and clarity. Breathwork has the unique ability to access the body’s subconscious, allowing deep-seated emotions to rise to the surface and be processed. This process can transform not only the body but also the mind and spirit, leading to a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I integrate mindfulness, sound healing, and meditation into my sessions, creating a holistic approach to healing. Whether through one-on-one coaching, group workshops, or personalized breathwork sessions, my goal is to help others tap into their own power, release what no longer serves them, and experience profound personal transformation. My clients often report feeling lighter, more connected, and empowered after sessions, as they learn to harness the power of the breath for lasting healing and growth.
I’m here to guide you on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and connection to the divine within. Together, we’ll work through the layers of stored trauma and emotional pain, allowing you to live with more freedom, joy, and inner peace.
Details of this retreat
Who Is This Retreat For? The Empress Escape Retreat is for women ready to push their edges and explore their inner worlds. Whether you’re seeking healing, growth, or a deeper connection with yourself and others, this retreat invites all women to join us in this jungle oasis for a day filled of transformation and tools used for exponential growth. This is for the women who are tired of playing small!
Why Are We Having It? In a world that often asks women to conform to expectations, this retreat serves as a sanctuary for self-exploration and empowerment. By working with both our shadows and our light, we create space for healing, vulnerability, trust, surrender, and authenticity. This retreat offers a unique opportunity to dive deep into personal growth while building a supportive community of like-minded women. Once we break through limiting barriers with breathwork and the other somatic/tantric exercises, we will be opened up to receiving more, in all areas of our lives, while truly finding our voices in this process. The somatic practices and cathartic release, plus nurturement and care, makes this retreat very special and allows for growth and expansion, naturally, in the container in which it will be held.
What Can Women Gain? Women can gain their lives back! Their voice. Their freedoms. Their sexiness. Their bodies!
They will fully Reclaim Their Realm!
Here we will experience the following and more:
Breathwork Mastery: Experience breathwork as the cornerstone of the retreat, helping you release blockages, connect with your inner self, and achieve relaxation and clarity. Become aware of how the breath will change your realm before you and within you. Reclamation begins with the breath! Especially during the transformative breathwork session, where Netta and Laura will guide you through an extended session, to release trauma and stored emotions from deep within the body. This is where true transformation begins to happen.
Tantra Practices: Engage in transformative tantra practices that promote self-love, sensuality, and the exploration of your feminine energy. Some will include blindfolded exercises, roses and ropes (sensual shibari), and sensual dance. This will allow us to push our edges and dive deeper when we enter the more holistic portion of the evening.
Connective Exercises: Participate in exercises designed to foster deep sisterhood like connections, allowing for trust and intimacy, and overall, AGENCY! Speaking up and asking for what you want and also sharing what you have to offer. Taking ownership if you prefer to lead or to follow. Finding out your role within yourself which then transpires into your outside world.
Sound Bath Experience: Enjoy a healing sound bath, where vibrations and frequencies promote relaxation and inner harmony. Netta and Laura are both sound healers and wish to bring the most incredible sound healing experience to you while floating in the oasis. Be sure to get a VIP Ticket to reserve a float for the bath!
