Please read all the way to the end for all the information - do not contact the resort directly. The registration request form is at the bottom of this page.
Reverend Bill has been sharing the universal messages of love, forgiveness, gratitude and unity in speaking engagements and self healing workshops across the globe. In that time, he has encountered many beautiful souls who are incorporating his messages into their own unique life journeys.
Now is the time to go deeper than ever before with Rev. Bill and friends in a multi-day retreat set in the majestic setting of Mount Shasta at the Wisdom of the Heart Center on May 1-5, 2026. The primary retreat will be May 1-3, with May 4-5 being an extension to spend more time together and explore the Mount Shasta area for those who are able. All will come together to explore the themes of love, forgiveness, gratitude and unity - with a special focus on the entry gate of self-forgiveness.
Rev. Bill will be joined by his ever expanding soul family who will share their own gifts with the group, including local Mount Shasta astrologer and shaman, Eric Starwalker, sound and energy healer Kana Koinuma, soul psychology, spiritual mentor and energy healer Pontea Dianati, PhD and many more.
This will be a retreat for All by All in a sacred, powerful and safe energetic container. Rev. Bill is looking to develop people that will take his messages of love, forgiveness and gratitude into the continuing decades.
Rev. Bill has described this as a spiritual slumber party in an ashram style environment. He has also called it a "Boot Camp" for Spiritual Warriors.
There will be evening and morning meditations, satsangs, energy healing, yoga, group and individual discussions, hiking and spending time in nature.
Sleeping arrangements
A limited number of beds and bedrooms are available, floorspace, couches, tents and cots for overflow. If these accommodations are a concern for you, please reach out for additional options. If you desire privacy, or better comfort levels, there are hotels and a house next door to this property where you can rent a room.
Food
One vegetarian or vegan community meal provided per day, with everyone assisting in the shopping, cooking and cleaning. You can bring additional food and snacks if needed (vegetarian only).
We ask all participants to avoid alcohol, drugs, smoking, etc during the retreat to keep the environment conducive to high energy work.
This facility is legally considered a club house for it's members - so there is a one time (Lifetime) membership fee of $10 for everyone attending.
Look for a live ZOOM Meeting in the coming few weeks for questions and more detailed information. That time and link will be shared with those who have registered.
Registration will be open through April 15, 2026.
We have no idea of the number of people wishing to attend - early people will be given priority - those registering later can certainly rent a hotel room for sleeping if they wish. If you have a van or car you can also sleep in it. The registration is only for the retreat itself - beds and such are first come bases.
To reserve your spot, fill out the registration request form at the bottom of this page.
Price is donation based. Think about how much you would pay for 4-5 nights at a hotel or for an ashram style program/retreat of similar length. We don’t want price to be a barrier for anyone attending, so please give what you are able to, from the heart. Our goal is to cover the cost of the program and put excess funds towards future retreats.
After securing your spot by filling out the form below, and waiting to hear confirmation back from Kana or Pontea, please donate here.
