You are Seen, Heard & Guided on Each Nissa Retreat

Heidi Jaffe, Psychic Medium and Creator of Nissa Retreats

When you arrive at a Nissa Retreat, whether it’s the Awaken Your Wisdom Within gathering in Mexico or North Carolina, you’re stepping into more than just a beautiful location. You’re entering a sacred, thoughtfully held experience designed by Heidi Jaffe, where every guest is both supported by the group and seen as an individual. Heidi’s unique approach blends collective connection with personal attention, helping guests rediscover their inner wisdom, strengthen their intuition, and awaken their psychic and mediumship abilities.

Before the Retreat: Getting to Know You

From the moment someone registers, Heidi begins tuning in to who they are and what they need. Each retreat guest receives personalized attention before they even arrive. Through intake questions and intuitive attunement, Heidi starts to understand where each person is on their journey, emotionally, spiritually, and energetically. She reflects on what each guest might need most, whether it’s reassurance, guidance, or more grounding. By the time the retreat begins, she already has a sense of the group’s overall energy as well as the individual dynamics within it.

This is not a one-size-fits-all experience. Heidi’s goal is to meet people exactly where they are, whether they’ve been exploring their intuition for years or are just beginning to sense that inner pull. Her preparation helps create a space where everyone feels welcomed, safe, and ready to open up.

During the Retreat: The Balance of Collective and Individual Work

Once the retreat begins, the magic unfolds in both shared moments and intimate, one-on-one exchanges.

In the group workshops, guests learn together through sessions on the Clairs, that is, clairvoyance, clairsentience, clairaudience and explore intuitive tools like aura reading, chakra alignment, and psychic discernment. Group readings, breathwork, sound baths, sweat lodges, and waterfall ceremonies are woven into the schedule to help everyone deepen their connection to self and spirit. These shared rituals build trust, community, and energetic harmony.

But even within that collective container, Heidi makes sure every guest feels seen. She offers individual readings as part of the retreat, private sessions where she connects with each person’s energy to deliver insight and clarity. Throughout the days, Heidi is fully available for check-ins, quiet conversations, or spontaneous questions. She moves through the group during workshops, gently observing and offering guidance so guests can stay balanced and confident in what they’re experiencing.

Heidi’s approach is fluid, intuitive, and attentive. She knows when to give someone space and when to lean in with encouragement. After intense sessions or emotional breakthroughs, she provides moments for integration while helping guests process what surfaced and grounding the insights so they become practical tools for daily life.

What’s special about her method is that there’s no formal barrier between teaching time and connection time. Guests are encouraged to ask questions before, during, and after the workshops. Many say that this access and openness make them feel truly supported, even in moments of uncertainty or doubt. Heidi is present in the big group experiences but also during the in-between moments that matter most.

The Heart of Heidi’s Work

Heidi’s presence is marked by empathy, compassion, and deep understanding. She has a natural way of sensing when someone feels unsure or self-conscious, and she responds with warmth, humor, and honesty. Her encouragement builds trust, not just trust in her, but trust in yourself. She helps guests learn to recognize the subtle signals of intuition that are already present, guiding them to differentiate between emotional noise and true inner knowing.

She’s also remarkably clear and grounded. Rather than over-spiritualizing the work, Heidi helps participants understand their experiences in practical, relatable ways. This clarity helps people who might normally dismiss intuitive experiences see that what they feel is real and valuable.

Heidi’s consistency is another part of her magic. She’s there in the workshops, at the meals, on the hikes, and during quiet reflection time. Her availability reminds guests that intuitive growth doesn’t happen in isolated moments, it unfolds continuously, in both conversation and silence, in laughter and in stillness.

Why This Approach Works for Everyone

You don’t have to consider yourself “psychic” to benefit from this kind of retreat. Many guests arrive uncertain about what to expect, unsure if they’re intuitive at all. What they discover is that intuition isn’t something reserved for a few, it’s an innate part of being human. Heidi’s approach helps you recognize the ways intuition already shows up in your life, from gut instincts to subtle feelings that guide your decisions.

For those who are already intuitive, the retreat provides a deeper structure and confidence in using those gifts. For those who are just beginning to explore, it offers a safe and compassionate space to learn without pressure or comparison. Even guests who come mainly for rest and reflection leave with a clearer sense of themselves, better boundaries, and a renewed connection to their inner wisdom.

What’s most powerful is that Heidi’s one-on-one guidance ensures everyone receives what they need. There’s no hierarchy of experience, just a shared journey of discovery, guided by someone who knows how to help each person trust their own light.

Awaken Your Wisdom Within: Mexico and North Carolina

Both upcoming Awaken Your Wisdom Within retreats follow this same heart-centered approach.

In Mexico (November 2–7, 2025), guests gather at Punta Monterrey, a breathtaking ecological reserve on the Pacific coast. The retreat includes group and individual readings, aura and chakra workshops, breathwork, a sweat lodge ceremony, and a cleansing waterfall hike with a local shaman. With no cell service and nature as the only soundtrack, guests are invited to disconnect from noise and reconnect to their own rhythm.

In North Carolina (March 1–6, 2026), the retreat takes place in the peaceful mountains near Hendersonville. It offers the same intimate, high-touch structure, workshops on intuitive development, guided breathwork, and group rituals, all designed to help you open and integrate your intuitive gifts in a nurturing environment close to home.

Both locations carry the same intention: to create a space where people can clear old stories, release limitations, and step into a truer version of themselves—with Heidi walking beside them every step of the way.

A Closing Invitation

If you’ve ever felt a quiet whisper of intuition, a spark of knowing, or a curiosity about your own inner guidance, this is your invitation. You don’t need experience. You don’t need to believe you’re gifted. You just need an open heart and a willingness to explore.

Heidi Jaffe’s retreats are designed to help you trust yourself more deeply than ever before. Through her compassionate presence, personalized guidance, and the power of community, you’ll leave with tools to navigate life with more clarity, connection, and confidence.
