Sacred Gatherings
There are moments when the ordinary rhythm of life no longer suffices—when achievements, roles, and good intentions still leave a quiet hunger for something truer. Sacred Gatherings are invitations to answer that call.
These are held experiences that remove the static, expand your field of presence, and open a living doorway to deeper insight. Each container is intentionally small, carefully stewarded, and designed to translate spiritual depth into real-world clarity and action.
Below are the three primary ways we hold that container: journeys that relocate the soul, retreats that concentrate attention, and local gatherings that sustain the field between deeper experiences.

Sacred Travel
Journey with intention
Travel awakens the senses and fractures habitual patterns—essential conditions for deep change.
John Leto curates small, carefully guided journeys to places chosen for their energetic resonance and capacity to catalyze inner shift. These departures are not tourism; they are pilgrimage: mornings to ground, teachings and ceremony to open, quiet time to integrate, and guided reflection to translate insight into life.
The locations are always sacred, holding an energy that you must be present with to understand.
Â


Lodging, meals, and logistics are handled so you can rest into the work; what remains is attentive presence and mutual care.
On a sacred journey you move beyond sightseeing into meaningful encounter—with landscape, lineage, history, energy, and the deeper parts of yourself. The itinerary is rich but unhurried, designed to invite surrender rather than performance. Days are structured to support initiation: practices that tether you to the body, group work that amplifies insight, and time alone to receive what the place offers.
Most travel experience includes pre-trip preparation and post-trip integration so the shifts you experience do not remain ephemeral. You leave with tangible tools, a support plan for daily life, and a deeper horizon of inner clarity that continues to unfold long after you return home.
Retreats & Workshops
Step into concentrated time
Retreats are concentrated windows where possibility is amplified.
A retreat or workshop from John Leto ranges from intimate weekend intensives to multi-day residential immersions. Programs are built around a clear intention—clarity, leadership presence, healing, or creative emergence.
They blend teaching, guided practice, ceremonial elements, and time for silent reflection. Of course, the retreat is also experiential: breathwork, somatic inquiry, guided meditation, and ancient-wisdom ceremonies to move you from your thinking mind into felt knowing.
Â


Workshops offer focused skill and integration: sustaining presence under pressure, practical tools for daily embodiment, or methods to dissolve habitual reactivity.
Retreats go deeper, offering longer times that multiplies insight. Both formats are designed for people who hold significant responsibilities—practices take account of your real life … while still inviting fundamental change.
Thoughtful integration support is part of every program. Before you leave, you will co-create a plan to bring what you’ve received home: practices tailored to your schedule, resources to support continuation, and options for follow-up work so the transformation is grounded, practical, and ongoing.
Local Gatherings & Private Circles
Keep the field alive
Retreats are concentrated windows where possibility is amplified.
Not every step requires a long withdrawal. Local gatherings and private circles are regular opportunities to practice, be held, and refresh the field of clarity. These may be monthly evening circles, day-long intensives held regionally, or bespoke sessions brought directly to your home or organization.
Formats are intimate and intentional—movement, breath, short teachings, and shared reflection—designed to maintain momentum between larger experiences.
Â


Private gatherings are ideal for teams, leadership groups, or close networks seeking a tailored container for inquiry and renewal. John designs these experiences to match the group’s needs: leadership alignment days that blend strategy with presence practice; partner retreats to deepen relational presence; or creative team days that reconnect work to purpose and flow.
Everything is adjusted—pace, practice, and the degree of ceremonial or somatic work—to ensure depth, safety, and practical follow-through.
People return, over-and-over again, to these circles because the field created together supports an ongoing trajectory of growth.
The work is not episodic; it becomes a steady practice that reshapes how you show up in life, work, and relationship.
