CACAO +
SOUND HEALING
An Evening of Pure Bliss at Peaceful River
Friday, November 13, 2026
7:00–9:00 PM
A gentle, intimate two-hour evening at Peaceful River Retreat & Event Center, intentionally limited to just six participants, creating a welcoming space for meaningful connection, personal attention, and deep restoration.
Guided by Sarah DeVoe, this heart-centered experience brings together ceremonial cacao, guided meditation, immersive sound healing, and quiet reflection. With just six places available, each guest is invited to step away from the busyness of daily life, release the demands of the week, and simply receive, surrounded by the natural beauty of Montana's Bitterroot Valley.
You Are So Loved…
Sometimes we need more than a night off.
We need space to become quiet enough to hear ourselves again.
This evening is an invitation to come as you are, set down whatever you have been carrying, and spend a little time reconnecting with yourself in the peaceful surroundings of Peaceful River.
Sarah will gently guide the evening through cacao, meditation and immersive sound, creating space for rest, reflection and connection without pressure or expectation.
There is nothing you need to accomplish here.
Just arrive.
Breathe.
Receive.
A Gentle Evening to Come Back to Yourself
-
Life can feel full, and sometimes the greatest gift we can give ourselves is permission to pause. This evening offers a welcoming space to step away from responsibilities, quiet the mind, and simply be present.
-
Whether this is your first experience or something you already love, you are welcome. Sarah will gently guide you through cacao, meditation, and restorative sound. No previous experience is needed, and there is nothing you need to get right.
-
If you've been giving a lot of yourself lately, this is an opportunity to receive. Settle into the soothing sounds of crystal bowls, chimes, and other instruments as you allow yourself time to rest, reflect, and reconnect.
-
There is something special about coming together with others who have made the same choice to slow down. Share in a gentle, supportive experience where you can feel welcomed, included, and connected, without pressure or expectations.
-
You don't need a particular reason to be here. You don't need to be going through something difficult or searching for answers. Sometimes two peaceful hours, surrounded by warmth, sound, and the beauty of Peaceful River, are reason enough.

Testimonials about Sarah…
I was guided to an opportunity to attend a Reiki Retreat with Sarah in Yellowstone MT. I jumped on it knowing how intuitive and healing she is 😇. it was the most magical experience! Sarah kept the group small that weekend, which was nice because my nervous system was overburdened at the time. The small group allowed all of the Reiki "sisters" to come together in a very safe and intimate way. Sarah had lots of fun and healing activities planned for us, but not too many, there was lots of time for rest and space to " do our own thing" in-between . Given Sarah's teaching background, I feel like that was the perfect compliment to the Reiki weekend. - She is great at planning! Fun outdoor adventures, games , meals, and different healing modalities. A beautiful connection with magical humans, nature and myself. The Reiki Retreat allowed me to rest, reset, connect and by the end if the weekend I felt rejuvenated recharged! . I enjoyed it so Much I jumped on the next opportunity offered, which was in Glacier MT a few months later!! The 2nd Retreat was even better, if that was possible!! I am forever grateful for the experience and life changing connections that I made attending her Retreats ❤️. I have definitely been on the lookout for the next one being offered as it was a deep healing experience on a "soul" level 🙏.
—Anna Stephens
Sarah creates a beautiful and nurturing space for others to come together to learn and share Reiki. Her touch is both intentional and respectfully present. I am grateful to be a part of her Reiki Circle and held by the sacred spaces she provides. Sarah creates experiences that are deeply nurturing and supportive.
—Debra Sommer
My experience with Sarah, both as a Reiki practitioner and retreat facilitator, has been an offering of sincere love and goodness. Her devotion to living love, her compassion for all that lives and breathes, and her desire for those to hear the wisdom of soul is foundational for her. Sarah understands the life giving, and deep connection with the earth, and for this reason, thoughtfully creates space for being immersed in the teachings of nature. I also know this to be true being in her presence, that Sarah is love in action. She has my, and other's highest good in mind and heart, and embeddeds this truth in her retreats. I am deeply grateful for this.
