Rite of Passage
Team & Solo Mountain Immersions

1 to 3 Day Guided Journeys with Mount Shasta Guide Michael Chudzik
 

A Journey of Remembering, Releasing and Becoming

Rite of Passage Solo and Private Group Journeys ~ 

Guided from the foothills of Mount Shasta — A Journey of Remembering, Releasing, and Becoming

A true rite of passage is more than a retreat—it is a threshold. A deliberate crossing from one chapter of life into the next. When you step into this sacred immersion, you are not just visiting Mount Shasta—you are entering a ceremonial container designed to awaken what has been waiting inside you all along.

 

What our working together could look like:
I am guided by over 20 years of coaching and walking on I have been guiding and leading rites-of-passage on Mount Shasta for over 8 years.

Held from my private 5-acre camping sanctuary and home at the base of Mount Shasta, or from the convenience of the local lodgings  - these 1–3 day journeys are intimate and elemental.

Together, we’ll walk through forests, climb to ancient rock sanctuaries, kneel at hidden springs, and sit in prayer at places I call “the hidden altars of the Mountain”—places you won’t find in any guidebook. Some have taken decades to reveal themselves. Others will reveal themselves just for you.

Each day becomes a ceremonial arc: we open with intention, walk with reverence, and close in fire or water. The land speaks, and I listen beside you—not as a guru, but as a guide. You are the one walking the spiral.

This is not about adding more information to your life—it’s about letting go. Clarifying. Receiving. Re-membering who you are.

Many who come to me are navigating life transitions: grief, divorce, awakening, purpose-seeking, or soul longing. Others simply feel called by the mountain and don’t know why—only that it’s time.

To Help This Experience Last a Lifetime...
​
Before and after your immersion,

I offer 1-on-1 preparation and integration sessions as a Master Life Coach, to help you anchor what came through.

Because what we touch out there deserves to live in the life you return to.
