Echo Giesel Widmer
Full Circle: The Mystic's Path
Guide of the Threshhold Spaces
San diego
My name is Echo. Throughout my life, I have been a seeker, guided by an intuition that whispered from the depths of my being. My journey has been a tapestry of chaos and clarity, woven with threads of uncertainty and turmoil. This reflected the inner landscape I navigated—one that was equally tumultuous and obscure. Through the crucible of trial and error, and the depths of suffering and self-reflection, I encountered moments of profound awakening. These experiences shattered the illusion of victimhood and illuminated the path to conscious, intentional living. In the darkest nights of my soul, I found humility and grace. Now, standing on the other side of victimization, my purpose is clear: to serve as a beacon for others seeking liberation from their own shadows. I aspire to be a resource, a guide, and a companion on the journey back to the self—back to the center, to the truth, to the eternal embrace of love over illusion. May my journey inspire others to transcend the veils of separation and rediscover the unity that lies within us all. Want to work together? We will focus deeply on our physical shells becoming safe containers for the assimilation of teachings and practices. We will look at and learn to transform disempowering belief systems, fear-based reactivity, ineffective communication, and unhealthy habits within our daily lives. We will find ways to effectively create balance in all areas of our daily life to receive what life is trying to reveal to us. When we are no longer simply surviving, but living from a place of embodied empowerment, confidence, and presence our choices become discerning and endless, and our boundaries well maintained and nurturing.

What Clients Are Saying
"The Out of Exile retreat was nothing like any other retreat I've experienced before. Most likely, I will remember this as one of - or even the - most profound experience of my life. A carefully and well thought out, craftsful, and artful exquisite blend of yoga, meditation, movement, embodiment, psychological concepts theory brought to practice, tribe & community, deep connection to nature, the land, and the trees, ritual & ceremony, lamenting & keening, and deep inner work. This container with its sophisticated arc of progression was held, guided, and orchestrated with so much love, care, knowledge and wisdom, tenderness, yet power & strength by Echo as our guide. Offering a space that felt rooted in deep authenticity and integrity which gave me the possibility to fully surrender and explore and to feel seen, heard, and safely held in all my experiences.. Thank you for everything"

"I do not know how to articulate my gratitude, other than I am experiencing life beyond what I thought was possible, and the gift of that not only for myself but all those around me is infinite. Thank you with all of my being"

"I have never felt safer to meet myself fully, even in the discomfort that that entails - the presence of the facilitators, the vows, the space, all had our greatest good as their intent and that allowed such magic to unfold for me. I experienced nourishment on all levels - accommodation, Antonio's food, connection, support, evolution. This felt like a deep heart and soul offering from Echo - not casual work, it was clear to me that the foundations are bone deep and the field held with such care and clarity, all that was destined flowed through, and I feel this is reflected in the participants who joined - we felt like family."
