Healing Immersive Retreats
Gold Monarch’s Healing Gatherings are designed to target every component of life—the physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual. When most people think about healing from pain or trauma, they first think about the heart—which is the most important component. But healing is about the total being, which is why our Healing Gatherings are a 3.5-day overall look at every part of life. Each person will receive ministry to the entire being, and then leave with a plan to maintain and then grow and mature into deeper freedom and intimacy.
The Spirit
Worshipping God is never just about lyrics and music. It’s about a deep heart connection of adoration through intimate relationship. At our healing gatherings, the primary goal is to connect your heart with a deeper relationship with Father God, and this involves experiencing His presence through live worship and encounter. Our worship leader will help to lead you into the deep waters of God’s presence where His glory can revive, heal, and transform from the inside-out.
To some, the term ‘soaking’ might sound strange, but it’s simply allowing John 4:19 to manifest in our hearts: “We love because He FIRST loved us.” It’s impossible to love God from a whole heart when parts of the heart are still wounded, and soaking in the presence of God simply positions the heart to be loved on. It’s simply allowing your heart to receive. In a soaking session, you can lie down, you can fall asleep, you can cry—whatever is needed to begin allowing your heart to open up and receive the fullness of healing Father has for you.
If fifty-two sermons a year transformed our hearts, then as the church, we might be a bit healthier than we are right now. The Living Word is a man named Jesus, which is why we never simply seek to teach to your logic—we want you to learn by experience, and that involves your heart. Our teaching sessions are practical, Biblical, and informative to help minister to your heart, all while preparing it for deeper healing.
The Heart
“Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.” Psalm 86:11
After two decades of professional therapy as a licensed family counselor, Amy Black knew there had to be a faster way to get people free. With her training and education, along with over forty years of full-time ministry, it was taking years to counsel clients into things she knew Jesus could heal. She believed that if God could lead someone to the heart of the issue, then He could fix it immediately. And permanently.
And this began happening.
After years of praying, crying out to God, studying, and training in inner healing (including Sozo ministry from Bethel church in Redding, California; Freedom Resources from Andy Reese; the Trauma Prayer with Jim and Pat Banks; but primarily ministering through HeartSync from Andrew Miller in Tallahassee, Florida), Amy continues to see the broken put back together and made whole—in all parts of life.
A HeartSync ministry session is simply a counseling session led by Jesus. But instead of revisiting past trauma, HeartSync begins with an Emmanuel Moment that begins with a powerful experience of deep connection with Father God. Out of that experience of connection, He is able to lead and guide to the deep places of the heart without bringing further trauma.
Instead of reasoning to the logic of a person’s head—trying to find the problem and convince the mind to change over years of counseling—Jesus goes immediately to the heart of the issue, bringing an experience of healing that’s both powerful and life-changing. And as Jesus is allowed to uncover the brokenness that destroys our lives, the pain miraculously heals, syncing the heart back to wholeness made available in Christ. The facilitator’s primary purpose in a session is to simply rudder the ship while God blows the boat to freedom.
The Body
Every trauma or hurt that you’ve been through affected your physical body in some way, down to the cellular level. Years of emotional pain take their toll on the physical makeup, affecting every system of the body. To achieve wholeness in every area, Gold Monarch provides body treatments to help release the toxins, chemicals, and stresses that lodge in our bodies through emotional pain and trauma.
Infrared saunas are an effective tool for natural healing and prevention. Infrared light has the ability to penetrate human tissue, which in turn produces a host of anti-aging benefits, detoxifies the body at the cellular level where toxins reside, and provides pain relief to joints, tissues, and muscles to relieve anything from minor aches and pains, to chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia. Infrared saunas improve blood flow and circulation, lower blood pressure, aid in relaxation and weight loss, and help to heal wounds by promoting faster cell generation in the skin and human tissue growth. Infrared therapy stimulates the circulatory system and more fully oxygenates the body’s cells. Better blood circulation means more toxins flow from the cellular level to the skin’s surface to improve cell health, aiding in muscle recovery and strengthening the immune system.
When most think about massage therapy, they simply think about stress relief. And while stress is one of the main causes of sickness in the United States, massage therapy can also play a key role in enhancing immunity by stimulating lymph flow, increasing joint flexibility, lessening depression and anxiety, promoting tissue regeneration, and improving circulation. It releases endorphins into the body, which are amino acids that work as the body’s natural painkiller.
Raindrop Technique is a sequence of anointing with oils, by the laying on of hands and prayer, that brings structural and electrical alignment to the body in a relaxing and invigorating manner through the unique properties of essential oils. The technique was created by the founder of Young Living, Gary Young, after 20 years of research. The oils used are immune-enhancing and support the body’s natural defenses, as well as the circulatory, respiratory, endocrine, digestive, nervous, and other body systems. These oils, which are high in antioxidants, are also mood-elevating and immune system-supporting, creating an unfavorable environment for harmful viruses and bacteria that can hibernate in the body. Essential oils are known to boost stamina and energy, help you relax, help manage stress and frustration, help release trauma stored in the cells, and promote overall health, vitality and longevity. The essential oils will begin the process of detoxification in the cells, as well as cleanse the cellular receptor sites, enabling the release of toxins or disease wherever they may be lodged – including those illnesses lodged in the mind and emotions. Each person receives from the Raindrop what that person is needing, so no two experiences are the same. Raindrop Technique is a non-secular art and science.
Gold Monarch believes that divine health encompasses all parts of life, including the foods that we put into our bodies. In order to truly be whole in every area, we must look at one of the main components sustaining life in our bodies, and that’s the quality of the food we’re eating. We offer nutritional therapy consultations for each client, setting up a specialized plan for each individual need. Our licensed therapist takes a holistic approach to complete health. Through an evaluation including a series of questions, she will work with each client to create a personal nutrition plan that will lead them on a pathway to achieve optimal health – balancing body chemistry through both nutrition and supplementation.
