Breath of EGYPT
November 25 - December 5, 2026 

Are you feeling the pull to Egypt?  It is amazing to see how this ancient land acts as a magnet to people who are deep in their spiritual evolution.  It is a great honor to lead people on this epic journey with a carefully curated itinerary, a well held container, gorgeous accommodations - all so you can open yourself to receiving the wisdom and experience the mysticism yourself. Together we will discover the profound connection between breath, spirit, and the timeless intelligence of Egypt on this once-in-a-lifetime retreat. Designed for seekers, healers, and those yearning for deeper self-awareness and healing across lifetimes, this sacred journey will guide you through Egypt's most spiritual and awe-inspiring sites, all while engaging in breathwork journeys and other healing modalities that align body, mind, and soul with the ancient energy of this holy land. 

The Hosts

I, Claudia Nanino, am a master breathwork facilitator, crystal curator, and an explorer of non-ordinary states of consciousness.  I've led thousands of breathwork journeys and never cease to be amazed by the power of this modality and the type of people it attracts: fellow seekers and self healers (you). I've been deeply focused on healing my heart and am eager to share the knowledge and practices that have benefitted me.  ​​I've facilitated retreats for the last 10 years and after taking my first group to Egypt last year, I am eager to connect further with this land and continue the love affair. I'm working with Rabie Khaled, Egyptologist, Khmetologist, mystic, and expert guide, to produce this epic journey.
