ASHLEY.

Thinking of going on a solo retreat….. just do it. My birthday was coming up and I wanted to do something I'd never done. I was ready to escape the outside world and focus on myself and find solitude. taking the time to do so was one of the best decisions that I've ever made.

I came across Ramsay's solo Retreat offering and after reading the description it entailed everything my soul desired. escape to the desert to ground myself with nature, nutritious meals, and daily Body Work by a very skilled professional.

Ramsey was warm and welcoming upon arrival. I had no idea what I was getting myself into but was ready to let go and be open to an Adventure outside of my Norm. The home was beautiful. I love the Aesthetics and knew this was precisely my vibe. Ramsey made me feel comfortable and he is full of knowledge. I soaked up as much as I could. he even inspired me to do a 48 hour water fast which I completed once I got home.

During my stay, Ramsey guided me through stunning Landscapes where we hiked and practiced
Qigong with the mountains as our backdrop. the desert paired with sunsets and late-night stargazing was magical.  flowing in nature was exactly what I needed to reconnect with myself and clear my mind.  it was truly a peaceful and transformative experience.

I'm so happy that I was brave enough to take time away and reflect on my life goals, practice
mindfulness, and recharge. It was pure Soul fulfilling Bliss. Now that I've been back at home even my friends and family have noticed that my spark is back. I'm going to make solo trips mandatory every year. it was the best gift I could give to myself.

I Googled wellness centers and came across booking retreats and found Camp Vortex Retreats. At first, I thought it was pricey for a 5-day retreat but I kept an open mind.  As soon realized after arrival that it was well worth the price.  If you want to feel at home and want one-on-one attention and guidance from the owner or gather with a few friends, this will be perfect.  not only is there magic in the earth here, but you will also learn how to optimize your health with Whole Foods and other healing modalities. I learned so much and the breathing and postural exercises I have incorporated into my routine alone were well worth the trip.  I highly recommend it.

The personal attention I had was life-changing. My hip has been misaligned for years and Ramsay managed to help me release a lot of the tension, Trauma, and pain that was building up. I’ve worked with many practitioners and he’s the only one that has been able to clearly explain to me what was going on with my body and how I could fix it moving forward. He makes discovering new things fun, He guides and participates in everything we do. He is an amazing instructor. I highly recommend it!

Transformational experience! I came to the desert for Ramsay's 4-day personal retreat and ended up staying for 5 days. This retreat was a breakthrough for me. The accommodations are so well-furnished, tranquil, and relaxing.

This combined with the magic of the desert and Ramsay's healing abilities gave me the insight and grounding to face my health issues and traumas. I have been fortunate to have him as a coach. I run a branding agency and often work in the wellness space. I have used him on many podcasts, live events and whenever I need him he is a trusted authority that everyone love’s. He lives and breathes his passion, you can’t help but be inspired. He is the next level.

Ramsay is the real deal! His sanctuary has been carefully prepared and allows you to escape the drains of life. I was very blessed to have had Ramsay come into my life from a mutual friend. I met him at a wellness retreat where he was teaching a large group of women Qigong. After the event, I approached him and told him of my challenges. His depth of knowledge about all things holistic has helped me heal what I thought would be a chronic condition. Ramsay is now a friend for life, as well as a healer for many of my family members and friends. Thank you for your divine service, Ramsay

HEATHER T.

I was looking for something different to get away with one-on-one coaching to help me gain some clarity and reset my life. I had never been to the desert or even done this type of retreat experience. Ramsay’s offering looked interesting. It was just amazing! Ramsay is very knowledgeable and passionate about helping people. He goes above and beyond with his method and treatments by showing you how to incorporate quick and easy movements in
your daily life that will help further your healing. Highly recommend!

JOLINE.

I was stuck in a place where I needed to step back and re-evaluate my personal and professional life.  I booked three nights and four days with Ramsay.  I looked online and read his reviews and planned my retreat.  I didn’t really know what to expect but I was blown away.  There was a lot of body and mind work.  Massages, stretching, hikes, workouts, sound, and sage grounding experience, red light sauna, contrast bath hydrotherapy, cleansing, great food, and a nutrition session.

I left feeling so much better and it is exactly what my body/ mind needed. I strongly recommend his retreat.

SUE

I can't express how much my life has transformed since I started this journey to better health. I have to say, the nutrition component of my detox experience has been an absolute game-changer. I never thought that something like this would be so achievable, but it truly is. The guidance and support I've received have been invaluable, and I can't thank you enough for helping me on this incredible journey to improved health and well-being.

GERALDINA

I was facing significant health challenges when a dear friend recommended Ramsay's services.
My transformative journey at Mystic Sky Ranch began with rejuvenating bodywork and an enchanting earthing ceremony. The soothing sounds of nature enveloped me, gently guiding me into a state of serene tranquility as my anxiety dissipated, and a profound connection with the Earth emerged.

Ramsay's profound understanding of healing and the desert landscape provided me with invaluable insights, encouraging me to embark on a profound exploration of my path to wellness. The personalized attention and compassionate care I received left me deeply appreciative of my time at the Ranch, leaving an indelible mark on my healing journey.

I am immensely grateful for Ramsay's guidance and the transformative experience that has instilled in me a newfound sense of strength and purpose. The empowering atmosphere of Mystic Sky Ranch and Ramsay's expert guidance have truly been instrumental in my healing process. My experience has enriched my understanding of holistic well-being and left me with a renewed sense of hope and resilience.

Camp Vortex is an unlimited-option amusement park for wellness, set against a stunning landscape under the loving host Ramsay. I was almost too burned out for the two-hour drive from LA to this concierge healing experience but I felt quite alright in less than a day. Desert vortex Qigong, grounding, sauna, bodywork, sound therapy, fire pit star gazing, everything heals here. On top of it, the food was healthy and delicious, the house was tastefully done and comfy. It's great to know there's this oasis for me to take a break from the day-to-day chaos and I can easily reset myself whenever needed. 

BEN

I had some things going on in my life and really needed somewhere I could stop and get in touch with myself and find direction and to make a decision. Ramsey is one of a kind, if you have the opportunity and means to see him, you will be grateful. I know what to do now and I have begun a spiritual journey that I never thought possible. The food and accommodations were world class and of course the area has its own magic.

ALISHA

My experience at Camp Vortex and with Ramsey was truly one of a kind. I was in search of a place to slow down and reconnect with myself; this is exactly what I received.

Ramsey was warm, welcoming and absolutely delightful. He planned every detail of my trip to meet my needs. He took me on some incredible hiking trails, to see some stunning sunsets and provided me with some delicious healthy food. He also guided me to reestablish the connection with my body; with gentle yoga, sauna sessions and body work.

In my short time there I felt relaxed and well cared for. It was an amazing sanctuary for my soul and I left feeling rejuvenated.

CHRISTY

Working with Ramsay Mead was a transformative experience. Mystic Sky Ranch is a magical oasis. The beautiful landscape and solace of the high desert was a perfect setting for recalibration. I came to Camp Vortex retreats with an openness for clarity and personal change. Some of the highlights were hiking in Joshua Tree practicing deeper breathwork with Ramsay and a grounding ceremony connecting back to the earth. I felt a deep sense of calm and was able to integrate and gain new understanding from the wisdom of Ramsay as a space holder and healer. I look forward to the next visit and highly recommend the solo journey to anyone needing to reset and recharge!

CLARISSA

I Came here for a 5 day solo retreat and left having gotten exactly what I needed. Life has been busy with family life and work in the past couple of years so I really needed to focus on myself and Ramsay created an amazing space for me to open up and heal. I enjoyed and got so much from the sound baths, grounding ceremonies, sauna, time in nature, the conversations and the hot tub star gazing. An amazing and very healing experience. Thank you Ramsay.
