Dear Sunshine Paradise Retreat Community,
It is with a heavy heart that we share the tragic news of the devastating fires that have swept through Pacific Palisades, Malibu Beach, Topanga Canyon, Altadena, and more of California. The destruction has been immense—thousands of homes lost, acres of land burned beyond recognition, and entire communities left in ruins. The magnitude of this disaster is truly heartbreaking, and our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected.
Sunshine Paradise Retreat has always been a sanctuary for healing, relaxation, and transformation. However, in the wake of these fires, we must announce that our Malibu Beach, Topanga Canyon, and Laguna Beach locations are now closed until further notice. At this time, we face deep uncertainty about whether we will ever return to these areas for future retreats. The loss is profound, and the path forward remains unclear.
This is a time of sorrow and uncertainty, not just for us but for all who have been directly impacted. We stand in solidarity with those who have lost their homes, businesses, and loved ones. We are praying for relief, healing, and strength for everyone suffering in the wake of this disaster.
