Forest Path MI
Forest Path in MI delivered an incredibly profound and beautiful experience. The love, devotion, compassion, care, and gentleness provided created such a safe sacred space to be held in. I am eternally grateful to have found community in this shared spiritual path. Although this divine work is deeply personal, the opportunity to heal in community is like nothing else. The attention to detail in the land and ceremony space was truly awing. The mastery in sacred music and harmonies was absolutely unbelievable. I’m still in awe of that mastery and the beautiful connecting element it brings to ceremony. The food. The visually stunning, delicious, nutritious food was such a gift and the women preparing it. The support in preparation and integration is very thorough and appreciated. And for all of the teachings and guidance, THANK YOU. I deeply cherish this entire experience and I’m looking forward to sitting in ceremony again and participating in other FP offerings as well. Love to all🙏🦋💖

A beautiful experience in every way
Finding my way to Casa Floresta and this Voice Medicine Retreat was truly divinely guided. I have been on my path of deep healing and reached the layer of my voice; its blocks, fears and deep desire to be heard and expressed. I was waiting for the most beautiful and supportive next step for me to explore this part of myself and this was it. The lake took me in with open arms and Casa Floresta is a dream. It is so gorgeous here and I felt taken care of in every way by our beautiful facilitators Hayley, Leti and Shahaf. They are each so special, unique and brought their own light & power ~ and together the three of them created a seamless flow facilitating with such grace and mastery. I loved the healthy, fresh food they fed us with each day, the incredible environment (so clean and comfortable, the views are spectacular, the location is gorgeous), the inspiring teachings, learning so much as we practiced harmonizing, being introduced to so many techniques and music, singing songs, and connecting with the wonderful people that came to also explore their voices. This time helped me to touch the most tender parts of myself. Weeks later that experience continues to bloom in me and my life. Unforgettable experience and I would come again and again.
Thank you so much Hayley, Leti, Shahaf and the entire staff at Casa Floresta.

Transformative Voice Medicine Retreat
This Voice Medicine Retreat was incredible! The accommodation was fabulous! I had a stunning view of San Pedro volcano. The food was delicious! I am beyond grateful for these beautiful woman – Hayley, Leticia & Shahaf. They all led this retreat with incredible knowledge of music, instruments, songs & voice. You could feel their passion for their work and their devotion in supporting women to explore & discover their own voice. This retreat helped me push my edges on so many levels regarding my voice, my own blocks and challenges and realized that when you truly let all those go – you can find that inner nudge, inner voice, calmness, creativity and confidence to sing, write and create. The activities and exercises of tuning, toning, chanting, and deep listening were extremely helpful, although at times challenging, you came out on the other side with such love, happiness & celebration. If you are looking to gift yourself this medicine (your own voice) – I highly recommend it. It transformed my view on how I look at my own voice, myself and the potential that is awaiting me on my journey. Thank you everyone who made this happen!
