I noticed this review email in my inbox a few days ago, not sure what words of praise to choose to convey my absolute appreciation- so I left it alone for a while. There are a few words that come to mind now.
Truth. Ancestry. Joy. Family. Stars. Deep earth. Cosmic heart. Mother and father. Brothers and sisters. True living. Garden. Ample giving. River of life. A smile on the face of light. A hug. Community of soul. – those words are a little bit to describe the feeling I got from the people who live on site and facilitate this amazing experience. The shamans, Diego, Andrea, and Samuel are exceptional masters.
The facility is amazing on every level, it is a large parcel that turned into a new earth—it’s a dream, and yet very down to earth. I think they need more pictures lol. They have private cabins, and also communal lodging. The cabins are high-end—I added a bit extra to stay in a private cabin that is totally 5 star lodging.
The ceremony is sacred and how you experience it is up to you- but the environment is nurturing and freeing.
I guess you can tell, I had a wonderful retreat. Don’t pass this one by- it is a must. I will be going there again.
