Spirit is with us always, yet sometimes we have to leave before we can return home.
This program is sponsored by Molly, Sarah and Prue, who invite you to join them for an adventure of the soul in one of the loveliest places on earth. The Guaria de Osa Peninsula on the Pacific ocean is rich with breath taking, breath giving rainforests and wild beaches, near active volcanoes. In this verdant aliveness we will embrace our connections with ourselves, each other, and the earth. Deep Story, soul song, mindfulness meditation, movement, bone humming, and energetic entrainment will expand our personal stories and deepen our work as peacemakers and healers. Sacred geometry, brain/mind resonance, and the nurture of nature will alternate with singing, sounding, movement, play, poetry, art, meditation, and private time.
Costa Rica, the only country in the Americas without a standing army, has been a model for Peace for decades. The National Geographic called the Osa Peninsula “the Little Amazon of Costa Rica…the most biologically intense place on earth.” We’ll visit rainforest preserves, play on the Pacific beaches, work with visionary artist don Pablo Amaringo, and you can see more at www.guaria.com. The fee, without transportation, is $1350. Please join us.
