AWAKEN THE GREAT MOTHER WITHIN
A Journey of Creative Transformation for WomenJoin us on an adventure to one of the great cradles of creativity, Oaxaca, Mexico, where artists of life have been honoring the Sacred Mother for thousands of years and awakening her reflection within their own hearts through creative expression.
We will climb the steps of the sacred sites and pyramids of Monte Albán and Mitla to experience initiations, ceremonies and a vortex of transformation; drink in the wisdom of the Tule Tree; soak in the healing mineral baths at the Hierve el Agua Petrified Waterfalls; wander the streets, churches and art galleries of Oaxaca City and be inspired by the magic of the weavers in Teotitlaán del Valle. We will embrace these artists of life. The mother patronesses of the land are everywhere as La Virgen de Guadalupe and La Virgen de Juquila.
Our home in Oaxaca will be at Casa de las Bugambilias, voted one of the top B&Bs in the historic centro of Oaxaca. Relax and revive in luxurious rooms filled with the vibrant colors and fabrics reflecting the heart and soul of Mexico. Wake each morning to a decadent, delicious and healthy breakfast prepared with loving care. The owners are the Cabreras family, who share their home and their traditions generously, providing visitors with a unique vision of the culture of Mexico through its art and food.
An indigenous healer will guide each of us individually through a Temazcal bath to purify our mind, body, and spirit in an extraordinary garden setting. Ancient ceremonies combine a cleansing sweat with herbs and flowers. Music and a soothing massage will renew and energize us. We will experience traditional indigenous culture in an extraordinary manner and feast on the sights, sounds, tastes and experiences of this cradle of creativity.
Stephanie Urbina Jones will lead us on a spiritual journey in the way of the Toltec Shamanic Breathwork – using the rhythms of drums, rattles, and music and the breath – in this powerful environment. Much like traveling to sacred places, this practice can be used to enter altered states of consciousness. We will also experience no-stress painting and Intentional Creativity with Emily K. Grieves and Intuitive Writing with Maia Williams.
Last Call! The journey is limited to 12 participants.
