This transformational journey is a living book in which we will experience miracles in the moment and co-create the highest experiences with divine energies. Costa Rica is a gateway to greater personal rejuvenation for the mind body and soul. It is a unique healing land of spectacular natural beauty, unlimited life force and pure pranic energy, which offers a cornucopia of profound spiritual experiences.
As a circle of light of kindred souls we will open ourselves to receive the gifts of nature and activate our cellular wisdom and knowledge. We will realize our highest potential through discovery, soul remembrance, meditations, ceremonies, play, joy and sacred moments of contemplation. Come join us!
You are about to embark upon an amazing journey. A portal through time and space Within the Spirit of Nature. We will immerse ourselves in nurturing sacred places where the energies of the mountains, waterfalls, volcanoes, rain forest and ocean provide alchemical transformation into greater dimensions of ourselves. We will explore Nature, the Great Mother beckoning us home, teaching us about the laws of nature, ancient wisdom, beauty, natural vitality, abundance, cooperation and our true potential. During this journey and at the Full moon we will integrate powerful cosmic energies with our stellar origins and transmit our goodwill to humanity. We will tap into our creative life force for greater empowerment and conscious mastery.
Gaia, as the Earth was called in ancient times, is a living organism composed of a dynamic system of energetic lines and vortices. This global energy grid links major centers all over the world. These sacred places act as antennas for cosmic and terrestrial energies and are a catalyst for the transformational process. Within the landscape of Costa Rica are energetic centers that are aligned with our own body chakras. We will experience them on a deep cellular level awakening our DNA and our true nature.
This journey offers the best of Costa Rica through many unique experiences. Exciting new archaeological discoveries are being made in Costa Rica. We have the opportunity to be with the leading researcher on our visit to Guayabo/Catie. We also will have a special gathering with May East from Findhorn. She will share her expertise on Eco Villages and sustainable environment. We have arranged for a visit to the Cano Island Biological Reserve to see the mysterious " stone spheres" . Janine will be offering yoga sessions and profound energy work and I will be sharing more on world grids and sacred sites.
A little about Costa Rica. It is a stable prosperous peaceful nation where 25% of its land is devoted to national parks. It is known worldwide for eco tourism, unspoiled beaches, majestic mountains, secret waterfalls, playful dolphins and scarlet sunsets.
The " stone spheres" of Costa Rica are one of the strangest mysteries in archaeology. Since 1930, hundreds of stone balls ranging from a few inches to nine feet in diameter and weighing over 30 tons have been found. These enigmatic objects are monolithic sculptures made by ancient man by unknown means. In analyzing the positions of the spheres, they found many were arranged in a triangular groupings oriented to the magnetic north pole and where aligned to global sites like Easter Island, Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids. These skill sculptors created perfectly shaped spheres showing a high degree of mathematical ability as wall as advanced knowledge of stone carving. Ivar Zapp author of Atlantis in America feels after numerous years of study that the spheres represent the evidence of a pre-flood navigational culture that existed here thousands of years ago. We will explore this enigma.

practitioner. She has been guiding and teaching through inner body mind
landscape via yoga and facilitating her own designed Soul Surrender therapy
