​
What’s In a Day of Retreat?
Generally, each day includes morning practices, teaching segments, personal time on the land with Nature, exploration of landscapes, practice sessions and processing time. Evenings find us in ceremony. The specific schedule will be announced each day.

Retreat Schedule
Sessions will begin at 3pm Thursday and end at approx 1pm Sunday.  Schedule, directions, logistics and what to bring will be provided.

Retreat Location
An important and integral part of this program involves the deepening and awakening of your connections to Nature, the Spirits of the Land and the Ancient Ones who offer us great wisdom and support.  We will be gathering for the Summer and Fall retreats on private family-owned sacred land in New Mexico.  The general location of the property is near Ramah, NM which is South of Gallup and East of the Zuni Pueblo at the edge of the Ramah Navajo Reservation.  Driving time from Tucson is approx 6 hours.  Driving time from Phoenix is approx 4.5 hours.  Driving time from Albuquerque is approx 1hr45min.
While this is a somewhat remote area we will have access to all the usual amenities (ie electricity, indoor plumbing, land line etc.).  
Please note: There is NO cell phone reception, however, a land line is available for emergencies.  
Specific location information and directions will be given upon registration.  
The Winter retreat will be held in Southern Arizona.  Specific location TBD.


Meals
We will prepare meals together, family-style, and enjoy the sacredness of sharing food together.  Any dietary restrictions, needs or preferences will be taken into consideration when creating the menu for the weekend.  Please be sure to indicate these on the registration form!  We will send you the full menu plan in advance.  An additional $60 (per retreat) will be expected for contribution to meal costs. 

What's Included In Between Retreats?
  • Monthly one-on-one check-in Shamanic Guidance Phone Sessions (Shamanic GPS!).
(On these one-hour private phone calls, you and I will have an opportunity to discuss anything and everything related to your apprenticeship... tracking and guiding your journey through this unfolding experience.  One call per month is included and required as part of the apprenticeship program.  Additional calls may be available if needed.)
  • Monthly online live journeys
  • Secret Facebook sacred group container

Tuition
Full tuition for this apprenticeship program is $1440.  Tuition includes 3 retreats, monthly Shamanic GPS, monthly online journeys, and ongoing individual and group support.  Camping on the land in NM is also included.  Additional costs include indoor lodging (LIMITED if desired, $20/night) and meal contribution of $60 per retreat.  A non-refundable deposit of $320 will hold your space in the apprenticeship program.

Payment Options
  • Tuition in Full ($1440)
  • 3 Installments ($480 each)

​Withdrawal and tuition refunds will be determined on a case-by-case basis dependent on the circumstances and timing.
​

Expectations:
You should be comfortable and adept in your journeying skills, personally or through training. My expectation is that you have done a good deal of your own personal healing work, are emotionally mature, respectful, stable, can work well with others and you have a deep desire to be of service.

While this program does not require that you be extremely physically fit, it does require that you are mobile, agile and in a relative state of good health. Many hours will be spent outdoors sitting, standing, hiking or lying on the earth, in water or in other unexpected places.  A willingness and ability to participate in these activities is important!
