LOS ANGELES Days 1 – 2
Begin this EPIC JOURNEY upon your arrival in Los Angeles, where you’ll be picked up from the airport (or if you prefer to arrive earlier, we can arrange to meet you in LA).
You’ll be staying in a 4-star hotel situated in West Hollywood, near The Grove shopping centre, Wholefoods, CBS Studio City and Beverly Hills.
Imagine what it feels like to live the glamorous life for a couple of days…
Wholesome breakfast you can enjoy at the hotel or anywhere you like – breakfasts are on us!
As you settle in and meet each other – feel your heart warming to those you connect with. Practice communicating your wants and needs clearly with each other, so you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your time together.Each day we will meet for group sharing and teachings where you can express your needs and insights.
At our Welcome Dinner we will eat together at the amazing 100% organic plant-based Café Gratitude. The meal will set the tone of our journey, as each meal is prepared with love and supports health and sustainability for the planet.
As you step into the restaurant, choose to love your life, adore yourself, accept the world and be generous and grateful every day as you experience being provided for. Their practice of Sacred Commerce provides inspired service, honest and transparent communication, and as you eat, you get to express gratitude for the richness of your life.
Have fun and enjoy being nourished!

NEW MEXICO Days 2 – 3
Now it’s time to head off on an adventure of a lifetime as we fly to our first destination for the next week. As you step into this powerful land of Spirit, your vision quest begins.We fly west to Albuquerque where we meet with beautiful Mary-Margaret Moore who shares the life-changing teachings of Bartholomew, whom she channelled for many years.
TEACHINGS
It is my delight to introduce you to my dear friend, Mary-Margaret Moore who channelled one of my truest teachers, Bartholomew. She will be sharing her profound wisdom, life experience and teachings with us and answering questions.
“In 1995 we heard “his” last words. The final teaching was simple: If we want to discover that we are the Consciousness that “he” is and we are, just be Still. Leave thought behind. Go into the Silence of our very own Sacred Self, and there we will find all that we have been looking for. It is Who We Are and who we have always been. There cannot be any separation, except in our thoughts which never, ever, speak the Truth. In the years since we audibly heard “his” last words, my greatest delight has been in sharing the light and wisdom that has been integrated into my every day, ordinary life. It is a deeply joyful experience to find words flowing out from the silence within, and offering clarity, peace and comfort to others.”
CHACO CANYON Day 4
“To the Pueblo man it is spoken to be the cradle of civilisation and the burial place of their ancestors. To the Dinetah, it is the center of the world they evolve from. To the Hopi, it is the final destination.”~ Heritage Inspirations
Feel the “ancientness” of the land as we spend a day visiting Chaco Canyon, the heart centre of the Anasazi civilisation. This sacred spiritual ceremonial site linked outlying communities throughout New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado and Utah through its strong network of road-ways and was a thriving community from 850 A.D. to 1250 A.D. Now it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is comparable with Machu Picchu in it’s spiritual significance.
Today, many traditional elders make the pilgrimage to pay homage to these sacred ancestral homelands, to reconnect with their ancestors and to offer their prayers in ceremony. Now it is your turn to complete the wheel for your ancestors and future generations.

SEDONA EXPERIENCE Days 5 -6, 10 -14
Over this Equinox season, participate in ceremonial circles, drumming, Sweat Lodge and Sacred Pipe Ceremony with Sundancer, Medicine Man Pipe Carrier, Indigenous Yacqui Elder. Attune to hear the voice within, to use your intuition to gather personal power and tools to enhance your life.
Here in this magestic beauty and ancient culture, you will meet Crystal Skull carrier and intuitive medium, Stephanie Phelps. She will guide us to Walk the Path of the Ancient Ones. Through shamanic journeys, vision walks, and connecting with earth wisdom you will activate deep knowledge within you.
Attend 2 sessions of channeling with Bashar as he harnesses the energy of the power vortices in this life-changing environment. Maybe you’ll get a chance to ask a question.
VORTICES
There are four main Vortexes or Vortices – Bell Rock and Boynton Canyon Vortexes have the balance of both female and male energies, whilst the Airport Mesa Vortex has a masculine energy. Red Rock Crossing Cathedral Rock Vortex has a feminine energy.
The strongest power areas are revealed by the Juniper Tree as the branches twist in a spiral.
Relax and attune to the frequencies on our picnic lunches at these powerful sites, and as you do, with pure intent, there is a harmonizing effect that brings balance to yourself and the energy grid of the planet.
Participate in Sacred Ceremonies, Drumming Rituals, Cacao and Peruvian Whistle ceremonies.
SEDONA ACCOMMODATION
You’re sleeping right in the midst of the powerful vortexes and the hotel offers huge decks all around giving you 360 degree red rock views. Awesome!
The Airport Mesa Vortex is right across the street!
Enjoy the views over your delicious full hot breakfast buffet from the daily changing menu. In the evening, stroll over to the west side to watch a spectacular sunset right from the deck, perhaps with a glass of red. Gaze into the moonlit starry skies.
These are treasured memories in the making.
Grand Canyon, Arizona
GRAND CANYON Days 7 – 8
Become limitless as you allow your senses to expand and encompass All That Is. Imagine yourself out in space preparing for a moon landing as you glide over the vastness of the Grand Canyon South Rim by helicopter.
Massaw, a Hopi Katchina, is said to guard this Sacred Initiation Site for the Hopi Nation. Hopi ceremonies, pilgrimages and rituals are interwoven at specific mountain peaks, springs and sacred sites and are linked to the life essence of these ancestral lands.
Imagine spending the night at the Canyon and watching in awe at the exquisite splendour of the sun setting and rising as it spreads a palette of colour across this timeless landscape. Let your dreams teach you during your sleep in this ancient land.
HOPI LAND Days 8 – 9
We arrive in Hopi Land! ‘Hopi’ translated means ‘peaceful person‘. Let yourself immerse in this ancient culture and allow their values and teachings to rub off on you.
The Hopi nation are intensely spiritual and independent, valuing their privacy. A tightly knit tribe, held together by clan relations, they trace their ancestry through their female ancestry to a common ancestor, who is part of that clan’s creation story. Experience the privilege of going on a Hopi Prophecy tour!
Mostly farmers, agriculture forms the foundation of traditional life. There are 34 living clans residing in 12 self-governing traditional villages, home to over 14,000 of the ‘oldest native people‘ on the continent, dating back to 1100 A.D.
We spend the night in Hopi land and visit a home and share in their home-cooked Hopi meal.
MESAS
As we explore the Mesas we come to Walpi, an historic village on First Mesa. Above this Mesa are three villages famous for their handmade Hopi pottery, paintings drawings and Katsina dolls.
Second Mesa villages are known for fine Hopi weaving of traditional clothing, coiled baskets, artistic paintings and drawings, Hopi overly jewellery and Katsina dolls.
Third Mesa has the oldest settlement, the village of Old Orabi with ruins still standing. Recognized for their fine Hopi weaving of traditional clothing, wicker weaving plaques and multi-coloured yucca baskets, Hopi overlay jewellery and artistic paintings and drawings.
All these items are for sale to provide for their families and they all have ceremonial uses, as they all represent something important to the artist.
And Then…
After an incredible journey through these ancestral lands together, and then even more amazing experiences in Sedona over the next days, we give thanks with deep gratitude for our time together. For the laughter and connection, for the new understandings and heart openings, for the new tools we take home with us.
It’s time to leave the magic of Sedona, although we will now always carry this in our hearts and pass this knowledge on to future generations.
AND
We finish off this retreat with a sumptuous Farewell Dinner together in Los Angeles before heading off into your new life with your NEW YOU!
