Featured Retreat

Guatemala Spriitual Retreat
Guatemala Spiritual Retreat

Join Brazilian healer, Edemir Rossi, for an extraordinary week of transforming ourselves into the spiritual warriors we were meant to be. In today's "nothing-new-under-the-sun-kind-of-world," you'll be transported to the rare, visionary world of Edemir and enjoy a unique opportunity to learn with other like-minded seekers.

The Villa Sumaya hotel, where the retreat will be held, is seductively situated on the picturesque shores of Lake Atitlan (4500 ft above sea level.) With an uninterrupted vista punctuated only by a skyline of three perfect volcanoes, Villa Sumaya is the ideal destination of rest, reflection and natural beauty. An unpretentious, thatched-roofed complex boasts a lakefront location, spectacular views, spacious gardens, a cascading waterfall, a hot tub, a sauna, and outdoor pergolas in a natural, beautiful setting. For pictures of the retreat facility, please see their website at: www.villasumaya.com.

During the week, we will be doing transformational work with Edemir and deepen our mediation practice. Yoga, massages and other spa activities will be available. Excursions and activities that will be available to you include:

  • A demonstration of the ancient Mayan art of weaving.
  • A fire ceremony with traditional Mayan shaman using herbs, chocolate, colored candles, lemons, eggs, and copal (tree resin.)
  • A boat trip and historical tour of the village of Santiago by a Mayan guide in full traditional dress, concluding with a visit to a home where we will see the inner working of a traditional Mayan household.
  • A healing experience at the thermal hot springs and a visit to San Antonio and Santa Catarina, two traditional villages with indigenous populations that still dress in native styles.
  • A recognized authority on Mayan culture will teach us about Mayan mysticism, the meaning of the Mayan Calendar and the principle archetypes of the Mayan religion, society and culture.

Join Brazilian healer, Edemir Rossi, for the adventure of a lifetime, taking us to one of the seven wonders of the world...sacred, mystical, and mysterious Manchu Picchu.

Visiting the heart of the Inca Empire, we will enjoy stunning views of the Andes with amazing heights and landscapes. Machu Picchu, which rises to an altitude of 7,900 feet above sea level, is located in a lush jungle. This Lost City of the Incas is one of the most famous examples of Inca architecture and is believed to have been built in the mid-15th century by Inca Pachacutec. Lost in history, hidden from the conquistadors, Machu Picchu was not discovered until 1911 by the American explorer, Hiram Bingham. It is a sacred place of unforgettable sunrises and beautiful moonlit nights.

We will also visit Cusco, the oldest city in the western hemisphere, charming, pleasant and a fascinating mix of Inca and Colonial architecture and culture. Horseback riding will be an option for those who want to have a more adventurous tour of the terraces of Moray. We will visit Lake Titicaca in the southern highlands, on the border between Peru and Bolivia. It is the largest lake in South America, and the largest lake in the world above 6,500 feet. At this altitude, the lake shines an iridescent blue through the clear sunlight. This is home to the Uros people, who live a lifestyle built upon the totora reeds that grow in the shallows of the lake.

All the while, we will be doing transformational work with Edemir and having the opportunity to deepen our meditation practice in a series of holy locations. Experience the meeting of the shamans, as Edemir and Puma, a renowned Q'ero shaman, work together to introduce us to the healing gifts of the apu (the mountain spirits) of Peru. Puma will also guide us through Machu Picchu. This will allow us to learn of things that are not in the guide books – what he has learned through Spirit about this wondrous and holy place.


Cost: $2450

The fee includes: registration, lodging, most meals, guides, ground transportation, and train. Horse back riding is additional. Tips and airfare are additional. We will fly from the United States to Cusco, Peru (via Lima) and return from Juliaca, Peru (via Lima).

Full payment is due by January 5th.
Three installments are welcome and should be received as follows:
January 15th - $1000
February 15th - $1000
March 15th - $450
Single Supplement - $800
