2:00-5:00 Insight Into Self and Six Essential Life Skills for Family
During this session we explore a deep understanding of the human spirit and the ego mind, and tools for accessing our authentic essence, inner wisdom and sense of self-esteem. It seems that sense self-esteem diminishes over time such that by the time we are young adults many of us are essentially crippled by our negative self-talk, lack of confidence and the unconscious manipulative behaviors that ensue. This session will deepen your understanding and compassion for the human experience, provide a clear understanding of the ego’s misguided attempts to protect us and teach you how to turn your self-esteem around. This session will both deepen your understanding of yourself, and anyone else you are in relationship with. This will begin-or strengthen- the journey of self-love and authenticity, which is the first ingredient to a harmonious, sustainable relationship. You will be introduced to the six Essential Skills and practice them on a Labyrinth Walk for Self-Discovery and Self- Mastery.
Day Three
8:00-9:30 Body-Mind-Spirit Yoga for both for Family
Tune into your breath and bodily awareness as you are guided through the ancient healing poses of yoga. Whether you’ve practiced for 30 years or never done yoga in your life, and whether you are seeking a challenge or prefer a gentle restorative session, classes are tailored to suit your individual needs. The use of props, adjustments and modifications of poses are incorporated as needed to optimize your experience of yoga, or complete union with your highest Self.
10:00-11:30 Deep into the Labyrinth for Family
While many understand the labyrinth as a walking mediation, the labyrinth is actually a rich field of metaphor for deeply understanding ourselves. It offers a mirror into which we can see ourselves and a blue-print for understanding the human spirit. Through a mix of information, a deepening perspective, the labyrinth walk and journaling processes, this promises to be a powerful experience.
12:30-2:00 Heart Path Meditation for Family
Meditation is not a way of making the mind quiet, it is a way of entering the quiet that is already there. In this session, you will learn, easy to understand techniques that assist you in accessing your inner wisdom, intuition, and creativity. This ability allows you to make better choices, access peace and strength even in the midst of chaos, and align with your authenticity.
2:30-4:30 • Clarity Coaching or Relationship with Self for the Family
Retreats are often sought at times of transition while seeking clarity, this session assists in making decisions and mapping out the next steps of your spiritual journey so that you leave equipped with a practice you can implement daily. Through guided imagery and life coaching, you will be guided through a deep process of self-discovery and offered additional tools for self-healing and decision making. You will depart your session with a deeper sense of clarity and the ability to apply that clarity to any circumstances that come up.
4:30-6:30 Emotional Freedom for Family

Haleakala stands 10,000 feet high in the midst of the Pacific Ocean offering unbeatable vistas and a haunting silence that stirs your soul. Pele, Hawaii’s Fire Goddess and the one responsible for the creation of the islands through her volcanic activity, is honored atop Haleakala, the house of the sun and a dormant volcano.
