A JOURNEY TO YOURSELF

Sacred Journey Retreat for Women
in Tepotzlan, Mexico July 20-26

Imagine escaping to Mexico, breathing in the tropical air, listening to the steady lull of waves, taking in the colorful culture. Now imagine escaping and coming back with a regenerated sense of self. Elaine Dodson Roth, Laura Curnutt Santana, and special guest leader, Dr. Beverly Nelson will lead a retreat high in the Sierra Madre Mountains at the magical power site, Tepotzlán, Mexico that aims to do just that.

In keeping with the journey’s purpose of renewed spirits and growth, participants will walk in the footsteps of the Aztec Legend Quetzacoatl, who embodies the energies of regeneration and transformation. Guests stay at a mountaintop hacienda setting with breathtaking vistas, beautiful ambiance, clean water, and healthy vegetarian food.

The leaders present a number of activities to ensure your personal growth. Laura Santana teaches her Metaphors of Movement Mind/Body Classes, encompassing Yoga, Dance, Aerobics and Movement. Dr. Beverly Nelson, nationally known Psychologist and Retreat Leader, will lead a walk in the sacred mountains. And Leslie Pascoe, bilingual tour guide, will climb with you to an ancient pyramid, where he will share spiritual stories of this special area.
