This Retreat is literally not for everybody because we only bring a small group. We limit the group to 12-15 participants and 3-4 retreat team members. There are many formal teaching sessions, but lots of informal teaching and lots of care.
Also, the retreat is intense. By far, this is the most intense offering Maria does. Traveling in Sedona is always intense, to begin with, and in our case, it’s more intense because of the spiritual dimension. We follow a retreat discipline, some of the programs are intense, expect to do deep work, and there is a lot of practice. Our awareness and sensitivity are heightened and everyone in the group is transforming.
More so than in any of her other offerings, there is a deep surrender required for this retreat. We have an application process to help you get clear about the requirements and your readiness to join the retreat. Some people come again and again. Some people come just once but their life is never the same. For sure, if you are a sādhaka, a spiritual aspirant, the retreat is a deep initiation into the spiritual land where so many mystical traditions were born.

What is the cancellation policy for this trip?Due to the exclusive offering of retreats and trainings to Maria's mail list and the lead time to fill your spot - It makes it difficult for us to react to last-minute cancellations after the eblast has been sent out. Because of this, we must enforce a FIRM cancellation policy. Terms: 👉 If you need to cancel more than 30 days before the retreat/trainings & programs, there will be a $500 processing fee (your deposit), and the remaining balance will be refunded to your card. 👉 If you need to cancel 15-30 days before the start of the retreat or trainings, you will receive a 50% refund of the full cost of your spot. 👉 If you need to cancel 0-14 days before the start of the retreat or trainings or programs, you will receive no refunds. In addition, in the event of fires in Sedona or COVID-19, we may need to reschedule this retreat. If so, we will refund you for your full amount minus any losses we may incur due to unforeseen circumstances that are out of our control. It is in our best interest to refund you in this type of situation. We cannot be responsible for any losses with airfare, transportation, or any other additional costs incurred during the planning of your trip. There are no exceptions with our cancellation policy due to the contractual commitments we have with our vendors. Unfortunately, we are not able to credit toward future offerings or transfer amounts toward online classes. We appreciate your understanding of our cancellation policies Please read the rest of our retreat policies, linked here
