Peruvian Adventure-Retreat

February 16-22 2025

 
 

Become the holy Mountain

We invite you to join us for 7 days and 6 nights in the sacred valley of Peru where we will explore “off the beaten track”. This is an opportunity to tune oneself with mindfulness practices, introspective prompts, fresh breaths in nature and time in cultural vibrancy. Join hosts Peter Barley and Alexandra Martin for a safe exploration into metaphor and real wonders of the world. Together we will nourish ourselves with fresh food, hot springs, yoga practices, community, and stepping into the unknown.

Welcome new and old friends to this years offering! We rejoice in another intentional gathering in the spirit of adventure in the sacred Valley of Peru! Oh so close to Machu Picchu, we will share the hidden wonders of temples ruins, culture, and pristine mountains high in the majestic Andes. Our intimate group will find meaning and belonging away from home. This 6 night retreat includes accommodation, airport transfer, breakfast and dinner, all workshops, and a gift. 

This retreat is for those who choose to step into the power of this gift of life.  With the help of hummingbirds, waterfalls, the aromatics of fresh Andes  mint “muná”, brilliant stars and wild mountain peaks we will realign ourselves.

3 Nights in the forest in solitude, 2 days of council.

 

August 1-5

This is a fast from what you feel you need space from, a fast for vision. This could be a fast from food, technology, sex, writing, or any form of distraction.

When the world is so busy, our minds so rampant and everyone has something to say...

Come to this place, where the ramps are beginning to wake, where the birds are guiding us deeper into the forest and the landscape awakens the wild.

Come to the council, to sit on rich earth and unfold in a circle of mirrors...

Find a spot on earth to pour yourself into, to empty, to listen...

Join us on a 3 day fast in the lush Catskills Mountains.
We will meet at a base camp on the first day to review practical information, unpack why we have come and to discuss the meaning of the four shields. This will be the time for intention setting, mirroring and finding "spots".
Days 2, 3, 4 Solo Fast
Day 5 Breaking fast (meal will be provided)- Integration and story telling

This fast is open to all who feel called to go to the threshold, to dive deeper into self awareness and to open the side walls of perception to receive what has always been.

Cost includes guided facilitation, breaking fast meal and support post-fast as needed.

Why pay someone to not eat? There is great power in sharing this experience with others, to be understood and to be held through such intense growth. This experience is priceless and coming together with intention in council and receive practical guidance is rich!

In my personal experience...
I am much more likely to complete a full fast if I know that I am accountable to a broader sense of community. I find that speaking my intentions aloud into the fire opens into the deepest journey.

$333 (this price is a special offer for the times, in the future this offering is a higher cost)
Payment plan available
*Limited to 4 people

Interested? Please write a short letter as to why you want to embark on this journey. What is happening in your life? What do you want to shift? Who is coming?
