Day 4
Thursday October 7th, seven sacred pools of O'hoe Gulch
We begin our day with our yoga session, supporting us in continuing to awaken the flow and grace of the feminine spirit within, balancing
and enriching the masculine. Integrating mind, body, breath and nature, we steep in the flow of movement guided by our yoga instructor.
After our locally grown organic breakfast we will venture off to the seven sacred pools of O'hoe Gulch. We will enjoy a journey into the pools
exploring the feminine aspect of water and its healing and restorative qualities. We will also spend some time exploring the history and
myths of Hawaii, in which the islands are rich. We will discover the Goddess in all the richness of the island as she opens us deeper to
discover our true nature and true Source.
The feminine face of our Higher Source has been buried for thousands of years and many of us, men and women, can often experience an
aversion to the concept of the Goddess. In many ways it has assumed a certain image and can often appear to be exclusive to women.
We will explore the Goddess in her rightful state as an aspect of all of life, from which all of life emerges -- and find ways in which this
concept enriches us individually and collectively, as both men and women. As we explore the feminine we, uncover the divine aspect of our
masculine nature and the ways in which our feminine nature enriches and enlivens all aspect of the masculine -- the great dance of the
Shiva and the Shakti, within all of us.
Our evening will take us deeper into the wealth of Hawaiian culture exploring and experiencing the Hula dance and the accompaniment of
Ukulele guitar. A rich evening of organic local foods followed by the Polynesian art and practice of Hula, discovering ways in which Hula is
beyond a beautiful dance to witness -- a cultural art and a spiritual practice which relays history, customs, and ceremony. In 1874 King
Kalakaua stated, "Hula is the language of the heart and therefore the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people."

We will begin the day immersing ourselves in the riches of Hawaii supporting us in moving out of our dominant masculine
culture and lives into a more balanced state of being -- enriching our feminine energy as both men and women. What a better
way to do that then through the practice of yoga surrounded by the beauty of Maui's landscape. Erin Lindbergh, C.Y.T., local
yoga instructor of Inner Landscape Yoga - a fluid sequence that cultivates balance, flexibility, and awareness. Erin will lead us
in a sequence of movements that support us in dropping deeper into a state of rest and ease, moving into presence and joy.

and/or lounge along the beach (packed lunch provided).
We will then travel further up the road of Hana enjoying the vistas and waterfalls with local vendors who share their native arts,
crafts and jewelry, connecting with the land and its rich culture. We will visit Laulima Farms, a fun organic farm whose entire
operation is run through natural sustainable systems, honoring Mother Earth with innovative ways to live. Enjoy wonderful
treats and have fun creating your own smoothly riding the bike generated blender.

Day 3
Wednesday October 6th Bamboo Forrest of Haleakala National Park
An early start after enjoying our nourishing organic breakfast we head out to Maui's rich bamboo forest.
About 2 miles through the park, you will be led through a sacred journey to the bamboo forest that ends at a breathtaking
400 foot waterfall. Nature's elements are always teaching us, most of us live in a city, and life is at a constant go. We have
little opportunity to steep in nature and discover its many mysteries and teachings. Eleonore will guide us through a journey
that will allow us to discard what blocks us for our natural ability to commune with and communicate with the devas, nature
spirits and light beings that inhabit all of nature. Receive guidance for your particular path and journey, clear blocks to your
essence, and receive the gifts of Nature. Once at our destination we will continue deepening in the richness of the divine
feminine, nourishing in stillness soaking in rich chi at the top of the trail. Reiki swaps will be enjoyed for those that feel
inspired.
We will enjoy our lunch and then head back down for an afternoon at Hamoa Beach. We will return to our retreat center for
dinner, group shares, Reiki and evening meditation.
