Wendelin is a skilled ceremonial guide in Cristina’s lineage. She supports participants compassionately through all phases of the encounter with the sacred plants. Wendelin facilitates a strong, safe, and spacious container that is rooted in prayerful gratitude for life, warm-hearted relatedness and honoring of the indigenous origins of the tradition. Wendelin’s offering to the community is informed by three decades as a yoga teacher, yoga teacher trainer, retreat leader, and studio owner.

Join us for songs, silence and fellowship in a truly remarkable Colorado setting. La Mesa is 5o acres of fields, vineyard, orchards and woods nestled against open space with epic views of our sacred mountains. You can enjoy long strolls across the mesa while picking apples, take a refreshing dip in our pond, or meditate in the shade of our canoncito. We will take in nourishing meals, bask in supportive conversations and focus on deep rest.

The full weekend retreat is $500 plus a minimal organic food donation. There is abundant, shady camping in the nearby forest at no additional cost. We also have both private and communal lodging available. Please email contact@graciadivinachurch.org to inquire about our lodging options and prices.

Please arrive by Noon on Friday 9/5 so you have ample time for registration, orientation and pre-ceremony rest. We will be sitting in ceremony both Friday and Saturday evening. On Sunday 9/7 we will have a celebratory meal and a closing integration circle followed by a group cleanup of the communal spaces. We will adjourn by 2pm.

Are we a good fit for you?

We encourage all who are involved in these practices to check into the lineage, experience and background of your potential facilitator and staff/helpers. We’re happy to answer questions of that nature to help you make sure that we are good fit.

Orientation & Lodging Details

Orientation emails, WTB, and food and lodging information will be sent to registrants by August 15th

Please Register by August 28th

You must register before August 28th. We are rarely able to give refunds, as it is costly and time-consuming. If there is an emergent situation happening for you, consider requesting a credit toward future events. You must be screened through our admin, and also sign an online document at least one week prior to this event.

Health

Please monitor your health carefully leading up to attending events. We often have elders and those who are in delicate dances with health attending.  We ask that all attendees take extra steps to stay in good health for 2 weeks prior to the event, avoiding highly contagious situations, and stressors to mind and body.

Respecting sensitivities

Please avoid using strong scents (even organic oils) such as perfumes and Agua Florida water cologne when here at our venue. Avoid scented soaps and shampoos. We will be in a heightened state of sensitivity during our time together.

Gratitude

Thank you for your kind consideration regarding this information! We look forward to being with you in the luminous atmosphere of the supreme divine presences of the plants and songs.
