Mysteries of Peru – Machu Picchu  (May 23 -June 5 2012)

Journey deep into Peru, its culture, its people and yourself.

You could be one of a very small, intimate group of people to join me for 14 days on an Inner and Outer Journey of a Lifetime, exploring Peru and the lesser traveled Lares trail to Machu Picchu.

Our Journey begins in Cusco. Once the center of the Incan Empire, Cusco is now considered by many mystics and religious figures to be a major point of spiritual energy and the epicenter for predicted events of 2012.

After exploring the city and taking time to acclimatize, we travel overland to a remote mountain village inhabited by the Q’ero people. Believed to be the last descendants of the Inca, the Q’ero have long lived in isolation, effectively maintaining many of their rituals and way of life.

Recently, access to water has become an issue in these communities. Upon our arrival to the village, we will be welcomed by the local Shaman and treated to a traditional Andean Ritual; asking permission from Pacha Mama (Mother Earth) to start construction of our water project.

4 Days later we will say goodbye to our new friends and head down the mountain, to the Sacred Valley for some well earned rest and relaxation. There we will visit ancient Inca sites, the artists village of Ollantaytambo, taste the local strawberry corn beer and take time to slow down, go inside and prepare for our trek to Machu Picchu.

Far from the over crowed routes of the Inca Trail, the “Lares” route takes us through traditional communities, lush valleys, high mountain lakes and the Lares hot springs!

Our journey culminates at our final destination – Machu Picchu. Shrouded in mystery for thousands of years… Machu Picchu is considered one of the top “must experience” wonders of the world. After a full day of exploring, we will  catch the evening train back to Cusco for our celebration dinner.

This an all inclusive, full service adventure, providing the rare opportunity to deeply connect with the indigenous people of Peru, make a difference while you are there, experience the sacredness of the land and delve into the true essence of who you are.

Local Adventures

(March 16-18) Are you ready for a deeply moving experience ?

Join us for a unique and magical desert solo experience.

Imagine if you had 48 hours in nature to connect deeply with yourself, cleanse your body and replenish your creative energies.

Benefits:

  • Cleanse your body with a fast
  • Clear your mind
  • Connect with your inner knowing
  • Break through fear
  • Access your wild side
  • Reinvigorate creative energies
  • Make new conscious friends

About the trip

This is a moderate exercise level adventure. (2 miles of hiking) We will be fasting and drinking only water for 48 hours. Each person will have their own private wilderness camp site.

Why an Insight Quest?

In our modern and hectic lifestyle it is very rare that we take the time to completely unplug from our work, and social lives. Recent research shows that one of the most effective cures to modern stress is a total technology detox. We take this one step further; add a physical detox as well and the results have been powerful.

What people are saying

Clients report that they experience a renewed sense of direction, inner peace and are often very proud of their first solo journey in the wilderness. On our most recent trip, everyone was surprised that they were not hungry, felt energized and all commented that they wanted to keep going another day! For many people this was their first time alone in nature and shared that it was a deeply moving experience.

“My husband has been energized all week since he came back from the desert.” -Jo

“It was during the desert detox that I finally chose to move my life to California & purchase my new home.” -Briggs
