Happy New Year!
We hope everyone enjoyed a blessed and wonderful holiday and that 2009 is starting off well for all. We are certainly looking forward to a prosperous and joyful year. Many have said that 2009 will be a year of great change and we sure are ready for a positive shift to occur around the world bringing many amazing new gifts!
To help everyone understand these shifts we are experiencing now and help you prepare for this change, we have two fantastic new additions to our 2009 line-up...
I was so overwhelmed by my experience at the Centre of the Conscious Dream in the desert of San Luis Potosí, Mexico with teachers, Daniel Stone and Arbolita Pashak last year, that we decided to share their teachings with you all as well. My journey in the desert was such a powerful one, with an abundance of lessons learned, enlightening moments, and so many positive personal changes in my own life. I was challenged, inspired, captivated and transformed, and best of all, I created special bonds and friendships with so many wonderful people from all around the world and am now part of a very cherished global community of kindred spirits. We are so pleased to now be able to offer these courses to you all and we invite you to experience your own evolution and transformation on their upcoming Spring course, Sacred Mexican Plants and the Crystalline Seed, April 4 - 18, 2009.
Helen also relished her return to the Maya Lands on our 2008 Maya Sacred Path to 2012 journey, Return to the Sacred Path of the Sun, with teachers Miguel Angel Vergara Calleros and Dr. Richard Jelusich. It's always such a pleasure for her to journey to these magical places to explore the sacred sites, immerse herself in the ever present energies and absorb the wisdom shared by the ancients and our teachers. To share in some of her most cherished moments from last year's journey, please sit back and enjoy our 10 minute slide show online. We'd also like to send out a big THANK YOU to all those who shared their photos with us so that we could give all our readers a bit of a glimpse of this incredible experience. We really do appreciate it! With each year, the community we have created grows larger and these journeys really become one big family trip. We would like to welcome you to this family as well and invite you to join us on our Maya Sacred Path to 2012 journey, Awaken the Maya Spirit Within, December 3 - 12, 2009. This year we travel through the beautiful states of Tabasco & Chiapas to awaken the Maya Spirit within ourselves by immersing ourselves in the grandeur of Mother Nature, by performing rituals and ceremonies in honour of our Divine Mother, Ixchel, and by exploring the beautiful art and culture of the ancient Maya as well as the Maya of today.
Richard Jelusich has kindly offered a SPECIAL GIFT for anyone who registers for this journey by March 15th, 2009. The gift would be 2 of his books, Eye of the Lotus: Psychology of the Chakras and I Can Relate: How We Intuitively Choose the People in Our Lives. Books are signed copies and shipped to you directly. OR Take advantage of a half hour private spiritual counselling session with Richard in person or by phone. Sessions can include dominant chakra, life challenges and attributes, past life information, and more and includes a CD of your session, mailed to you at no charge.

NEW!
Mexico - Maya Sacred Path to 2012 - Awaken the Maya Spirit Within
December 3 - 12 , 2009
 Journey with us and awaken the Maya Spirit within you on our 2009 Maya Sacred Path to 2012 program. This year we travel through the beautiful states of Tabasco and Chiapas, welcomed by the Maya Teachers of Light who invite us to awaken the Maya Spirit within. Immersing ourselves in Mother Nature’s grandeur, we connect with the Divine Mother who has called us to once again perform her Sacred Rituals in harmony. At the Maya’s sacred ceremonial centres, we help open the spiritual gateways to all those who wish to return to the Mayan consciousness of love and wisdom. Mayan prophecies foretell that at the end of the Mayan Calendar, all humankind will return to the land of the Maya to understand the Great Maya Spirit which lies within all of us. Together we will awaken the Serpent of Wisdom within, linking us to the knowledge of the stars and the blessing forces of our Divine Mother, Ixchel, so that we may see the beauty of life and the sacredness of every being in the universe. Combining our visits to the sacred sites with traditional Mayan ceremonies, we will be led by Miguel Angel Vergara Calleros who will share his informative teachings of the Maya Wisdom and Cosmology. We will also have three lectures with Dr. Richard Jelusich to help us understand our connection to the Maya: Past Life Connection and Future Vision, The Maya Cosmology of Evolution, Atlantis and Ancient Races, and Mayan Cosmology and the Energy Grid of the Galactic Centre-Solar System-Pleiadian Axis of Consciousness.

Yoga Tours and Retreats
NEW - ONLY 4 SPACES LEFT!
Costa Rica - El Espiritu del Mar - A Yoga and Kayak Adventure in Costa Rica
March 14 - 22 , 2009
 Join Bruce Smith and Laurice Nemetz on an exciting Yoga and Kayak Adventure in Costa Rica. Imagine paddling in crystal clear water, snorkelling just off a white-sand beach, and catching a glimpse of sea turtles, laughing at playful monkeys and gliding right by huge pelicans, manta rays, dolphins, and egrets who will accompany you on this warm-water adventure. Kayaking in the clear waters of the Pacific Ocean promotes a sense of peace and well-being, both physical and spiritual, while the practice of yoga offers many benefits, from increased flexibility and strength to a deeper sense of connection with the world around us. It is therefore, a natural fit to combine sea kayaking with yoga.
Wisdom Teachings
NEW!
Mexico - Centre of the Conscious Dream - Sacred Mexican Plants and the Crystalline Seed
April 4 - 18, 2009
The Centre of the Conscious Dream grew out of the Shamanic School of Dreaming, which was founded in 1995 in England by Daniel Stone. In 2000, work began on a physical centre in the state of San Luis Potosí, Mexico, on a site that is towards the end of the 300km ancient pilgrimage route called the “Huiricuta”. The centre is situated near a sacred mountain, which is, in many traditional myths, a place where the sun first rose. It is an extraordinary multi-dimensional field of energy, which drew or “called” him to build his centre here. In the April course we open to beings and energies of healing and transformation: breath, the four elements, plants, trees, rocks, crystal, colours, the planet earth, stars, and the universe. The focus is to learn how to channel the energies of different levels or vibrations that come from these sources. We are learning how to open the heart and keep the heart open in order to channel the unconditional love in the universe. We learn about the use of medicinal plants and open to these plants as teachers of consciousness. We will be working with the plants in a very practical way – learning to identify them, to make oils and creams, as well as work with them through the conscious breath and ceremony. We are looking for the origin, the root of the healing. The origin comes from various intents, and we bring together those intents in the seed of healing, the seed of the plant, of crystal, of the star – the seed of healing. We plant the seed in the sun, the stars, the air, in water, in earth, and also in movement, sound, vibrations, colour, magic, creativity and ceremony. The course is suitable for anyone on the path of self-healing and healing others; for those who are interested in going beyond techniques.
AWAKEN YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS!
Mexico - Maya Cosmic University
New Courses Coming Soon
 The Maya Cosmic University is in Mérida, Mexico. Courses offered teach the Maya Cosmovision, the Maya connection
with Atlantis, the Mayan Calendars and Prophecies, the Sacred Ceremonies and Rituals of the ancient Maya, the Maya Goddesses and the rise of the Sacred Feminine, and more. Our mission is to share the sacred Maya teachings through the study of their science, art, philosophy, and religion, as it is found in the ceremonies, rituals, mantras, sacred books, pyramids, temples, stelae, pottery, paintings, sculptures and oral traditions that are available to us today. Each one is a unique masterpiece that helps us transcend from the physical/material level and rise to the level of the soul and spirit. In our programs we derive our information directly from the source to find the essence of the Maya knowledge once more. Our goal is to share the message of light from the Maya teachers who are guiding us to the sac-be of the stars, linking us with the sun and the moon. These teachings will help you to deepen your awareness and awaken your consciousness.
