Belize & the Southern Yucatan Hidden Ruins

Led by Certified Toltec Teachers
Sheri Rosenthal & Rita Rivera
Explore the Hidden Ruins of the Southern Yucatan
March 2nd-8th, 2005
FINISHED
Led by Sheri Rosenthal, DPM
Join us for an amazing adventure to the remote jungles of the south-eastern aspect of the Mexican Yucatan. We explore the newly opened and recently uncovered ruins in this mysterious part of the Yucatan. It is not unusual to spot howler and spider monkeys here, or large cats! Visitors to this area of the jungle are far and few and we will have the opportunity to explore places that are still lost in time as this area is still pristine. It is typical for only a handful of people to visit this ruins in a day and we have the freedom to explore the area without seeing another soul!
During this journey we create the opportunity for personal transformation through beautiful ceremony and ritual. The energy of these powerful ruins assists us in revealing the truth of who we really are. Journeying inward, we illuminate the world we create from the beliefs in our own minds. Engaging the Toltec practices of Dreaming and Mastery of Awareness training, we learn to recover our personal power and ability to love unconditionally. Exploring the undiscovered places in the jungle of our own minds allows us to live our truth and make our life choices with clarity and grace. There will be the opportunity to spend one night on the grounds of the ruins for a very powerful all night "Mitote" dreaming ceremony.
Registration is limited to 30 persons due to the remote location and limited lodging facilities.
