Who should join us?

All women who are willing to heal low self-esteem, self-image, behaviors such as stress or comfort eating, weight concerns, relationship issues, communication skills, childhood abuse, anxiety, fears or self-doubt. Dr. Fran and Dr. Harmon will facilitate personal as well as group work driving you to the edge and back with love and encouragement.

Reaching your authentic self you will not discover who you are, but remember who you are…

Looking not only at the spiritual but Dr. Fran will also address physical reasons why women suffer with hormonal imbalances, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and thyroid issues. There will be an overview of all mental, emotional and physical aspects: the wholeness of you…mind, body and spirit. Both Dr. Carns and Dr. Harmon, known as Elders, will guide you each day on mountain hikes while working on the acceptance of all your experiences that have brought you to a place of guilt, anger, joy, or pain. This is known as good medicine and bad medicine and the adult behaviors, which may be expressing unresolved issues in many unhealthy ways. Healing the wounds caused by others and reinforced through life by one’s own self-doubt, most have held on to truths that are not their own.

Under the backdrop of the clear blue Colorado sky, you will greet the Four Directions, Mother Earth and Father Sky. The clean air, breath-taking landscape, spirit rocks and delectably healthy foods crafted from pure love to support you in conquering your hurdles. Intense mountain hikes challenge your physical body while providing the framework for peaceful in-depth soul searching, an opportunity to awaken the child within and acceptance of all experiences as they unfold. Getting to the root of your issues and growing from this new consciousness among compassionate friends and devoted Elders is what this retreat is based on. It is not about learning new things but “awakening” to that which your heart has always known but may have forgotten. It is about taking hatchet to those things that no longer serve the soul’s purpose and cutting loose any baggage inhabiting you from achieving your greatest potential.

This retreat is a powerful and life-altering experience …
Now is the time to awaken to your own truth …

There is something special that happens when people gather together and create group cohesion through mindful meditation. When we quiet our minds and listen with an open heart, we can begin to sense what is hidden behind the veil of perception. Collectively we become aware of a sense of wellness, peace, and connectedness. When the veil is lifted we are capable of knowing our inner truths and are reminded of our purpose. By expanding the mind to experience the truth that is locked away within each of us, we can change the condition of human kind. We can hold a vision for humanity where we all know how to love one another unconditionally. As we begin to see that we are always connected, we realized that we are not alone when we feel lost or sad or afraid. By gathering together with our collective intention focused on love, harmony, peace, and well-being, we can influence our communities for the better. Together we can create a safe space where each of us can nurture our gifts and develop the courage to share these gifts with others.

Suzanne Tuttle

Suzanne Tuttle will also like to share her gifts with you. She has a unique way of guiding group meditations through varied vocal resonance techniques. Suzanne uses her voice to move energy and influence emotional states, as the sound waves help facilitate shifts in the consciousness. She describes her experience, “I allow my ego, or sense of individual self, to step aside while I vocalize and intone sound waves that resonate with my heart. This practice of mindful vocalization is an important way for me to create harmony between my inner-self and my outer-expression.”
