On your journey to the “Grand Canyon of the East”, you will experience a profound metamorphosis as you transform and awaken to your true self. Under the guidance of Dr. Frances Carns, you will be tested physically, spiritually and emotionally; the result of these challenges will be an intense sense of empowerment and pride.

Participating in this retreat, you will be guided on one of the most empowering experiences of your life.
Under the breath-taking vista of the cascading waterfalls and natural wonder of the Genesee River gorge you will greet the Four Directions, Mother Earth and Father Sky. The fresh air, standing ones, magnificent waterfalls, ancient spirit rocks and healthy foods support you in conquering your hurdles. A challenging trail hike will test 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 lose any baggage inhibiting you from achieving your greatest potential.
Now is the time to awaken to your own truth!

You are your own creator. Along with Great Spirit you can create your truth awakening to love of self. Dr. Carns will teach you the deep understanding of the life force within live foods. You will learn how to prepare for the challenges you will encounter when you return back home. You will walk away from this retreat with new skills, tools, self-confidence, self-esteem and a healthy set of boundaries. You will take charge of your life knowing you can accomplish anything!

Who should join us?

Looking not only at the spiritual but Dr. Fran will also address possible medical reasons why women suffer with hormonal imbalances, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes and thyroid issues. There will be an overview of all mental, emotional and physical aspects: the wholeness of you…mind, body and spirit. Dr. Carns, who has earned the position as an Elder, will guide on a trail hike 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.
