	John of God, Case de Imacio, Abadiania, Brazil
	June 10-22, 2013 In 2002 I traveled to see John of God with spiritual teacher and ground breaking author Ram Dass. I have returned five times, taking friends and family on this inspiring, expansive spiritual experience. Three years ago I was given the right by the Medium Joao to guide people to the Casa. This trip is very individualistic and the process is specific to each. For me, each trip has been different yet equally profound. I have had numerous spiritual operations and one physical operation. I have experienced extreme joy, healing, sadness, cleansing and serenity. I have touched the void and experienced complete bliss in the face of the Great Spirit. During my physical operation I experienced infinity and the oneness of all. Typically I have gone for mental and spiritual health but received physical healing as well. My father came with me and his intent was for a physical healing, what he received was a deep and profound healing of the heart. + Expand
	Accommodations in Abadiania are small, simple, safe, posadas that serve as hospital rooms to the Casa. We will be staying at Posada Jardim Dos Anjos (GARDEN OF THE ANGELS). It has the best food in the village and the only solar heated (consistent) hot water system in town. The Rooms are simple, clean and the staff is excellent. The village is fun; it can be a social spiritual party. You will meet people from all over the world and most experience strong karmic connections with other visitors. - Reduce

The Ultimate Powder Ski Experience, Niseko, Japan

Feb 2, 2014

Thanks to the near-constant storm cycles pumping out of neighboring Siberia, the mountains on the Japanese island of Hokkaido are globally renowned for having some of the most consistent, lightest powder on Earth. Niseko is the preeminent spot here, an amalgam of four independently owned, interconnected resorts that girdle Mount Niseko Annupuri (skiable with one lift ticket). Averaging a jaw-dropping 590 inches of snow a year, there’s fresh powder more days than not on Niseko Annupuri and its abundant, lightly skied off-piste terrain (the Japanese have been inexplicably slow to embrace powder’s addictiveness). The town of Niseko, population 4,685, is an easy drive from the four separate base areas and features a laid-back, surf-town vibe and dozens of onsen, or hot springs, for settling into after-ski comas. Night skiing is huge here, and enormous stadium-style lights brighten 2,560 vertical feet of skiing. Deep-powder runs through illuminated nighttime forest are a Niseko specialty. The mountain’s perfectly spaced birch forests are often the best, most sheltered place to enjoy some of the best powder skiing on earth .

Cost is $6000. Pricing includes transportation form the Sapporo Airport, luxury lodging, breakfast, guides and instruction. Lunch, Dinner, ski rental and airfare are not included.
