"Carolyn speaks with a confidence that never flinches from entering into the hardest truths of our times, or from the most difficult truths about the culture we are immersed in. This is so that we might emerge from the chrysalis of global crisis with open hearts and a renewed way of living on Earth together."
--Juan Santos, Fourth World Blogspot

In this retreat, Carolyn will tell ancient stories using an African drum to assist you in accessing and utilizing the cache of inner treasure available to you. With it, we are all more equipped to navigate our way through unprecedented transitions and their reverberations in our lives and psyches. There will be experiential exercises and group process to support your own healing and community building. Weather permitting, you will also have the opportunity to deepen your connection with nature with stimulating exercises outdoors on the beautiful land.

The gifts you will receive;.

• Experience the power of myth, story, drumming, and ritual. This is the catalyst to move you beyond action alone into the deeper story that the great unraveling calls you to enter.
• Experience moments of community which erupt out of collectively opening to the evolutionary threshold which lies at the heart of the coming chaos.
• Have the opportunity to discover who you truly want to be in the face of the collapse of the "empire" and what that collapse may be calling you to be and do.

The weekend begins Friday at 8pm and continues until Sunday at 2pm.

Anyone is welcome to arrive early or stay on longer for a reduced rate
of $30/night in the Teepee/Cliff House or $60/night in the Lodge/Cottage.
Additional meals can also be purchased.

Biography of Carolyn Baker Ph.D.

Carolyn Baker, Ph.D., is the author of five books including Sacred Demise: Walking The Spiritual Path of Industrial Civilization’s Collapse. She works with Transition Colorado in Boulder on Transition Times, a global online newspaper of the worldwide Transition movement. She was a psychotherapist in private practice for 17 years and an adjunct professor of psychology and history for 11 years. She manages her website Speaking Truth to Power at CarolynBaker.net which publishes a Daily Digest of alternative news and options focused on preparing for the “long emergency.”

Carolyn's Mission:
“The Chinese proverb and curse says, ‘May you live in interesting times’.” In the first decade of the twenty-first century, we live in profound uncertainty, faced with issues unprecedented in the history of the human race. Truth To Power seeks to provide readers with a ‘fixed point in a changing universe’ that both informs and supports humanity’s efforts to remake the world—both our personal worlds and our planet. My intention is to offer a beacon of light in the smothering darkness with which we seem to be engulfed, making available information and specific ideas and strategies which we all might utilize as we experience the life/death/rebirth process inherent in the inner and outer realms of our current reality.”
