Busyness — it's getting crazy out there

I was sort of stunned by the reaction to my newsletter last week about Oprah. Whether you love her or hate her, she certainly evokes a reaction.
I don’t know why she is so strongly in my consciousness lately, but right after that I read another article she wrote and then I heard the craziest thing on NPR.
All of this has to do with busyness.
So the first part is what Oprah wrote in the last issue of O Magazine:
“For 25 years, I lived at 180 East Pearson in Chicago. Every morning at 6 o’clock, I was picked up in the basement garage of my towering building and driven to the basement of Harpo Studios, a 14-minute trip along darkened streets and the electrical hum of Michigan Ave. I’d work past 8 pm – many nights till 10. Only on weekends and in summer did I experience daylight”.
Then she goes on to say that getting outdoors (now that she has retired from her show) has restored her energy and centered her into wholeness.
The next thing was an incredible report on NPR. According to this study, the new status symbol in the United States is busyness. While it used to be that wealthy people who didn’t work were considered the high status people (“the idle rich”), now the busier you are, the more important you are considered to be, with higher status (as long as it’s work you actually want to be doing, not work you are being forced to do, just to make ends meet).
This is the result of research done by Neeru Paharia, a professor at Georgetown University. Her research has shown that the status symbol of leisure has been turned on its head, at least in the United States. In this day and age, we now attribute higher status, higher social standing to individuals who are always busy, always working hard, always spending many hours at work (again of their own volition, they want to be there).
How crazy is this?
It seems that everywhere we look, our culture is trying to make everyone crazier and crazier, more and more stressed, and more and more tense.
And then I think of Oprah going from one high rise building at 6 am and staying at another high rise building until 10 pm virtually every single night. I remember watching one of her shows when she was talking about and showing video of her working out at the specially designed gym she had at the Harpo studio. Never running, never walking outside, mainly working out on a treadmill under fluorescent lights.
Oprah has seen the difference it makes now that she’s not working the crazy hours and now that she’s spending time in nature as often as she can. In my newsletter last week, I talked about how she has finally discovered in just the past 2 years that she is whole, that she is “enough”. And now she shares that one of the ways she stays centered and whole is by spending as much time as possible in the outdoors.
After being a type A personality for most of my life and now having worked with clients at Sedona Soul Adventures for the past 15 years, my own unscientific research has shown me:

  • Everybody is way too busy
  • It’s making everybody miserable
  • It’s actually counter-productive
  • Everything we’ve been taught about working hard is just wrong
  • Just like Oprah finally discovered, I figured out that once I started slowing down, spending more time in nature, spending more time feeling balanced and centered, that’s when everything I wanted came to me — living my life purpose, being happy, being abundant.

It helps a lot to be in Sedona. Look at those red rocks in the picture. Just looking at the red rocks makes me feel so good. And hiking the trails with my dog is a sure fire way to feel centered and balanced. Feeling the energy here just feels blissful.
But it goes deeper than that. It’s about making a decision about how you’re going to live your life. Are you going to live it being crazy busy or are you going to live it feeling centered and grounded and happy and fulfilled? It truly is a choice that we are making in every moment.
I want to urge you to make a decision to live the life that is centered and grounded. I know that’s easier said than done, but as a recovering Type A personality, I know it’s possible. And I can guarantee you, it’s much more satisfying.
The question is, how do you make that shift? When I came to Sedona for the first time in 1999, I had just started my 20th year of law practice as a divorce attorney and I had 175 active cases. Talk about busy and crazy! It was that time in Sedona that started the process of me changing my life. Leaving my law practice and ultimately founding Sedona Soul Adventures in 2002.
But I had to learn how to be different. It wasn’t something I inherently knew how to do. Working with the practitioners in Sedona changed everything for me.
Could it change everything for you? I know it can. Come to Sedona and find the peace you’re looking for. We’ll help you come into that centered and grounded space and give you the tools to keep on doing that every day after you go home.
How long are you going to wait to have the peace and connection you’re craving? My recommendation is to not wait a minute longer.
Speak with one of our Angel Guides (they are the ones who will custom design your retreat). They’ll custom design a retreat of private one-on-one (or two-on-one if it’s a couples retreat) sessions with the master practitioners of Sedona (we have over 50!) which will take you from where you are to where you want to be.

We still have one space left for the Peru trip – June 17-30

I’m getting so excited about our Peru trip! It’s just a little over month away and it’s going to be so incredible. I’ve talked to so many people lately who have told me that Machu Picchu is on their bucket list. Is it on yours? If so, grab the last space that we have left. You’ll be glad you did!

Experiencing these amazing places, spending 2 weeks with our incredible shaman, Jorge Luis Delgado, traveling with other like-minded adventurers — it’s life changing.
Join me on this amazing journey.

“If you’re looking for deep and meaningful travel that connects you to other amazing people, takes you way behind the scenes and most important, creates the space for a deep dive into yourself, Debra and Sedona Soul Adventures has it down. Had I attempted to navigate my recent trip to Peru on my own, I’m confident I would have only experienced about 30% of the true magic Peru has to offer. Because the trip was so well organized and our guides were so knowledgeable, we experienced things every day that other travelers, lost on their own or stuffed in a tour bus, never got to see or feel. It was the trip of a lifetime and I am grateful and truly transformed.”

Oprah: “I was terrified of not being enough” What hope is there for the rest of us?

I love Oprah. I think Oprah has changed so many things for so many people. When you think of the background she came from — born into a very poor family, was sexually abused as a child — and then realize the heights she has reached and the influence she has had, it’s absolutely amazing.
I especially love that she has made spirituality so accessible to so many people.
So it was stunning to me to read an interview with her recently where she said:
“I was terrified of not being enough. Not being good enough, pretty enough, skinny enough. Trying to find the space of deep pain was harder for me. When I ended the show…for about two years I was completely off-balance”.
When I read that, my first thought was “Oh my gosh, if Oprah feels like that, what hope is there for the rest of us?”
It’s such a lesson, isn’t it? The money, the fame, the awards, the love of millions of fans — none of it was enough to make Oprah feel “enough”. And in the interview she says she knows people thinks she should automatically be happy because of her money. As she said in the interview, “I know a lot of rich people who are not happy.”
The other thing that amazed me was that she said:
“I never went to a therapist, ever. But I had so many therapists sitting in the chair across from me on the show.”
She was in all this pain and she wasn’t getting help for it? Oh my goodness, what is up with that? And she even had Dr. Phil at her disposal!
For me, Oprah’s pain and wounds are most evident in the struggles she’s had with her weight. I know that, like me, Oprah is a big believer in the work of Abraham, because she has interviewed Abraham (as channeled by Esther Hicks) a number of times (you can see the interviews on YouTube). Abraham’s philosophy is that weight (and health and abundance and everything else) is all about how we’re feeling and thinking and flowing our energy and our vibrations. As Abraham says, “It matters not what you eat, what matters is how you think and feel about what you’re eating”
I have such huge compassion for Oprah, because I had those struggles too for so many years. I talk about this in my book, “The Journey To Happy”. I “knew” the principles for many years, but it took me such a long time to finally figure out how to do it. Oprah has had such a public struggle with this and obviously has never been able to come to peace with it. My heart goes out to her.
The good news is that Oprah says that now finally, she feels a sense of “contentment”. She says it didn’t happen until just a few years ago, but how wonderful that it’s finally happened. She says:
“I’ve learned to love the whole of me..I’ve learned to turn off that negative voice in my head that complains about everything…I’ve really found this space within myself where everything is all right”.
That’s so interesting to me because the full title of my book is “The Journey To Happy: How Embracing The Concept Of Nothing Is Wrong Can Transform Your Life”. That really is the key. Finding that place where you really “get it” that nothing is wrong, where you feel that sense of peace and contentment. When that finally happened for me, it changed everything — my work, my relationships, I even dropped 40 pounds without diet or exercise, it just melted off!
So how do you get to that space? It took Oprah many years (according to the interview it didn’t happen until 2013). It took me many years and didn’t happen until I connected with the energy and the practitioners of Sedona back in 1999. How about you? How long are you going to wait to feel content, to feel balanced, to feel peace, to feel happy?
I would invite you to not wait a minute more. Life is too short, life is too precious to not be living it in a happy, joyful, connected way. Come to Sedona and do a Soul Adventure. I promise you, it will change your life.
When you connect with us, you’ll speak with one of our Angel Guides (they are the ones who will custom design your retreat). They’ll engage with you (or both of you, if it’s a couples retreat) and get to the root of what’s holding you back, what’s causing the trouble, what’s giving you pain. Then they’ll custom design a retreat of private one-on-one (or two-on-one if it’s a couples retreat) sessions with the master practitioners of Sedona (we have over 50!) which will take you from where you are to where you want to be. Click here and one of our Angel Guides will call you. Or if you’d prefer, call us toll free at 1-877-204-3664 (US and Canada). For our friends outside the US and Canada call 01 928-204-5988 or click here and one of our Angel Guides will call you. And remember, we’re even here for you on Sunday!
As I say all the time, If you knew what could happen, you’d be contacting us right now!
Wishing you a week filled with feeling like you are more than enough,

Eileen says her Soul Adventure “changed my life”

“I was at a point in my life where after a few rough years, I simply needed some help, I sought it and found Sedona Soul Adventures. This experience has changed my life, it centered me, allowed me to see the amazing life I already have and appreciate it, it has given me direction and an idea about how I want my future to be. I was extremely impressed and grateful for the customized sessions for my particular needs and the quality of the practitioners and SSA staff. Thank you Sedona Soul Adventures!”

Here’s all you have to do to get everything you want

If you’ve received my newsletters for very long, you’ll know that I’m a huge fan of Abraham. Their teachings have been so instrumental in my life and they are also very important in the work we do here at Sedona Soul Adventures.
For over 25 years, I’ve received their monthly recordings — first as cassette tapes, then as CDs and now as MP3s. Isn’t it interesting all the technology that’s happened during that time?
The monthly recording I received this week was especially impactful. They teach that we are all creating our reality in every moment. And they literally gave the recipe for having a happy, healthy, abundant, rewarding life and it’s pretty simple.
Be easy. Do less. Be nicer to yourself.
Here’s exactly what they said:
Please:
Be nicer to yourself
Take it easier
Put in a little less time on the things you feel you need to do
Spend more time doing the things you really want to do
Don’t pick a fight
Don’t fight back
Look for things that are humorous and funny
Spend more time by yourself
Get outside more
Look at the advantages that this time/space reality is yielding to you
Find appreciation for the beauty that this planet is yielding to you
Spend more time around animals (they are more allowing)
Tell your human friends you love them and you’ll see them later
Be easier about everything
Be more playful about everything
Be more consciously selfish for yourself
Do more of the things that feel good to you
Let your “Things To Do Today” list wait until tomorrow and the next day and the next day
Be easy, and watch what happens
If you apply this, you will see so much evidence of what you have been asking for because you deserve it, you’re ready for it and there’s only been one thing that’s been holding it off and that is:
you’re working too hard,
you’re trying too hard,
you’re making it about action rather than vibration.
I know what some of you are thinking. This flies in the face of everything we’ve been taught. I know that for myself, growing up in my German Catholic family, my parents taught me that working harder would get me what I wanted.
When I got out in the world, though, I discovered that just ain’t so.
And through the course of the past 25 years, I’ve discovered that the more I let go of pushing, demanding and working so hard, things just seem to start to flow.
It’s very simple, but it’s not easy. But I can guarantee you, that whenever I go with the flow, that’s when everything flows in the most amazing ways.
When I first came to Sedona in 1999, every part of my life was messed up. I hated my work, I was in debt, I was 40 pounds overweight, and I was in an unhappy marriage. Even though I was listening to the Abraham teachings (and believed them) I simply couldn’t figure out how to put those teachings into my daily life. So on top of everything else that was going on, I was feeling frustrated and disappointed. It was a vicious cycle.
Coming to Sedona changed everything. The work that I did with the practitioners here finally brought me into the higher vibrations that led to my life transforming — with my work, with my body, with my relationships and with my abundance. I finally received the tools of how to do all this:
• how to stop worrying
• how to stop living from fear
• how to have more happiness and joy and abundance in my life
When I started Sedona Soul Adventures in 2002, that’s what I wanted to bring to the world. A way for everyone else to have all that.
So how about you?
Would you like to stop worrying?
Would you like to stop living your life from fear?
Would you like to feel what it feels like to feel inner peace?
Would you like to have more happiness and joy and abundance in your life?
If so, come to Sedona and do a Soul Adventures retreat. We’ll get at the root of what’s causing the worry and fear and blocks and bring you into the happiness and joy and abundance that you’re seeking. Click here and one of our Angel Guides will call you. Or if you’d prefer, call us toll free at 1-877-204-3664 (US and Canada). For our friends outside the US and Canada call 01 928-204-5988 or click here and one of our Angel Guides will call you.

We now have 3 spots for our Machu Picchu trip (June 17-30) and we need one female roommate

Last week I told you we had one more spot left and now, sadly, two people have had to postpone the trip due to illness. And now one of our people wants a roommate (female). So if you didn’t have someone to travel with, here’s your chance. And the great news is that the person who wants a roommate is Regina Medina, one of our Angel Guides. So she will be a fun, spiritual, deep, compassionate roommate. You’ll love her!

This is so great, because it saves you $950 off the cost when you share a room. But you need to act fast! We would need to make all arrangements this coming week, including payment, getting your passport information, etc.
Wouldn’t it just be great to know that in 8 weeks you’re going to Machu Picchu? The trip is June 17-30 and I can’t tell you how excited I’m getting. Regina is going, my fiancé Richard is going — this is going to be a very special trip.
And remember you don’t have to be a Sedona Soul Adventures graduate to come on our trips.

“I have just returned from the Enchanted Peru trip and my feet have not touched the ground yet!  I knew the trip would exceed my expectations as my  Sedona Soul Adventure 8 yrs ago did as well. But what I could not imagine, in my most optimistic anticipation or wildest imagination, were all the intricacies that Debra would weave together to create such an awe and joy inspiring pilgrimage. And then to be in the presence of Jorge Luis Delgado for 2 weeks was incredible. With Jorge’s guidance, encouragement and mystical tools we were brought into an overwhelming  space of love and appreciation  for the spirit, the country, the people, each other, and ourselves. I could never have imagined the quick and  intense bonding that occurred between each one of us. Every day our hearts opened wider! We laughed together, we cried together, we grew and expanded! And I sobbed when the time came to go our separate ways. To find yourself in the presence of so many like minded people is a positively jolting experience. Many are now friends that I will cherish for the rest of my life on the planet and beyond. This experience is one I will never forget. I know that the effects of this trip are now flowing constantly into my daily life. Negative responses to life’s challenges are very hard to muster. I have a permanent smile on my face. I am at peace.
 
If you are considering a trip with Sedona Soul Adventures I can only say one thing. GO FOR IT!”

I’m Engaged! I’m so happy [Pix inside]

If you’ve been reading my newsletter for awhile, you know that I tell you everything that’s going on in my life — and I do mean everything! Over the years I’ve had friends ask me if I felt comfortable opening myself up to the world and I’ve always said a resounding yes. I want everyone who comes into contact with me and with Sedona Soul Adventures to feel like they really know who we are.
So it is with great happiness that I’m sharing with you that my beloved Richard proposed to me last week when we were in Aruba. I was completely and utterly surprised.
 
He chose the perfect setting, a beautiful restaurant which is right on the beach. At sunset. We had a beautiful dinner, complete with a bottle of champagne (which didn’t tip me off, because champagne is my favorite thing to drink).
 
This was taken before he popped the question. I think Aruba has some of the most beautiful white sand beaches in the world. Isn’t it beautiful?
 
 
 
 
 
For dessert they brought us their “Surprise Dessert” which had sparklers and I still didn’t think anything about it. Suddenly Richard plopped the box in front of me, gift wrapped, but it was unmistakably a ring box. I’m pretty sure my mouth popped open, while he started talking. I don’t remember exactly what he said, as I was busy tearing open the box!
 
But he said all the right stuff — I love you, I know we’re supposed to be together, I want to spend my life with you…
 
 
 
 
 
When he slipped the ring on my finger, I was astounded that it fit perfectly, and I remember thinking “how did he get the size so perfectly right?”.
Turns out he stealthily took the ring I wear every day and put it on his finger to get the sizing (he’s so smart).
 
Plus he had sent this picture of the ring to everyone in his family and all his friends, telling them he was going to propose to me when we were in Aruba. It’s a good thing I said yes!
 
 
 
 
Then he kissed me and I saw all these cameras flashing (everyone around us had been told what was happening).
Then he arranged for a dozen red roses to appear.
It was so beautiful and so perfect, a dream come true.
 
And it literally was a dream come true. It feels strange to say it, but I feel like I finally have experienced love. For the first time in my life. I feel like I finally know what everyone has been talking about all these years and singing about in all the songs. To experience that after so much time, is almost beyond my comprehension, and I feel so incredibly grateful and so incredibly blessed.
We are both amazed that we have found each other and we were just speaking about it again last week when we were in Aruba. During our time together, we’ve had readings with different practitioners here at Sedona Soul Adventures and we’ve found out about past lives we’ve had with each other, as well as information about the reasons why our souls have brought us together. In one reading we were told that it’s very important for us to live our lives in fun and excitement – we’re both up for that!
I see this as the ultimate culmination of what Sedona does. When I first came here in 1999, every part of my life was in turmoil. Since coming to Sedona, every part of my life has turned around. It truly is a dream that has now manifested into reality.
Sedona has changed everything for me. Could it change everything for you? I always come back to the fact of why I started Sedona Soul Adventures in the first place — I want everyone on the planet to experience the same joy and happiness and love that I have experienced, because I know first hand what’s possible.
 
So if you’re looking to …
Have more joy in your life
Create an amazing relationship
Become the person that attracts your soulmate
Have more fun in your life
Create more abundance
Experience deep, meaningful love
Then connect with us and let’s find out what’s possible for you.
Speak with one of our Angel Guides and they’ll have a heart to heart conversation with you to really dive deep into what’s going on and what you want in your life and then they’ll custom design a retreat that will take you from where you are to where you want to be. Click here and one of our Angel Guides will call you. Or if you’d prefer, call us toll free at 1-877-204-3664 (US and Canada).

I want everyone on the planet to experience the depth of love that’s available to all of us.

Before and After [Amazing Pics inside]

For me, the biggest sign of something really changing is the Before and After. One of the things we started doing about a year ago is asking clients to tell us at the end of their retreat exactly what happened to them. They tell us: “Before my Soul Adventure, I was…” and “After my Soul Adventure, I am…” We do this as part of their final session, which is called Intuitive Integration. We have everyone do that session, because we go over all the transformations which have happened and then we help them with how to completely integrate the transformations into their daily lives, because, of course, being able to live these transformations every single day is the most important part of the retreat.
When I decided to write about this, I thought I would send you one of the biggest examples of my transformations that have happened since I came to Sedona. If you’ve read my newsletter for awhile (or read my book The Journey To Happy), you know that when I first came to Sedona in 1999 that every part of my life was a mess – I hated my work, I was in debt, I was in an unhappy marriage and I was also at least 40 pounds overweight. The picture on the left was taken when I first started coming to Sedona and the one on the right is how I look now. Coming to Sedona and working with the amazing practitioners changed everything for me.
Even though the physical change was dramatic, the physical change was more of a reflection of the incredible changes that happened to me on the emotional, mental and spiritual levels. As I talk about in my book, every part of my life started changing and shifting. I found my life purpose and soul mission and that’s what led me to start Sedona Soul Adventures so that I could bring that same kind of before and after transformation to other people. Here are some beautiful examples:
Before: Lost – After: Confident with Who I am
Charlene said, “Before my Soul Adventure I was lost. After my Soul Adventure, I am more confident with who I am and how to be.”
Before: Angry – After: Peaceful
Michelle said, “Before my Soul Adventure I was uptight, anxious, angry, unsure of what would happen. Now I have tools to make real changes. How do I want to create my life? I have choices. I can make a positive impact on not just my own life but my son’s and my husband’s too. I’ve found peace”
Before: Worried & Controlling – After: Going with the flow
Erica said, “Before this Soul adventure I was worried and wanting to control everything and now I am totally in the flow.”
Before: Trying to change the other person – After: Appreciating who the other is
Lynn said, “Before my Soul Adventure I was in my head and I’m a heart centered intuitive person but I was really trying to fit into an exterior model of how I should be and do things in the world. I was also trying to shift others into my model of how to be. Now I know it’s safe to be my true and authentic self. I can just be who I am without apology or fear. In the relationship before Sedona Soul Adventures I was trying for lack of a better term to get the “5” (enneagram type) out of him. Now I appreciate who he really is and we can both step out of our heads and into our hearts and our bodies going forward.”
David said, “Before my Soul Adventure I was unaware of my self and my legacy from childhood and the impact it was having on my adult life and the way I see the world. Now I have so much new knowledge and the impact on our relationship is amazing. Our communication is so much better. I can explain it now. It’s not personal we just have these different styles.”
Before: Despair about the relationship – After: hopeful
Marcia said, “Before my soul adventure I was in despair and sadness and not sure there was any remedy for our situation. Now I’m hopeful and eager to figure out how to approach our life differently so we can be happy.”
Jim said “Before my soul adventure I had a very analytical view of fixing things and couldn’t fix our situation. When this came about we found a way to get here because I knew this would be the only thing that could really work. It opened my eyes to a new way to have a household. I will get to break my programming and instruction so that I can relax a bit more and steer instead of take control and I know it will get easier.”
Before: Marriage shattered by affair – After: Excited about the future
Andy said “Before my Soul Adventure I was empty and searching. I was on a path but unsure if this would move us together or push us apart. And now I feel closer to Joanne than I ever have. Everything was meant to be and we wouldn’t have come to Sedona if it had not been for the affair. I’ve released the shame and I’m moving forward with a brighter lighter being. I am now the man I want to be. I am excited about our future together.”
Joanne said, “Before our Soul Adventure I was in disbelief and numb. We were talking but I was just numb. I kept thinking ‘Once a cheater, always a cheater’. I had always wanted to do a spiritual retreat as a couple even before the affair. I was excited to come here. Now after, I’m open to not holding up ultimatums and keeping a broader mind. The affair was all from old wounds. Both of us had needs not being met. This is all a blessing.”
What would be your before and after?
Whenever I talk to anyone about doing a Sedona Soul Adventures retreat, they tell me about all the stuff that is going on in their life and then I ask them to pretend that they could wave a magic wand, everything would shift and what would that look like? What is your before and what would you like your after to be? I promise you, we can get you to your “after” faster and easier than you might think.
How do we do that? We spend time really talking to you (or both of you, if it’s a couple), really digging deep to get to the heart of the matter.

Elizabeth says before her Soul Adventure she was “lost and frustrated” and after her Soul Adventure she is “at peace”

“Before my soul adventure I was feeling lost and frustrated. I was discouraged and questioning myself. I was afraid to taking a wrong step. Now I feel more at peace. I’m more optimistic. I know I’m right where I need to be.”

Last Call for Machu Picchu & Peru June 17-30 — Some irreverent reasons why you should come

Is going to Machu Picchu on your bucket list? If so, I’m putting out the last call for our amazing trip that is June 17-30. Here are just some of the reasons why you should come:
 
 
 
 
1. You aren’t getting any younger. Sorry to be so blunt, but I’m serious. If you want to go to Peru you need to go while you can still do a lot of walking and hiking. This is a very active trip and you need to go while you have the energy and vitality to do it. Climbing the stone walls of Machu Picchu and the beautiful steps of Ollantaytambo are mind blowing and you want to be able to enjoy it.
 
 
 

2. How much longer are you going to put off really living the life you want? So many people have told me that “someday” they are going to take one of my fabulous trips to Egypt or Peru. Guess what? I can guarantee you that none of those people will ever go. Living a fabulous, connected life takes commitment and requires making the decisions necessary to accomplish that. If you want to go to Machu Picchu, you need to do it and make it happen.
 
3. Quit lying to yourself. Quit telling yourself you don’t have the money and you don’t have the time. In my 30+ years of working with people, I have discovered that people find the money for things they really want and they take the time to do the things they really want to do. One of the women who went to Egypt with me a few years ago had just started a new job 2 days earlier when in her meditation she “got it” that she absolutely was supposed to go to Egypt. She literally contacted me the day we were leaving. Her boss understood and gave her permission to go. She came and it was a completely amazing and transformational trip for her and she knows she was an even better and happier worker upon her return. Over the years I’ve also had so many people tell me about money falling out of the sky once they absolutely decided that they were going.
4. You know you need this. If you are feeling the pull to go on this trip, you need to be listening. Spirit is trying to get your attention. I know for me that when I don’t listen to those messages, bad things happen to make me start listening.
 
 
 
And, of course, here are the “normal” reasons why you should go:
1. Our guide and shaman, Jorge Luis Delgado, is the absolute best. One of the most common things my people say is that going to Peru without Jorge would be like not experiencing Peru at all.
2. Peru is considered to be the spiritual center of the planet right now by the Dalai Lama. Need I say more?
 
3. We’ll be at Machu Picchu on the Solstice, doing ceremony.
4. You’ll be experiencing Peru with other like minded seekers. You’ll make friends that last a lifetime and experience these amazing places in a sacred way.
 
 
5. We take care of everything. From the time you land in Peru, you will love how absolutely everything is handled for you — wonderful hotels, fantastic food, all the transportation, you won’t have to think about anything except your own transformations.
6. The price is incredible. For everything that you receive on this trip, the price is amazing. Three flights within Peru, hotels, all transportation, all the amazing places we see, breakfast and dinner each day, admission to all the sites, being with Jorge Luis for 2 weeks, it’s fantastic. Just $5695 per person (double occupancy) – the Single Supplement (your own room) is $950.
7. A life changing journey. So many people over the years have told me the Peru trip changed their lives. Are you ready for a life changing transformation?
Join me on this trip of a lifetime.

Lisa says the Peru trip “was the trip of a lifetime and I am grateful and truly transformed.”

“If you’re looking for deep and meaningful travel that connects you to other amazing people, takes you way behind the scenes and most important, creates the space for a deep dive into yourself, Debra and Sedona Soul Adventures has it down. Had I attempted to navigate my recent trip to Peru on my own, I’m confident I would have only experienced about 30% of the true magic Peru has to offer. Because the trip was so well organized and our guides were so knowledgeable, we experienced things every day that other travelers, lost on their own or stuffed in a tour bus, never got to see or feel. It was the trip of a lifetime and I am grateful and truly transformed.” (That’s Lisa kneeling in the front row)

Feeling the urge to change things up?

The weather is warmer, the trees are budding and even though it’s a little early, it definitely feels like Spring is here! I don’t know about you, but this time of year gets me excited with feelings of new possibilities. Much more so than the New Year, which is just a date on the calendar, Spring makes the sap rise in the trees and it makes energy rise in me!
Spring makes me feel the urge to do something new, something exciting. I even love Spring cleaning! Moving out the old to make way for the new is how I like to live my life. How about you? Do you feel the urge?
For me, Spring is one of the most beautiful times to come to Sedona. The weather is perfect, the sun is shining, the wild flowers are starting to bloom, the energy is so high here!
It got me thinking about all the different types of transformations that are available here. What do you have the urge to purge or better yet, the urge to bring in?
Are you feeling stuck in your life? A Sedona Soul Adventure is the perfect antidote:
“Sedona Soul Adventures maybe saved my life! I was at such a low place when I went searching for some sort of healing. I felt so stuck and needed help to move forward. I also needed past life resolution and hope for a happy future. I got it all! Also great tools to keep me going.”
Diane M., Anatone, Washington
Do you feel like you aren’t living your life purpose? We can help you with that:
“I have been obsessed with trying to figure out my life purpose since I was a kid. That I did not already know the answer at this point in my life was more than depressing. I was angry with myself for not knowing my purpose. I was grieving and unable to forgive myself or anyone around me. My 3-day retreat answered every single one of my questions and opened the door to forgiveness and healing. I know what my purpose is. I am living my purpose now. Sedona Soul Adventures was the miracle I needed and I’m so grateful I had the courage to be open to growth.”
Rachel M., Minneapolis, Minnesota
Do you have emotional blocks you just can’t seem to clear out? Come here to do your Spring cleaning:
“I needed to revive my chaoticly overwhelming life. I’ve cleared out, cleaned up and climb forward because of this amazing Soul Adventure. It’s rare that something is PERFECT, but this was for me. Do it, there is NO way you can regret this or be sorry. You’ll forever be changed for the better.”
Colette C., Corona, California
Are you having a problem with loving yourself? That’s such a huge issue for so many people and one we are so great at working with:
“After my Soul Adventure, the way I view myself and the world has completely changed. I feel empowered and I am loving myself, for the first time in my life. I wake up every morning and tell the universe what I am grateful for. Rather than seeing a glass as half empty, I now see it has half full. I am going toward a new career path that I am passionate about. I am nurturing friendships and for the first time I feel truly independent and confident.”
Carol M., Fremont, California
Is traditional couples therapy not doing it for you?
“Soul Adventures came along at just the right time for my wife and I. We had tried traditional counseling in the past but failed to really make headway on any of our issues. Soul Adventures comes at relationships from several angles and they really made a difference in the way we view ourselves, our needs and our relationship. It not only provided solid guidance on our main issues but also brought us a sense of purpose.”

Kent & Ida M., Shreveport, Louisiana
Concerned this will just be a quick fix and it won’t last?
“Sedona Soul Adventures surpassed all my expectations. I have a tool box that I can use when faced with challenges, and am better able to recognize triggers and instead of reacting, I’m able to reconnect with my inner voice and follow a path that is informed by love instead of ego or fear. Worth every penny.”
Kelly R., Chicago, Illinois
Afraid it won’t work?
“Before I began my program with the Soul Adventure, my life was in shambles, literally. Every aspect of my life was at a critical point and I needed to get clear and focused so that I could begin to make changes with the right heart and mindset. I felt fearful and doubtful that I could make anything positive come about in my life. At the end of my Soul Adventure, I felt so balanced, grounded and sure of myself and the choices I needed to make. I’m not afraid anymore, I feel ready to take on the world with a renewed sense of self. I now believe in my ability to make changes with my heart and soul driving me from a very clear and loving place.”

Sanyu C., East Orange, New Jersey
Afraid it’s too much money?
“The experience was by far the very best investment I ever made in myself. You folks are changing the world one soul at a time and I honor the light within all of you.”
Cindy L., Omaha, Nebraska
“I was at a crossroads in my life, and was searching for guidance as to my next step although very aware of lingering past issues. Sedona Soul Adventures provided me with an opportunity to heal the past so my vision for my future was clearer. It was the emotional “cleansing” that I needed and has given me the tools I need to move forward with clarity. Worth every penny.”
Lea K., Anchorage, Alaska
“Some of the negative feelings I had bottled up in my mind for almost half a century had been driven me to the wall. After I went through my Soul Adventure, I was able to know the causes of my problems and I learned  skills of how to deal with them. I felt that it was worth every penny.”
Vicki C., Los Angeles, California

“My Soul Adventure to Peru involved great spiritual insights but the greatest gift I was given by my experience was heart-warmingly human: Gratitude for life on planet earth. We continually workshopped on gratitude, love, and service while exposing ourselves to one another and to the beautiful elements of Peru. I left changed and inspired to continue my path in love, gratitude, and service. I will forever consider Peru my second home, and my Soul Adventure Group, my family. Muchos gracias!”

Announcing our new Executive Retreats for Men and Women

 Are you an executive or business owner?
Have you found yourself feeling less than your true self lately?
If you’re like a lot of female executives, you’re not as happy as you thought you’d be.
Maybe some (or all) of these resonate with you
You feel disconnected from yourself, others and your feminine side.
You feel weighed down by fear and anxiety about the future.
And you’re burned out … devoid of drive, passion and purpose.
 
If you’re like a lot of male executives, you’re still not happy.
Maybe some (or all) of these resonate with you
You feel irritable, constantly angry and trapped by your responsibilities.
You feel empty, dissatisfied and unfulfilled – and out of touch with who you really are.
And your mind buzzes with distracting chatter … making it nearly impossible to tune into the intuition that used to serve you so well.
If any of the above sounds like you read on…
When I first came to Sedona 18 years ago, I had just started my 20th year of law practice. I was working 60-70 hours per week, I had 5 people working for me and I was completely burned out and stressed out. I had reached a level of success, but the gnawing feeling I kept having was “is that all there is?” and “Is this as good as it gets?”.
I meet so many people and we’ve worked with so many people (both men and women) who are in this same place in their lives — and feeling disconnected and dissatisfied.
We’ve had so many of these people come to us that now we’re dedicating a special part of our work to these people – executives, business owners, etc. who are stressed out, burned out and feeling unhappy and dissatisfied. To clear that out and bring them back into connection with that highest part of themselves. So that they know and are living their life purpose and soul mission.
Does that sound like you or someone you know?
If so, we’re in the process of putting the final touches on our brand new Executive Retreats Guides. (They’re complimentary).

Darren says his retreat saved his life and it’s been “the single best decision I have made for myself and the ones I love”

“I truly believe and know in my heart that I would not be living life today had I not found Soul Adventures. My beliefs have changed. My heart is full. My patterns are different. My old self that was full of pain and prevented me from moving forward was left in the desert somewhere. My new self is pure of thought and full of love for myself, and those around me. I am the being I was meant to be born into this world. There may be those who read this and are saying to themselves ‘yeah, right how can anything change a person’s life that much?’ That resistance is a great indication that this is for you as I was that person at one time. The resistance I had was the refusal to look at myself. I chose to face myself and did the work and gained my life back. Sedona Soul Adventures is the single best decision I have made for myself and the ones I love. My life has changed completely. Difficult decisions have become easy. Difficult people at work have become pleasant and easy to deal with. My relationship with the lady I love has become deep and loving. My children have become happier, outgoing and confident. Good things are happening in a short period of time because I changed me. If it sounds simple, it is! Change ourselves and everything around us changes.”

Darren W., Grand Prairie, Alberta

Egyptians love us and we love them

I love it when I walk in Egypt and the people at the market, etc., say “where are you from?” and I say “America” and they always say “We love Americans!” and it’s true. It’s not just because we spend money there (which we do), but they also know that most Americans are friendly and fun loving and they enjoy interacting with us.
I’ve been coming to Egypt since 1983 and what I’ve found is that the Egyptian people are some of the warmest and friendliest people I’ve ever met anywhere in the world. As we close out this year’s amazing Egypt trip, I thought I’d just send you a taste of it. Our group was so lucky, we were able to do some things that simply aren’t possible unless you’re in the right place at the right time:

This year was the first time in 8 years we were able to stay at the Mena House. It was originally built by the British as a hunting lodge back in the 1860’s, it’s right next to the Pyramids and it’s absolutely spectacular.
 
You can’t imagine what it’s like to wake up in the morning and see the Pyramids, these structures that have withstood the test of time and are a reminder of our connections with our ancient past.
This is the view from where we had breakfast each morning.
 
 
 
 
 

On our very first day we were able to ride camels to the Solar Cross, which is just across from the Pyramids. We were able to do a meditation there which was very powerful.
 
No one knows the exact meaning of this place. Contemplating these mysteries is one of the most fun aspects of this trip.
 
 

We went to the Serrapium, which is the place where the Apis bulls are mummified and buried. Each sarcophagus is huge and we were able to do a meditation here.
 
I love how the light is illuminating Patricia’s face. It’s so beautiful and serene.
 
 
 

As we left the Serrapium, we were suddenly met by a busload of school children who were on their way there. When they saw us, they all came running over and they wanted to do high five’s and have their photos taken. It was very sweet and shows you how children are the same wherever you go.
 
 
 

I have seen this woman, Wafaa, baking bread at this restaurant in Sakkara for each trip I’ve been on since 1995. At that time, her daughter (on the right) was a little baby, but now she is learning this skill from her mother.
Every year when she sees me, she exclaims loudly, jumps up and gives me a big hug.
 
 
 

I decided to get my hair done and have a manicure and was taken to a salon a few blocks from our hotel that was obviously for locals, not tourists.
 
Even though no one spoke English, I figured out quickly that this little boy (Mohammed, the son of the manicurist) had just gotten a new kitten (named Lily). Although he looks like he’s strangling the cat, he’s not, the cat was enjoying it!
Mohammed was very proud of the cat and was showing off for me. He kept wanting me to pet the cat, even though my nails were wet! So cute!
 
 
 
 

In the Khan el Kalili market (which is over 1000 years old) we found a woman who did henna tattoos and a few of us did that – here’s mine.
 
The tattoos are temporary and last about a week. Women typically do this when they get married.
It was so funny, a few days later I received a text from my next door neighbor, who just returned from India and she sent me a photo of her with her henna tattoo that she had just received. What are the chances of both of us having a henna tattoo! I love experiencing these small, nuanced differences in cultures.
 
 
 
 

One of the incredible things that happened is that through a friend of a friend we were able to get into the Sekhmet Temple and do a meditation. There were orbs all over, see this huge one next to the head of the goddess?
 
What is an orb? No one knows for sure, but I can tell you definitely it is not a light anomaly with the camera. I believe they are beings from other dimensions, including beings who have crossed over, who are connecting with us, trying to help us.
 
My experience is they seem to only show up in the most special, sacred of places.
 
 
 
 

This is the place where in 1983, on my first trip to Egypt, I heard voices. I don’t typically hear voices, but I did here. That was one of the things that has fed my life-long interest in this amazing place.
 
Finding out about the past life that I had at this place has been a major part of my healing in this lifetime.
 
 
 

I think I fit right in, don’t you?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The next day we went to the Temple of Abydos. This is one of my favorite places because carved into the wall is the unmistakable images of a helicopter, a tank and a submarine. Can you see them?
 
No one has any explanation for any of this, it’s just mystical Egypt being her amazing self.
 
 
 
 
 

At the fabulous Temple of Hathor, the Egyptian government has begun a project of cleaning the walls from the soot and grit and grime that have built up over thousands of years. These are the original colors – extraordinary!
 
They left in this patch of black so that we can the startling difference.
 
 

Here is our fantastic group with our fabulous guide in the middle. Raafat is so incredibly knowledgeable and fun. I don’t believe there is a question he doesn’t know the answer to.
 
Here we are in front of the Temple of Hatsepshut, the most powerful of the female pharaohs.
 
 
 

We were so incredibly lucky that we were able to see the Tomb of Nefertari. Nefertari was the favorite wife of Ramses II, one of the most powerful of the Egyptian pharaohs, who ruled for over 60 years. The Getty Foundation completely restored her fabulous tomb in the 1980’s and it was open for awhile until they realized how much damage was being done by humidity and the tourists coming into the tomb. I saw the tomb in 2000 and in 2006, but then they provided only for private visits and the price was just too astronomical. I thought I would never see it again in this lifetime. But we were able to see it – the colors and the energy are just unbelievable. Another indicator of the good luck this group carried.
 
 
 

One of the most fun things we do is 5 days on a 5 star Nile cruise ship. This is the sun deck where there is a pool and jacuzzi. We had just finished a fabulous lunch when I took this picture.
 
It’s so incredible to sit on the sun deck and cruise down the Nile, stopping at the temples along the way.
 
I said to someone in the group, “someone has to be cruising down the Nile, it might as well be us!” We all feel so incredibly grateful and blessed.
 
 
 
 
 

At the Temple of Kom Ombo, I got to play with cobras!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

This year we had a mother and daughter (Karen and Meryl), a son and a mother and 2 best friends. What beautiful connections. Here are Karen and Meryl on our Galabaya party night, where we get to dress like Egyptians, and dance and party.
 
It’s one of the most fun parts of the trip.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Abu Simbel boasts the largest statues in the world – it is nothing short of spectacular.
 
 
 
 

On Saturday we have our 2 hours of private time inside the Great Pyramid, where we’ll do some incredible ceremonies. It is always so amazing what happens in this sacred place.
On Sunday as you read this, I’ll be on my way back to the States. It’s been an amazing 2 weeks. It’s been filled with new awareness, new consciousness and a new appreciation for life. What an incredible blessing.
If you would like to come next year, we always do it the last 2 weeks of February. The new Cairo Museum will open before then and that will be absolutely incredible! Send me an email if you think you might like to come – Debra@SedonaSoulAdventures.com
It will definitely be another trip of a lifetime.
Wishing you a week filled with adventure,
Debra

Greetings from Egypt – Musings on living a Spirit-Centered life

Greetings from Egypt! Here is our small, but powerful, group! As usual, we were all in love with each other within 48 hours, which is such a wonderful part of our journeys. So far, we’ve ridden camels to the Great Pyramid, kissed the Sphinx, seen the treasures of King Tut (and the other amazing finds in the Cairo Museum), visited the Steppe Pyramid and we have been so lucky. They just opened a new pyramid at the Sakkara complex (which I have never seen in my 16 other trips because it was closed) and we will be able to see the Tomb of Nefertari, which I have visited twice, but thought I would never see again in this lifetime (more on that next week).
All of these places and all of these things that we have seen remind me again of what I love about ancient Egyptian life, which is that everything revolved around their connection with their spirituality.
For the ancient Egyptians, every part of life was a preparation for the afterlife. Every decision, every life choice, all aspects of their lives were lived with the focus on their connection to the Divine.
This meant living your life in a way that would make it possible for you to go to what we call Heaven after your death. That meant being an honorable and good person and living your life in spiritual connection.
The ancient Egyptians believed that at the time of your death your heart would be weighed against a feather. This is a depiction of the Last Judgment. You see this scene all over Egypt in carvings and temples and papyrus.
If your heart was lighter than the feather (meaning you had lived a good life and weren’t weighted down by evil), you would enter into Paradise and live out eternity with the Gods and Goddesses. However, if your heart was heavier than the feather, it was bad news. Your soul would be devoured by the jackals and you would be denied entry into Paradise.
So if you died tomorrow and the Egyptians are right about the Last Judgment, what would happen with you? Would your heart be lighter than a feather? Would you be able to pass and party on with the Gods and Goddesses into eternity?
What if you lived your life with the idea that there is a higher purpose for your life? A greater knowing? A higher way to be?
We spend so much time focused on the day to day-ness of our lives. Doing our email, going to work, dealing with the kids, dealing with our partners, children, bosses, employees, doing housework, trying to do something fun on the week-ends, getting the car washed, cooking, cleaning, it doesn’t leave much time for anything else. It certainly doesn’t leave much time for connecting in with the highest part of ourselves and the Divine.
Would your life be different if you put just a little bit of focus on your life as a spiritual person? I know it would. It’s amazing what happens when you come from that perspective even just a little bit.
You’re calmer.
You’re more relaxed.
You don’t worry as much.
You start to have an innate knowing that everything will work out, that all is well.
You’re living your life from a place of peace, rather than a place of stress.
Sound good?
Although I have been on my spiritual path since 1978 when my mother died, I didn’t really begin living a spirit-driven life in earnest until I moved to Sedona in 2002. I highly recommend it. It has made all the difference in my life.
Are you interested in living more of a spirit-driven life? If so, consider coming to Sedona and doing a Soul Adventures retreat. It can jump start you in that direction faster than anything I know.
Connect with us and speak with one of our Angel Guides. They’ll connect with you in deep conversation and discover your deepest needs and desires; then they’ll custom design a retreat that’s perfect to set you on the path of living a spirit-driven life.

Michele says that her emotionally healing Soul Adventure was incredible for her spiritual growth

“My Sedona Soul Adventures retreat was so much more than I could have hoped for.
Everyone I encountered there was so unique and special…in who they were and what they did as practitioners. My Soul Adventure was custom made for me and proved incredibly helpful to my spiritual growth. I am now emotionally healed, my energies are balanced and my mind is clear. They also helped me to tear down the thick wall so I could open my heart. Most unexpectedly, I discovered I had newly raised consciousness. I wasn’t expecting that at all but am incredibly happy and excited to view life from this new perspective. I always had a strong spiritual take on life but this was unlike anything I’ve experienced and it’s with me to stay.


I truly can’t wait to return to Sedona and the other adventures they offer around the world. They all sound so seductive to my thirsty soul.”
