“Why do so many of us reflect on our lives and relationships and ask,
“Isn’t there supposed to be something more?”
In these turbulent times it’s crucial to remember who we are, and to reconnect with our most precious resources - compassion, creativity,
resilience, and perhaps above all the capacity to enjoy
pleasure and reach out to community.
This week, we’ll create a safe, healing environment where we can
listen to the profound wisdom of our hearts. We’ll ally with
the elements and the beauties of the natural world that sustains us.
We’ll merge scientific truths with sacred ceremony and
down-to-earth exercises that connect us with each other and
the power of our life stories.
Our work together is based on the principle that supportive
sharing about love, desire, and our collective journeys can inspire us,
enrich our lives, and enhance our ability to help others.

Gina Ogden’s transformational “ISIS” practice will teach you innovative ways to:
• Create heart-to-heart communication in your
intimate relationships
• Cultivate your potential for creativity throughout your life-span.
• Transcend guilt, shame, and “Mars/Venus” messages
• Heal the sexual wounds of abuse, violence, and addiction
• Rejuvenate and nourish yourself even in stressful times

Women and men of all ages and all sexual and spiritual orientations
are welcome—with or without a partner.

SEMINAR IS LIMITED TO 16—

But that’s not all;
make sure you bring your camera and sketchbook, as there will be
numerous cultural excursions as well. We will visit the exotic
Botanical Gardens for photography and sketching and take in
it's extraordinary beauty, we will visit the Mt. town of El Tuito to
strolling the zocalo (town square), tour the small but beautiful
Hacienda Museum, having lunch and tequila tasting at the
hacienda restaurant, overlooking the mountains and the aguave
plantation with opportunities for horseback riding. We will also
be taking a trip into Puerto Vallarta for shopping the Mercado,
walking the malecon (boardwalk) and experience the lively arts
scene. There will be a boat trip to explore the gorgeous coastline and
spectacular rock formations, as well as to swim or snorkel at
Los Arcos National Coral Reef Park, with opportunities for seeing
sea turtles, whales, dolphins and abundant fish.
Other wild life is right at hand, from the balcony of your room you
can view tropical birds and observe the local unspoiled Boca. 
Watch (and participate) as the simple authentic Mexican village
life unfolds around you. This quaint fishing village unspoiled by
tourists, is a rare treat off the beaten path. Words don’t actually
do justice to the wonderful adventure in store for each participant.
  Come, relax and play in this fun and exhilarating
workshop. In the playful, nurturing and supportive environment of
Casa de los Artistas exploration is encouraged and creative
expression is cultivated
