A remote canyon setting ... primeval silence ... flat water paddling ... secluded sandbars ... evening fires ... delicious food ... lively conversation ... dreamwork ... and lots of laughter.
For the past twenty years, Michael has been leading small groups into the canyons of southeastern Utah to explore the deepest levels of the spiritual quest, to reconnect with the sacredness of the earth, and to explore the art of co-creation.
At the river's edge, we adopt a reverential attitude towards the place, and use use the principle of "necessary communication only" to explore what is a defense against the unknown, and what really needs to be said, or be heard.
As we sink into the natural rhythm of the place, Michael weaves together insights from pioneering work on dialogue with the wisdom of dreams, so that we can come into alignment with what is moving within, beneath the self.
Most mornings start off slow to commune with the silence and beauty of the landscape, followed by paddling on the river, hiking in a side canyon, or taking a refreshing swim, without a predetermined plan for how each day unfolds.
This year, Michael is teaming up with The River's Path to share his way of moving in the canyons with a wider audience, and to support a group of people who want to explore a vision of awakening to the origin of all that exists.
When the trip through Labyrinth Canyon reaches 12-15 participants, we will take reservations for a second trip through Stillwater Canyon, and a few slots will be set aside for people who want to spend sixteen days under an open sky.
**Cost: $2,895 per trip, including equipment rentals, shuttles, and catered meals.**
Michael's work should not be confused with the talking school of nonduality, an emotional processing group, or even a traditional meditation group. It has its own origin, and logos, that does resemble a few other speakers from the Celtic world.
To gauge how well Michael's work resonates with you, participants are encouraged to schedule a private consultation in advance. The first twenty minutes are free of charge.
"The canyons have become such a regular part of my life, it is hard to imagine not coming out here each year."

"Those storm clouds above the canyon rim are strangely responsive to what we are doing out here."
