Big Sur Wilderness Experience: Esalen Institute
Esalen is the trailhead to one of the most spectacular mountainous coastlines in the world. With the Big Sur wilderness as the primary teacher, participants will explore the beauty of this alive and wild coast, from ancient redwood-forested canyons to dramatic coastal beaches, from rugged rocky mountains to the soft grassy slopes of the Big Sur hills. Drawing from nature and various experiential awareness practices, individuals will be encouraged to open both to the natural world and to the landscapes of their inner world. It is said that Big Sur is not just a place but a state of mind. This wilderness experience seeks to merge mind and place, then to embody what is learned.

On the Huxleys, Gordon Wasson, Terence McKenna, Esalen, Psychedelics, 2012 & Mind Control
A video explaining my latest short article on How Darwin, Huxley, and the Esalen Institute launched the 2012 and psychedelic revolutions -- and began one of the largest mind control operations in history. Located at:
This video is the first to reveal the background origins of the Esalen institute through Aldous and Julian Huxley, both grandson's of Charles Darwin's Bulldog Sir. Thomas Henry Huxley. The Huxleys helped found the Esalen institute to promote Julian Huxley's eugenics, humanism, transhumanism and feminism to manipulate middle class Americans into following their agenda through psychedelics and the new age movement.
This is not to say that psychedelics or entheogens don't have value, it just means that devious people have usurped them and created a false movement to fool people into thinking that they've completed their task of freeing their minds.
As McKenna says in one quote found shortly after we film this video:
This was in '67 when I was a sophomore in college. The interest in altered states of consciousness came simply from, I don't know whether I was a precocious kid or what, but I was very early into the New York literary scene, and even though I lived in a small town in Colorado, I subscribed to the Village Voice, and there I encountered propaganda about LSD, mescaline, and all these experiments that the late beatniks were involved in. Then I read The Doors of Perception and Heaven and Hell, and it just rolled from there. That was what really put me over. ***I respected Huxley as a novelist, and I was slowly reading everything he'd ever written, and when I got to The Doors of Perception I said to myself, There's something going on here for sure.***
~ Terence McKenna - From Mushrooms, Elves, and Magic.

ESALEN SHUTS DOWN
Imagine you are 12 miles away from Big Sur California and then turned around by a road closure where your accommodation provider gave you 2 hours notice about the problem and the day before flying down to CA had advised that all was well with the roads!
Hundreds of us, many who flew 30 + hours to get to Big Sur from places like London & Switzerland did not know or were warned about the potential of road closures. All of us received an email the day before check in that all was OK to fly and drive in - 2 hours prior to check in we receive a generalized email from Esalen sharing that all ocean road access has been denied - the disappointing part is that no options or explanations was offered. Most of us calling in never got an answer - I know of some people being brought to tears.
For the future it is suggested that Esalen create an emergency plan that can help stranded clients to find alternate accommodation options versus leaving them in the dark to fend for themselves - not even one such email has been received since.
I got through to Esalen after the fourth 1/2 hour on hold attempt and was told that we were definitely on our own, that Esalen is a NPO and would not be able to help us.
I got the distinct feeling that their staff had no idea what was going one, that they were definitely not empowered to offer solutions and that Esalen was doing us a great favor by generously refunding all of the monies we have already paid in good faith.
Actions always speak louder than words. To date no solutions actions received from Esalen, just one generalized email of advisement received 2 hours prior to check in time.

TOUCHING ESSENCE Esalen Massage Certification Training in Bali
EXPERIENCE THE BEAUTY & MAGIC OF BALI - INDONESIA
January 18 - February 12, 2015
With Ellen Watson & Robin Fann-Costanzo with Purnomo Diertno
Location: Mimpi Menjangan Resort
Learning the art of Esalen® Massage is an experience that often changes lives.
This unique form of bodywork has been developed over the last 50 years at Esalen Institute, Big Sur, CA. Esalen® Massage is known for its long, integrating strokes, and for creating deep relaxation that supports the body natural ability to self-heal.
Your study of massage will be complemented by daily meditation, chanting, yoga, chi gong, ecstatic dance, and other moving meditation practices. You will experience in your own body the qualities of aliveness and flowing presence central to this method. The process of self-exploration is a key element, grounding this practice in the experience of your own body, thereby transforming mere technique into a true healing art. The atmosphere and culture of Bali fit well with our intention to teach this method as a path toward healing. The Balinese word for foreigner translates as 'guest', this simple expression conveying the warmth, openness, and beauty which the Balinese embody in every aspect of their lives. As guests of the Balinese during this time, we will have our weekends free to explore the high mountains and hidden beaches of this magical island, absorbing both its tropical beauty and the grace of its people.

Sykes Hot Springs
A trail run of the Pine Ridge Trail from Big Sur to Sykes Hot Springs in the Ventana Wilderness. On the return trip, I took the Terrace Creek Trail (old growth redwoods and cascading stream) and Coast Ridge Road (excellent views of the Pacific Ocean and Ventana Double Cone). Total mileage was 22 miles.
on the road... adventuring into Big Sur!
Howdy friends... quick update from Big Sur! Sorry we have not checked in, in a few weeks. We had some work to do on the website and smartphone app... that is almost taken care of and we are back to the scouting part of the adventure... finding inspiring people, places and things along the way!

Big Sur in 1956: Deetjens Inn and Nepenthe
On our trip up the coast in 1956, we visited these two sites, both of which are rich with history. The website for Deetjen's (deetjens.com) tells the story of the original owners, Helmuth Deetjen and his wife Helen. We actually met Helen during our visit - and she was just as described, a large figure of a woman reclining in the drawing room of the hotel and chatting with visitors.
Nepenthe, now a restaurant, has a similar storied history including a brief period when it was owned by Orson Welles and Rita Hayworth. (nepenthebigsur.com)

Rejuvenate yourself through SoulCollage™ at Esalen
Join Mariabruna Sirabella and meet SoulCollage® enthusiasts from around the world at the Esalen Institute. Both weekend and weeklong SoulCollage® courses are offered semi-annually at Esalen, Big Sur, California USA. READ MORE about SoulCollage® Esalen courses at LEARN MORE about Mariabruna's schedule of workshops, retreats and Facilitator Trainings at CE credit for MFTs and LCSWs.
Beginners and veterans of SoulCollage® are welcome. The SoulCollage® process is based on the work of C.G. Jung, James Hillman, psychosynthesis, Gestalt practices, and more.
SoulCollage® fosters community internally and externally. It shows us how to befriend our inner parts, and facilitates authentic connection with others. This level of respectful and non-judgmental sharing through images leaves an imprint on the heart.
The more we practice the SoulCollage® process, the more our innate creativity will unfold in all aspects of our lives. We become co-creators on many levels. Cooperation takes the place of competitiveness; feminine energy rises to balance masculine energies. We learn the value of listening to many perspectives, both internally as our many personality parts state their needs (and gripes), and externally as the needs (and gripes) of other persons and other nations are listened to and honored. These are critical pieces of the new paradigm and of this practice.
SoulCollage® is deceptively simple; no special artistic talent is needed. And still it can jostle and wake up a part of the human soul which this dying paradigm has ignored or minimized: our creative core. Arising in the new paradigm must be the compassionate, heart energy of creative souls.
Imagine spending a creative week or weekend beginning to collage (or continuing to collage) your own deck of imaginal cards. You will browse through piles of images and find those that call to you. They could be images that represent some of the many guides, allies, and challengers active in your soul. Using these images you will collage cards that depict your personality parts, your archetypal guides, your energetic companion animals, and even some of the sentient beings that have loved, taught, and challenged you. Along with time for creating cards there will be time to gather in small groups and speak from your images. You will be surprised by the wisdom that bubbles up from your deep soul when you step imaginatively into an image and speak to a question from this new perspective. A supportive community listening as witnesses and scribing your words will help make this a memorable experience.
Let your intuition and your passion free your inner voices so that your Inner Wisdom may share its gifts with you. Images, music, movement, and group process will serve as vehicles to fertilize your creativity. The images you create will go home with you and serve your life purpose in numerous unexpected ways. The key to our life purpose is best found in the imaginal, circular language of the soul, in the renewable mysterious spring of meaning and passion that gives impulse to our actions. Your SoulCollage® cards can speak directly from that inner source as you learn how to consult them. Your wisdom can spontaneously bubble up through their answers. These images can become lifelong companions, trustworthy mirrors of your soul, and provide guidance, support, and inspiration as much in daily life as in crucial moments of change and transition.
Mariabruna Sirabella, M.S., LMFT has been training SoulCollage® Facilitators in both the USA and abroad since 2007, and she is now our Senior Trainer, having closely studied and collaborated with Seena Frost, M.Div., M.A. for almost two decades. Mariabruna’s SoulCollage® Retreats and Trainings are often multi-cultural and, when needed, have been translated, for example, in Bulgarian, German, Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian. She is also the Translation Coordinator for SoulCollage Inc.
Mariabruna is Adjunct Faculty at JFK University, California and has a Laurea in Communication and Performing Arts from Bologna University, Italy and a Masters in Counseling from CSUS, California. After many years of private practice, Mariabruna now offers online consultations on various aspects of the SoulCollage® process and on archetypal patterning and spiritual development. In her first career as a researcher in Theater Anthropology, she spent many years in the tribal areas of Southern India studying eastern spirituality, traditional theater, tribal rituals, and healing trance dances.
