"She is a wonderful teacher and human being, critical thinker, sensitive, creative. She goes out of the parameters of "normal" to take us to feel and wake up intuition, extremely grateful for my training of 200 hours"

"Thank you Maria, for creating a collective space of beautiful women in which we can silence the inner judgment, the constant and implacable criticism of us towards ourselves. With this silence and the experiences that you offer us, I was able to expand the awareness of my body, of myself, of my own beauty, being lovingly and happily accompanied by others, looking at them and accompanying them in their processes. Thanks always to all, big hugs and infinite blessings."
- Luz Elena Langle Gomez
"Come here to know the knowledge and love of Maria has been the right medicine that I was looking for. Her retreats change your life in every way, connect you, elevate you and open your wings so that you never doubt yourself and you encourage yourself to fly by yourself. If you are reading this, share the retreats of this site, they are incredibly healing. I have no way to thank Maria and her husband Alan, but I know I can write and take the word that what they do for the earth is what your heart needs".
