More than a teacher, she serves as a keeper of the sacred container, guiding others into experiences that awaken remembrance, deepen self-awareness, and cultivate a life lived with reverence, reciprocity, and heart. Throughout this pilgrimage, Mary will guide the Medicine Wheel teachings, taking lead in the South and North directions. In the South we walk with Sachamama, who reminds us that true healing begins where separation ends. Just as Serpent moves with her belly resting upon the Earth, she teaches us the sacred gift of vulnerability—the courage to soften, to trust, and to become one with life for we cannot experience unity while protecting ourselves from it. Through the Seer's Rite, we'll begin to perceive the world through the eyes of The Beauty Way, discovering the bliss in joy and sorrow, ease and challenge, in the moments we celebrate and in every experience that has lovingly shaped who we are. Surrounded by the extraordinary Chakra Gardens of the Sacred Valley, we'll ceremonially cleanse and awaken each energy center, allowing the Earth herself to help restore balance, harmony, and wholeness within. In the North we are welcomed by Sawakentay, who awakens within us a holy longing to truly live. Here we remember that the purpose of life is life itself; that we were created for freedom, wonder, and wholehearted participation in the great unfolding of existence. We loosen the beliefs that have confined us, while planting the seeds of a future that is ready to be born through intention, trust, and courageous action. It is here that we receive the Wisdomkeeper's Rite, carrying forward the torch entrusted to us by the ancestors, communing with the spirits with respect. We become guardians of the teachings and the sacred experiences that reveal the joy of being fully alive. We discover that nothing is more holy than life itself, and that every mystery and every act of love becomes part of the wisdom we are called to carry with reverence. The North also invites us into the ancient principle of Keeping the Secret. As our awareness expands, we begin to recognize the patterns that weave through humanity, to sense the possibilities emerging before us, and to understand that true wisdom is never possessed, but faithfully tended. Some truths are meant to ripen in silence until the moment they can be received with an open heart. Like the ancestors before us, we become faithful keepers of the flame, carrying its light within our bones until the time comes to pass it lovingly to the next generation. Mary believes that the Medicine Wheel is not simply something we study, but something we become. Her greatest hope is that every pilgrim returns home carrying not only unforgettable memories of Peru, but a renewed relationship with the Earth, the lineage, the circle, and the luminous truth of who they have always been. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63dad938690a44391d216016/c626f959-0b71-4714-a926-1d4340a75492/IMG_6009.jpg Events - "Yo Crezco" Give Back, Connect, Grow - Erin Robinson - Medicine Wheel Facilitator With a heart devoted to service and authentic connection, Erin believes that the deepest healing often unfolds in the subtle moments of being fully seen, fully accepted, and fully present. She is passionate about creating spaces where courage is met with compassion, where community becomes family, and where every explorer feels supported as they step into the next chapter of their journey. Through her strong presence and devotion to these sacred teachings, she reminds us that the greatest leaders are often those who first learn to walk with an open heart. Erin holds the sacred container of the Medicine Wheel while leading the way through the West and East. In the West, Otorongo invites us into one of the most profound and transformative passages of the Medicine Wheel. Here we activate the Luminous Warrior, discovering that true courage is not found in fighting life, but in loving it enough to meet it fully. She carries us through the rainbow, beyond death, and into the transformational cycles of our becoming. We deepen our understanding of No Back Doors, understanding how our greatest fear is standing in our full power, giving us the opportunity to meet life with an open heart and unwavering trust instead. Like Jaguar, we learn to move quietly through both shadow and light, recognizing that that every moment is a gift that all of humanity shares. Through the Daykeeper's Rite, we become faithful guardians of the lineage, carrying forward the sacred prayers, ceremonies, and healings entrusted to us with reverence and integrity, as we are living expressions of them. The East is the direction of dawn, where possibility rises with the first light and destiny calls us forward. Walking with Eagle, we rise above limitation to see our lives from a higher perspective, remembering that our future is shaped not by fate, but by the inspirational choices we courageously make each day. Through the Creator's Rite, we reclaim the sacred gift of free will, understanding that it is our responsibility to consciously create a life rooted in purpose, authenticity, and love. The clear quartz, our anchor stone of the East, reminds us to become clear channels for Spirit, allowing our vision to guide us with confidence, clarity, and trust as we step fully onto the path that has always been ours to walk. Erin teaches the most empowering moments occur when we stop running from ourselves and courageously choose to walk our destiny path. Her deepest hope is that every pilgrim returns home carrying not only the strength of the Jaguar, but the confidence to walk without fear, honor their lineage, and embrace each new beginning with trust, authenticity, and love. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63dad938690a44391d216016/4bb20b24-9b3b-4c27-b6e8-d16a4ab7c9da/IMG_6252+%281%29.jpg Events - "Yo Crezco" Give Back, Connect, Grow - Lee Burris - Sacred Witness Lee has walked the path of the Andean Medicine Wheel with a deep reverence for Spirit, mystery, and the unseen world. As a gifted medium, channel, and paranormal investigator, he approaches every experience with curiosity, discernment, and a profound respect for the sacred. As the Sacred Witness, his passion is welcoming others into a place where authentic connection can flourish, helping people discover their home community and a sense of belonging. Throughout the pilgrimage, Lee serves as a steady guardian of the sacred container, offering compassionate emotional support, helping maintain the energetic integrity of ceremonies and group experiences, and wisely holding space wherever it is needed. With a watchful eye and a heart attuned to the moments that often go unnoticed, he also captures the beauty of the pilgrimage through photography, preserving memories while allowing each participant to remain fully present in the experience. Lee believes that the unseen world is always inviting us into deeper relationship with Spirit, with one another, and with ourselves. His deepest intention is that every celebrant returns home carrying not only beautiful memories of Peru, but a renewed trust in their own intuition, a deeper connection to the sacred, and the profound knowing that they are forever held within the circle of life, love, and Spirit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63dad938690a44391d216016/f9273222-67f3-4cea-a7ab-d979c54575b5/perushaman.jpg Events - "Yo Crezco" Give Back, Connect, Grow - Q’ero Paq’o and Resident Shaman Rooted in the sacred traditions of the high Andes, our Andean paq'os and ceremonial guides carry the living wisdom of their ancestors with devotion and deep reverence for Pachamama. As keepers of these ancient traditions, they serve not only as ceremonial guides, but as bridges between the visible and unseen worlds, preserving the prayers, teachings, and sacred practices that have been lovingly passed from generation to generation. Throughout our pilgrimage, they will welcome us into the heart of Andean spirituality through ceremonies that cultivate remembrance, reciprocity, and right relationship with the living world. Around the sacred fire, we'll offer our prayers to Pachamama through a traditional Ayni Despacho ceremony, inviting new blessings into our lives. Those who feel called may also participate in an optional Wachuma (San Pedro) ceremony, a sacred plant medicine traditionally honored for opening the heart, deepening communion with nature, and revealing the profound unity between ourselves, the Earth, and Spirit. The sacred rivers of the Andes are the lifeblood of Pachamama, carrying the blessings of the Apus from the high mountains into the valleys below. During our traditional River Blessing, we'll offer our prayers to the living waters, releasing what has completed its journey while receiving the invitation to live with greater flow, trust, reciprocity, and grace. As the river never clings to what has already passed, we're reminded that healing is not found in holding on, but in allowing life to move freely through us. Our Andean ceremonial guides believe that the greatest teachings are not simply spoken, but experienced through right relationship with the mountains, the rivers, the plants, the ancestors, and the heart of Pachamama herself. It is their hope that every Mesa Carrier leaves Peru protecting these ceremonies as a living seed planted within the soul, growing into a lifelong remembrance that the Earth is alive, Spirit is always speaking, and every step walked in Ayni becomes a blessing that continues long after the pilgrimage has ended. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63dad938690a44391d216016/b6789e99-1a41-46d3-893a-4c921aa5c9c6/perufacility.jpg Events - "Yo Crezco" Give Back, Connect, Grow - Get Your Tickets! “Yo Crezco” Give Back, Connect, Grow Retreat is an all-inclusive stay.

After booking your flight, make sure to plan for ground transportation to and from the retreat by reserving the round trip charter bus below. There are no public shuttles that service The Mountain area. Check out this round trip transit service that we’ve pre-booked for you! For an extra fee, get a seat on the “I Shine!” shuttle van from the Asheville Regional Airport straight to The Mountain retreat! There will only be one charter ride available for all passengers. The exact time of departure TBD with a tentative plan to leave the airport by 4:00 pm EST on Thur and leave the retreat by 2:00 pm EST on Sun. In an attempt to accommodate everyone flying in, we will be in contact with all attendees before making the final decision on departure time. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is the second closest option for long distance travelers, but requires a three hour Uber, rental car, or taxi service to The Mountain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63dad938690a44391d216016/48db8e4a-0117-4350-9d1c-dfd4c24ad428/ll.jpg Events - “I Shine!” Inner Fire Retreat - Pack Up Your stay with us will include 3 nights, 2 full days, and 2 half days filled with varying activities that will continue, rain or shine. Check the weather before your stay to ensure you pack appropriate clothing for hot days and cool nights. You might like a swimsuit to wear during the sweat bath or for cool dips in the lake at the base of the mountain. Bring comfortable shoes built for daily hikes, a journal, pen, and skin protectants such as sunscreen and bug spray. A flashlight might come in handy, as well as your personal toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrush, etc). There is also a Mountain Store that could be of help in the event of forgotten items. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63dad938690a44391d216016/b8b4f23e-ef2e-4504-b7cb-24fc8b4b75e3/IMG_0960.jpg Events - “I Shine!” Inner Fire Retreat - Extend Your Stay After the final ceremony, you may feel the burning desire to explore The Mountain further on your own or check out the surrounding areas.
