Grief’s Song: Cycles of the Heart, A Summer Retreat
Please Join Kate Mulheron, Founder of Earth Ways Yoga and special guest, Jay Kraemer, LAC and intuitive musician for a 4-day guided Retreat Journey at our retreat home for over 14 years at Joyful Journey Hot Springs, for a very special retreat time July 24th-27th to honor your heart’s path, your heart’s calling, your heart’s healing: Grief’s Song: Healing Your Wounded Heart!!
Come explore the energy of SUMMER in the desert at Joyful Journey Hot Springs and the Element of Fire. Follow the rhythms of your heart and how to find balance and harmony in the summers journey of your heart’s calling. There are four officials of the FIRE MERIDIAN CHANNELS : Heart, Small Intestine, Heart Protector, and Triple Heater, the emotion is joy and the color is red , through the movement of Earth Ways Yoga, meditation and self study of the acupuncture and spirit of the points to help you deepen into these channels!! The only element that needs 4 meridians to guide the complexity of ones heart, the great mystery of this life is to understand the meaning of ones heart, as every time you think you do, another lesson, another teaching , wowza, it may feel like its back to the beginning! of your healing! But it is truly never back to the beginning its just a deeper understanding of ones self to rebuild once again, a little stronger and with more resolve . This season can be about staying on track with your mission in life and finding space to balance your well being in the heat of the summers light!!
This is a retreat to acknowledge your walk with grief, As a human no one gets out of this life without a wounded heart. It is apart of the path of being human, but how we work with grief, through our whole beingness can be an art form, it takes great patience and perseverance to walk truly in the fire of ones own awakening to hopefully find more harmony and acceptance , which takes TIME. Grief and her song has wailed through your very beating heart which has defined the creation of how you walk in this world, your relationship with grief, what body language patterns you have accumulated in this life as you explore your relationship with grief and the tools it takes to move grief though ones being!!
LOVE and JOY is the beingness of the heart but when our human complexity of healing the experiences you have had in this life becomes shut down or too raw to hold we create boundaries and shields for protection, and when you feel you are ready to be with your particular stage of grief you have been holding there are tools to support you.. What works for one person for sure is not going to work for another, we are unique individuals that it takes great grace , walking carefully through the mind field of ones emotions to get to resolve., hopefully. We are complex beings, us humans, but we do the best we can as walking a path of the wounded hearted!
As those of you that have come to expect at retreat, yes we will Honor Dialy Directions, Learn Circle, practice Earth Ways Yoga , live music, ear acupuncture hot springs, and study the 5 Element Meridian System, (Fire Element, which is all about the HEART) What do we know about the Fire Element, it takes 4 MERIDIANS to hold the space of our complex heart and the seeking of heart is JOY, but to get to joy means we must clear what is in the way or the heaviness of heart ( no matter hold OLD your grief is).
*Please note that this is a sober and technology free event. To honor the space, community and ceremonies we are asking that attendees abstain from alcohol and drugs two days prior to retreat and throughout the duration of the retreat.
Thank you and we look forward to sharing this time with you!
Kate and Jay

When the Soul Whispers – Silent Retreat with Debbie and Dian
Monday October 27, 2025 – Friday October 31, 2025
Our daily life is full of electronics, zoom meetings, job and home duties, noise, and not enough time for taking care of ourselves, much less becoming quiet enough to hear our inner voice. This retreat has been created and is now offered by two Deepak Chopra-trained and certified Vedic Master Educators. They have realized the joy of hearing the soul whispers of the inner voice through experiences of not using the outer voice for several days.
Join us under the watchful gaze of the sacred, majestic Sangre de Cristo Mountains in Colorado for the spaciousness and quietude of silence. You will enjoy your silence while practicing movement, soaking in the healing hot springs pools, being in nature, and listening to and experiencing ancient wisdom teachings. The shorter, darker days of autumn energetically create the perfect time and space to journey inward in silence, so that you can hear your soul’s yearnings.
Are you ready to nurture your body, mind and soul with a few days of quiet? Are you ready to become intimate with your soul’s deepest longings? Are you ready to hear the Whispers of Your Soul?
For more information and to register please visit: https://soulwhispers.my.canva.site You may also contact Debbie at Debbie@debbiecassidy.com or Dian at dian@dianshirley.com
