"I have been a seeker and I still am.

But I stopped asking the books and the stars.

I started listening to the teachings of my Soul." ~Rumi~

What if the shift, the new reality everyone has been talking about, has already happened and you are not recognizing it because most everything still looks the same to you? When are the big events going to happen that are supposed to signal the shift, like fireworks in the sky, wars ending, spiritual beings arriving and when the heck is everyone going to start walking around like “bliss bunnies”?

We believe the shift has happened! We believe YOU have the wisdom within!
NOW is the time to start living it!

NOW is the time to Experience ~ Assimilate ~ Integrate the sacred energies that are emerging, to bring the shift into the physical reality.  With cultivated awareness we can apply these principles to our everyday living.

                                       “You are the ONES you have been waiting for.”  (Hopi elders)

A Vision Quest is a time of inner contemplation; a place of connection to heaven and earth and opening to your inner knowing. Here we learn how to be okay while being out of our comfort zone, learning to trust yourSELF and your connection to the Divine. A Vision Quest is about finding your OWN truth. What is your vision? What are you truly seeking? Why are you here on the planet at this time? What is your life’s purpose? What type of relationship with the Divine suits you?  From this new perspective we begin to live our lives according to this TRUTH.

The Vision Quest presents us with unique experiences through discussions, interactions with unseen energies and with nature. Then we have an opportunity to open our hearts to the Vision of our life and being, the blending of our physical and spiritual journeys.  In our communion with heaven and earth we are empowered to move forward, not waiting for anything or anyone but knowing our truth and being able to live it.

The invitation to be a part of this Vision Quest is also an invitation for you to experience Flossie and Gary’s home, Questhaven Retreat in southern California just north of San Diego between Escondido and Encinitas. We could not have visualized a more perfect setting for this experience than the paradise in which we live. Questhaven is a 640 acre “Nature Cathedral” founded in 1940 by the clairvoyant Christian Mystic Flower A Newhouse and her husband Lawrence. Her belief was that one of the best places to find enlightenment and connect with the Divine was through Nature. Questhaven has nature trails that run throughout the 640 acres that support all physical capabilities. There are also beautiful guest cottages and rooms that are comfortable, convenient and very affordable.

For additional deatils about the schedule, activities and sacred space we will be at click on Schedule and Activities tab above.

Accommodations & Meals:
The primary focus of this Vision Quest is on personal empowerment which means the knowing and living of our own truths. Choice and the responsibility in exercising our choices is a significant aspect of this empowerment. To further support this we have decided to offer some choices in how you pay or exchange energy for the Vision Quest at Questhaven.
• If you choose to stay at Questhaven and have meals here there is a set price of between $78 and $130 per day.
• If you stay off site there is a daily facilities use fee of $20;
• Complete options and pricing are explained by clicking on the Accommodations and Pricing tab above.

We will have 2 amazing Chefs supporting us with nourishing and nurturing meals, read more under Accommodations and Pricing tab.

** If you are able to, we recommend staying at Questhaven Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. The energies there are the most optimal we have experienced to support the Vision Quest process. We will begin each day early with activities geared to gather energy from the morning sun and conlcude our day in the evening as we prepare for the nightime integrations of our experience, there are some beautiful sunsets from the surrounding hills we will experience together. If you can avoid the time involved in coming and going not to mention the disruption to the process it would be more beneficial, of course if you aren't able to stay it will be fine we will be more aware of your pace of activities and energy. If you want to discuss this further please let us know.

Retreat Pricing:
Your next choice comes in how you pay or exchange energy for the retreat content itself. This new reality we have entered into requires that we each be consciously aware of the “energetic exchanges” in our lives and how we bring into balance what we receive and what we give in return. Therefore we have decided to not charge a set price for the retreat, beyond accommodations and meals, we will leave it up to each of you to decide for yourself what your "Love Offering" should be. No one will be excluded from this experience based on what they pay for it; we do have the right to say that only those who respect the policies of Questhaven and the protocols of the Vision Quest will be welcome, these are clarified under Registration, Protocols and Contact tab. We will be grateful for whatever you are able to share as your Love Offering with us, most importantly if you do it consciously.

After the Vision Quest, especially for those coming from out of the area, we are planning on offering some excursions to the Pacific Ocean, the Self-Realization Fellowship grounds and some other beautiful places around the area to help nourish our post Vision Quest experience; details are under the Schedule and Activities tab.

Something you might consider after reading what you need to from this website and if you feel you should participate, that you sit in the stillness and go deeper inside to open to you inner voice - listen to what you hear. If you still feel that you should be a part of the Vision Quest then register. AHHHHHH but there could be another voice - it might tell you that there isn't enough time, money or something else, that there are limitations to your participation. If this voice is speaking, then you might consider this as an opportunity to begin your Vision Quest right now by opening to the Infinite Creative Solutions that exist. One of these is to email us and let us help with some creative possibilities to overcome whatever limitations you are perceiving. One of the Vision Quest experiences is remembering that we are not alone, there are always others that might be able to assist us.

Our hearts are open and so is our hOMe. We look forward to sharing this sacred time and space with YOU.

In Divine Friendship & Love, Flossie & Gary
