Don’t Miss This! Cutting Edge Process for Trauma, Anxiety & Stress

Most of you know that I’ve been doing my own personal spiritual healing work for over 40 years (yikes!) since my mother’s death in 1978. I think I’ve pretty much done all the different types of spiritual and emotional healing that’s out there (including firewalking, breathwork, all the 50+ modalities we do at Sedona Soul Adventures). So let me tell you how exciting it was for me to discover Havening and then for us to be so lucky as to have a fantastic Practitioner who does this amazing work as part of our Soul Adventures!

Havening is a simple, yet incredibly powerful technique that has been hailed as one of the most dramatic of current breakthroughs to help people lead happier, healthier lives.

Havening was researched and developed by a medical doctor, Dr. Ronald Ruden and his twin dentist brother, Dr. Steven Ruden. They spent years researching what happens in the brains of people while undergoing successful energy therapies like EMDR and EFT.

Havening is a tool, not a therapy, however, it can be extremely therapeutic. Havening is designed to effectively disconnect a traumatic stimulus from where it gets activated in our brains. The act of Havening touch induces receptivity in the brain, introduces some distractions, and in the process, sets off an electrochemical chain reaction which can lead to the permanent removal (in medical terms, “depotentiation”) of the receptors in the brain that hold onto trauma. After Havening, you may or may not remember the memory or the event. However, if you do remember it, the traumatic response to it is usually no longer present.

And the great part is, you don’t have to understand any of that, you just do this simple technique and it works!

In this Masterclass, you will:

  • Learn a simple to do, yet profound, self-care approach to calming and refurbishing your nervous system, especially if you have ever experienced any kind of trauma or anxiety or deep stress.
  • Discover how to bring yourself back into balance, whether it be from waking in the middle of the night with a scary dream/thought, your boss has just chewed you out unfairly at work (worse in front of co-workers), or you have embarrassed yourself by saying or doing something you regret.
  • Receive a brief lesson in neurobiology: why trauma memories are so “sticky,” why they can get re-ignited literally in a split second, and how to mend those old wounds.
  • Have an opportunity to practice Havening on a topic of your choice privately.

The major benefits of Havening are:

  • Practicing Havening allows you to erase and replace traumatic memories at source in your nervous system. It is sweet, deep, gentle and regenerative.
  • You can benefit from practicing Havening without having to disclose to others what is bothering you — you know, the kind of thing you’ve stuffed, kept deep inside, that’s been eating at you and about which you never told anyone.
  • Havening literally gives you a place to find a safe haven, a refuge, a sanctuary within yourself, from your anxiety or traumatic memories.

It’s so simple, but it’s so powerful! It’s an important part of the retreats we do here at Sedona Soul Adventures, because almost everyone has some sort of trauma, stress or anxiety in their lives and it’s part of the release processes that we do. In this class, you have the opportunity to to experience it for yourself.

In the class, to learn the technique, we will begin by doing this process together as a group with everyone on the call. Don’t worry, you can keep your issue totally private if you wish. We will follow up with as many volunteers as we can fit into our time together and you will be amazed at how quickly and completely this process works!

You will love my interview with Christian de la Huerta on
Meeting the Masters

If you’ve been on a Soul Adventure then you know how powerful breath work can be. It can heal your body, release trauma, resolve grief, allow you to see visions, connect with your High Self, the list goes on and on. I first experienced the transformational power of breathwork in October of 1989 and during my interview with my guest on this week’s Meeting The Masters, Christian de la Huerta, we discovered we both started doing breathwork at the same time!

Christian is a leading voice on spirituality in the LGBTQ community and his book “Coming Out Spiritually” has impacted hundreds of thousands of lives.

I had never met Christian before, so speaking with him was so much fun, especially to discover that we share so much in common. Not only a passion for breathwork, but we both love Sacred Travel and helping couples heal their relationships through spiritual transformation.

Watch the interview

We talk about it all, everything from his family’s escape from Cuba under Castro to the magic and power of the breath. And we take a deep dive into how to express your true and authentic power which is the subject of his latest book. This is a must watch interview.

Be sure to check out Christian de la Huerta’s New Book, Awakening the Soul Of Power.”

Before her Soul Adventure, Melinda felt “completely lost” – after her Soul Adventure, “I feel hopeful for my future and I feel joy again”

Melinda’s story is such a perfect example of what happens during a Soul Adventure. We first use processes (such as Havening) to clear out the trauma, stress, anxiety and gunk that is affecting you. And once we clear that out, we use other processes to bring you back into connection on all the levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

Can you imagine going through all the loss Melinda went through in a year? Both of her parents, a long term relationship, her home, her dog, her Art Studio, her community and a job she loved. Oh my gosh, that’s enough to knock anybody for a loop. I’m surprised she had enough strength to pick up the phone and call us.

But see, that’s what happens – our souls tell us, “You have to do something,” “There’s hope” and “Reach out.”

I’m so glad she did! I met Melinda when she first came and, of course, her life force energy was showing all this loss and pain. As she says, she was feeling “overwhelmed” and “completely lost.”

Isn’t it incredible that after a few short days, all of that was turned around? After her Soul Adventure she says, “I feel hopeful for my future.” And here’s the really important one — “I feel joy again.”

Are you feeling joy in your life? This has been a difficult year to feel a lot of joy. But the secret is to not allow what’s going on outside of you to affect what’s going on inside of you. That’s the biggest thing our people are telling us they’re experiencing – this new found peace and a new way of experiencing life. Plus, as Melinda says, we give you “lots of tools to continue the journey of growth.” Because that’s the most important thing – that you’re having real transformation that lasts.

Give us a call and speak to one of our Angel Guides. They’ll begin the process of digging deep to discover what are the blocks that are holding you back from having the life or relationship of your dreams? Those blocks are different for everybody, the cause is different and how they show up is different. Let’s start the process.

Remember, there’s no cost or obligation and you can do it in-Sedona or from the comfort of your own home.

Only a few spots left for our Return To Egypt Tour
February 13-26, 2021 – 100% Refundable

I’m getting so excited about the Egypt trip! I haven’t been anywhere for so long!

debra-pyramid_sphinx-2015

Luckily, unlike here in the United States, the COVID numbers in Egypt are very low. Their tourist season is underway and in fact, one of my friends was just there with a group and had a fabulous time! But it was excruciatingly hot, so I’m so glad that we go in February, when it’s nice and warm, but not so terribly hot.

Linda-Hallberg-Egypt-1

We go to all the must-see places:

  • The Great Pyramid (where we’ll have 2 hours of private time for ceremony just for our group)
  • The Sphinx
  • Karnak
  • Luxor
  • Abu Simbel

egypt-group

But we’ll also be going to places the average tourist doesn’t always see:

  • Isis Temple at Philae
  • Temple of Abydos
  • Hathor Temple at Dendera
  • Horus Temple at Edfu
  • The Osirion

King Tut Mask

And this year we have special tickets to see:

  • The Tomb of King Tut in the Valley of the Kings
  • The Tomb of Seti I in the Valley of the Kings
  • The Tomb of Queen Nefertari in the Valley of the Queens!

Plus, we’ll be doing ceremonies and meditations, and discussing the alternative theories of who built the Pyramids, who built the Sphinx (and when) and why are there carvings of a helicopter, a tank and a submarine in the walls of the Temple of Abydos?

Having two hours of private time just for our group inside the Great Pyramid for meditation and ceremonies is beyond belief!

And to go on a journey like this with other like-minded travelers – it’s just the icing on the cake. Don’t be concerned if you don’t have a companion to travel with – our groups are typically in love with each other within 48 hours, making friends that last a lifetime.

One Thing You Can Start Doing Right Now To Save Your Relationship

We have so many couples coming to us right now. We see it all the time – the pandemic has had a huge impact on relationships. What we’re seeing is, people are really “getting it” that life is so short, it’s too short to be living a life that’s not making you happy and it’s certainly too short to be in a relationship that’s not nurturing you.

Couples are coming to us as a last ditch effort and I have to say, we are having astounding results! I love it so much when we help people really figure out:

  1. The problems we “thought” we were having, are not the problems we’re really having.
  2. I thought the problems we were “really” having were her fault (or his fault, depending upon who the speaker is). Now, I see the problems are the result of our past and our unhealed wounds.
  3. When we heal our past and our unhealed wounds, we come back into love and I love her (him) even more than I thought!

And of course, you don’t know how to heal your past or your unhealed wounds, you might not even know what they are!

If you’re having trouble in your relationship, I really want to encourage you to look into doing a Couples Soul Adventure, either here in Sedona or At Home. It can change everything. For right now, I want to gift you with this video about ONE Thing You Can Start Doing Right Now To Save Your Relationship. It’s very simple. It’s not easy for everyone, but it is very simple. I hope this helps:

As I say in the video, if you are constantly giving yourself permission to say nasty stuff to your partner, you are on the road to Splittsville. And no one wants to go there.

But sometimes, telling yourself (or having me tell you) to just “stop it” isn’t enough. Usually with most couples there’s a history of hurts, sometimes there’s a lack of trust. Or worse, you’ve gotten yourself into a vicious cycle that you just can’t seem to get yourselves out of.

That’s where a Couples Soul Adventure comes in. We’ll spend time with you, digging deep to start the process of figuring out what’s holding you back from the relationship of your dreams, then we’ll custom design the perfect Soul Adventure for the two of you. Private sessions with our Master Practitioners are designed to take you from where you are to where you want to be.

Did you know Sedona Soul Adventures has been named to Guidedoc’s “Best Marriage Retreats in the US” for 4 years in a row? 2017 – 2020. Because we are the best. Many of our practitioners have been working with couples for over 20 years.

I love it so much when people like Carl and his wife come to us and have their lives and relationships changed forever for the better.

Give us a call and speak to one of our Angel Guides. They’ll begin the process of digging deep to discover what are the blocks that are holding you back from having the life or relationship of your dreams? Those blocks are different for everybody, the cause is different and how they show up is different. Let’s start the process.

Remember, there’s no cost or obligation and you can do it in-Sedona or from the comfort of your own home.

Call us today at 1-877-204-3664 (US and Canada). For our friends outside the US and Canada, call 01 928-204-5988 or Click here and we’ll call you.

“The Ennegram and Relationships” – Saturday Masterclass 9 am Pacific

In last week’s Masterclass, we learned all about the Enneagram, what it is, what number you are, and exactly what that means. In our next Masterclass, we’re going to explore The Enneagram in Relationships. And we will do it with our incredible Master Practitioner, Robin Cameron, who I consider to be one of the finest Practitioners and teachers on the subject!

In my opinion, the Enneagram is the most amazing way to find out who you are and who you are with other people. It’s so perfect for discovering the best ways to interact (and how not to interact) with all the relationships in your life, whether it be your spouse or lover, friends, parents, your boss or your employees, even your children.

If you weren’t on last week, that’s no problem, just take the test (see below) before this Saturday. You can also listen to the recording of last week’s Enneagram Part I.

If you haven’t already signed up for our Masterclasses, it’s not too late for you to join us for all 20 sessions, or you can just get them one at a time (and always have access to the recordings). For these two classes on the Enneagram, we’re going to give you both classes for the price of one (if you decide to do the single session). Once you’ve signed up, you can listen to the recording from last week’s Masterclass.

I’m giving you the link to take the Enneagram test for free. If you’re attending the Masterclass, be sure to do this before Saturday, so that you know what number you are before the class starts. The test only takes about 10 minutes. Even if you’re not attending, I think you’ll find this to be fascinating. I devote a large part of my book (“The Journey To Happy – How Embracing The Concept That Nothing Is Wrong Can Transform Your Life”) to the Enneagram and how it impacts you in every area of your life.

Important Note for Taking the Test: If you are over the age of 25 and you find yourself stuck on a question, answer it as you would have at the age of 25.

Watch my interview with Dr. John Gray (Mars/Venus) about what men need and what women need

This was one of the most fun and unusual of my Meeting the Masters interviews. You know Dr. John Gray from “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus.” Did you know that book was the #1 Best Selling book of the 1990’s!!

This was my second interview with John and he gives so much wonderful information about how to have a healthy, loving relationship.

Watch the interview

We also talk a lot in the interview about Estrogen and Testosterone, and little things you can do to raise those levels in each. There are actually things we can say and do for each other to restore the balance.

This is a truly fascinating and powerful interview that every couple should watch together.

Laura says, “My trip to Peru was a life altering experience. My heart has expanded to new levels. I am so open and the feeling is other worldly.”

“My trip to Peru was a life altering experience thanks to the efforts of Debra as well as an amazing group of sacred travelers. The universe is such a powerful place. I find it truly amazing how much coordination and dedication it takes to have so many pieces come together to create such a perfect moment in my life. I feel blessed to have been a part of that moment in time as it opened a whole new portal in my life. I cannot begin to express my gratitude. This is an excerpt of an email I sent to one of my best friend after the trip: I laughed. I cried. I was awed. I experienced new dimensions. I felt love and gave love. My gratitude is endless.

I feel fortunate to have experienced the Andes Mountains and people. My heart has expanded to new levels. I am so open and the feeling is other worldly. I have made amazing friends. The group, the leaders and the guide were all amazing teachers. I cannot wait to share everything with you.” – Laura McConnell

This is what happens when you go with us to Machu Picchu and Peru. It’s so much more than just seeing the sites — it’s about really connecting with these amazing places and connecting with that Highest Part of yourself in these places. It’s indescribably delicious, as the old commercial used to say.

I want to talk to you today about something that you would think nobody should have to say, but evidently it needs to be said because I see this out there all the time. Here it is: 

stop saying nasty stuff

If you want healthier, happier relationships, you need to stop saying nasty stuff to people you love.

I’m sure you’re sitting there thinking, “Duh, Debra, everyone knows that,” and okay, maybe everyone knows it, but is everyone abiding by that? Not from what I see. 

Think about it. What do we see on TV all the time?

Reality shows get bigger ratings the nastier the people are, especially if they’re plotting against each other.  

People constantly watch the Kardashians being nasty with each other and talking trash about other people.

But the biggest thing I see over and over again – and it breaks my heart – is to see, hear or be told about the nasty stuff that families say to each other and the nasty stuff that couples say to each other. 

Think about it. These are the people that are supposed to be the foundation of love in your life and you’re saying nasty stuff to them? And I’m not talking about them saying nasty stuff to you, you don’t have control over that (send them this video and maybe it will help). I’m talking about the person who has the control here and that’s YOU!

happens on both sides

You have control over what stuff comes out of your mouth and whether it’s nasty or not. And I would be willing to bet that if there have been nasty exchanges that there has been nasty stuff said on both sides, so let’s just focus on the person who has the control here, and that person is YOU! 

At this point, let’s define what I mean by “nasty stuff.” I have to say my definition is very, very broad. Because by definition, anything that isn’t coming from love, is negative, not pleasant, not good and not helpful for your relationship. And then you have the next level down, which is the really nasty stuff, where you’re calling each other names, you’re telling the other person what’s wrong with them and generally saying stuff which makes them feel bad. 

Let’s get really honest about why you are doing this. Because you want them to be different. You want them to work harder or you want them to work less and spend more time with you, or you want them to spend more time with their friends, or you want them to spend less time with their friends… You are saying stuff because you think you want them to be different than they are. 

And you’re telling yourself that you’re just trying to help them, and I’m sure part of that is true. But I want to tell you what I know after 20 years of being a divorce attorney and over 17 years of working with couples – when you are constantly criticizing or complaining to your partner, a family member or a friend, or telling them what to do or saying nasty stuff to them, you are killing intimacy. You are killing the one thing you say you want – which is love and connection. 

I know what you’re saying – “I have to tell him what to do, he’s a child, this entire household would collapse if I left him to his own devices” – and I will tell you, that kind of thinking is killing your relationship. 

And I get it. I grew up and got married during the time when lots of therapists were saying, “Get it all out, don’t hold back, say what’s on your mind.” And I gave myself permission to say all kinds of nasty stuff because I thought I was “airing things out” and the stuff I was saying was, of course, “true” and I was just trying to help my soon-to-be ex-husband be a better person. 

Well, all the studies are now showing that the opposite is true. Saying nasty stuff, fighting, arguing, complaining and criticism is death to a relationship. Because it kills love, it kills the nurturing that we all hunger for. 

There are therapists who can watch you and your spouse interact for a short period of time and tell you with astonishing accuracy whether or not you’re headed for divorce. The #1 telling factor is – how do you treat each other? Are you nurturing? Are you friends? Or are you nasty and controlling? If you’re nasty and controlling, your relationship is on the road to Splitsville. 

So what’s the answer? It’s really simple, you have to: 

  1. Understand the nasty stuff is killing your relationship 
  2. Stop the nasty stuff 

That’s pretty easy, right? Well, as someone who gave myself permission for so many years to do this, I know it’s not easy. But that’s the key. Make the decision to stop giving yourself permission. 

Making that decision can change everything in your relationship.

We had a couple here just a few weeks ago, let’s call them Carol and Mike. She was telling us that she is an overachiever and her husband isn’t, and that bothers her. And her husband was saying he wanted more intimacy with his wife and to feel closer and more in love again. Which is interesting because most of the time with the clients who come to us, we find that it’s the woman who is asking for more intimacy, but here it was reversed. 

I went into the office to say hello to them during their orientation and during our 10 minutes together, she talked over him, interrupted him and corrected him 4 times. This was during 10 minutes of me just saying hello and asking them how they were feeling.

As I left the office, I said a special prayer for them because I had a bad feeling. And after their first day I checked in with their practitioners, which I don’t usually do. I discovered that in their Love Codes session, we discovered that his biggest Love Code is Words of Praise (you can learn more about the Love Codes in my video “Want to Fix Your Relationship?”), meaning that he needs Words of Praise to make him feel loved and really Nurtured. They both agreed she criticizes him constantly. And when she was asked if she could stop criticizing him and instead discuss things with him in a nice, positive way, she said she couldn’t, because she has to be honest and if the truth hurts, so be it.  

We found out that her biggest Love Code is Protection and she doesn’t feel protected by him because he doesn’t work as hard as she does and doesn’t do things the way she wants him to do them, so she doesn’t feel protected by him. 

Their next session was the Enneagram and we discovered the she, like me, is an Eight. Watch my videos on the Enneagram for more of an explanation, but briefly, unhealed Eights are the aggressors, always picking a fight. They think they’re right about everything and they don’t trust anyone. So here she needs Protection, that’s her Love Code, but she doesn’t trust anyone, including her husband, because he doesn’t do things the way she wants.  

He told us that he actually wants to protect her, but that every time he tried to do something he got criticized and it was never good enough. He had basically given up.     

So we have two people who know what the other one needs and one person is willing to give it to the other, but the other person isn’t willing to give it to the other because she feels like she’s right and she wants him to change. She is completely unwilling to change. Even worse, she believes that her criticism is the truth and that telling the truth is more important than nurturing her husband. 

And she’s right. As an attorney for 20 years, I can say that telling the truth is very important. But if it’s hurting the person you love, is it getting you what you want? The question becomes:

I spoke with their other practitioners and while progress was being made, Carol just wasn’t making that switch. She wasn’t getting it that she just has to stop saying nasty stuff to him. Mike was totally getting his part in all of this and he was having huge transformations. Things were getting better between them, but she was holding onto what she saw as her sacred duty to criticize him. 

And then, magic happened. She did her Breath Journey and in that session, her mother who had passed away a few years ago came to her in a vision. Her mother had been a very critical person, of course, that’s where Carol got it. She had been very critical of Carol, Carol’s father and her siblings all during her life. She came to Carol and apologized to her for being so critical, apologized that it made Carol feel so unsafe that she felt she needed protection.

She told Carol how much she loved her and how proud she was of her, something that had never happened while her mother was alive. She told her how sorry she was that she unknowingly “taught” Carol to do this and showed her how she was teaching this to her own children and how important it was to break this generational pattern. Carol told me that after this experience with her mother, she never felt so full of love before and so safe.  

But the best part was, she got it that she had to stop with the criticism. She said, “I just have to stop.” And it’s so funny, because all of her practitioners were telling her this and it wasn’t quite sinking in. But suddenly, her dead mother shows up in a breath journey and then she can hear it. 

See that’s how this stuff has to happen. This is how these transformations happen. It doesn’t work to have someone tell you something, you have to experience it and really take it in, down to your core. This is what I talk about when I say that our retreats work on all the levels.

If your relationship is having problems, take a look at how you talk to each other.

Do you speak lovingly to each other? 

Do you treat each other like friends? 

Or Do you give yourself permission to say nasty stuff? And remember, my definition of “nasty stuff” is anything not coming from love. 

Start talking nice for one week and see if it makes a difference. I think you might be amazed. 

I get it that maybe you’re in a situation where a lot has happened and there is anger, resentment and problems on both sides, that’s usually the case. The question is, what are you going to do about it? Try this and see what happens. 

But if there’s deeper stuff there, come to Sedona and do a Couples Retreat. We can help you discover your true needs, because a lot of people don’t even know for sure what they need and how to break through to the love that brought you together in the first place.  

If you’d like, go to SedonaRetreatGuide.com and get your complimentary copy of The Sedona Guide to Couples Retreats today. 

Or even better, if you’d like to talk to someone about doing a retreat that will turn your relationship around, call us at (928) 204-5988.

You can have the life AND the relationship you want – I know it.

“After 3 Years in the Darkest Part of My Life…”

I have to say, receiving messages like this just make me want to cry tears of joy:

When I first met Jhon, I was very concerned for him. His mother had come for a Soul Adventure and it completely transformed her life. She then wanted her son to do it and first I was concerned because when someone else wants another person to do an Adventure, it’s sometimes not a good idea. The person doing the Adventure has to really WANT to do the Adventure.

Jhon said he wanted to do it, but he was skeptical, because he had tried so many other things, including therapy, and nothing helped. As he says, he had just spent the past “3 years in the darkest part of my life, I felt backed into a wall and on a path to eternally living in pain.”

Can you imagine that kind of despair? To think you were going to be living in emotional pain for the rest of your life? I can imagine it, because that’s where I was over 20 years ago when I first came to Sedona and a lot of people who come to us are in varying degrees of this kind of pain.

But Jhon was so quiet and seemed so shut down to me when I met him, that I said an extra little prayer for him that his Soul Adventure would give him the kind of transformation that he and his mother were hoping for. And it happened! As Jhon says:

“My life has been completely changed” – and then here’s the best part –

“The experiences with the different guides
allowed me the ability to work through and process
my most painful memories
and be able to move forward in my life.”

To go from total despair to knowing that you can move forward in your life, what an incredible gift!

And then I love the final thing he said:

“This is a lifestyle that will forever be a part of my journey.”

This is so important. As I tell all of our clients, every Soul Adventure is about real and lasting change. Everything is designed so that you have the tools to not only have a huge transformation with your Soul Adventure, but also that the transformations are completely integrated into your life. We give you tools, simple but powerful tools, so the transformations not only maintain, but continue to deepen. Every full Soul Adventure includes coaching sessions after the completion of your Adventure, because we know how important that ongoing support is.

Jhon did his retreat last month. At the end, when he was so blissfully happy, we asked him if he would be willing to do a testimonial and he said he wanted to wait to see if the transformations were going to stick with him after he got home and back into “real” life. So you can imagine how ecstatic I was when I suddenly received a notice from Trustpilot that Jhon had written these beautiful words.

And that’s another important piece. Jhon did his testimonial on Trustpilot, which is an independent 3rd party review service. See where it says “verified” above? That means they have verified that he is an actual client of ours. When you read non-verified testimonials on websites, very often those testimonials are made up by the person who designed the website!

If you want to change your life or your relationship, I invite you to read the hundreds and hundreds of 5-star reviews we have on Trustpilot.com. Don’t take my word that a Soul Adventure will absolutely transform your life or relationship. Take the word of the people who have had the transformations.

And then after that, speak with one of our Angel Guides. They’ll connect with you in deep conversation and start the process of figuring out what’s holding you back from the life or relationship of your dreams. Then they’ll custom design the perfect Soul Adventure for you.

And that’s the other piece that makes a Soul Adventure so unique. Unlike a group retreat, you’re receiving what YOU need and want. What was going on with Jhon is different than what’s going on with you. If you’re a couple, what’s going on with you is different than what’s going on with your partner. Everybody’s stuff is different, both in the way it came in and in the way it shows up. That’s why cookie cutter retreats don’t work.

We have over 50 Master Practitioners who are the best of the best here in Sedona – no one else even comes close. We’ll design the perfect Soul Adventure where you’re working one-on-one (or two-on-one for Couples) to have the same kind of astounding, amazing life-changing transformation that Jhon had.

Call us today or Click here and we’ll call you. One of our Angel Guides will connect with you (or both of you for a Couples Retreat) and we’ll go deep, to discover what’s holding you back from having the life or relationship of your dreams.

Enneagram Masterclass Sat 9 am Pac

I am so excited for our next two Masterclasses!

October 24
Enneagram I
What Is It? What Am I?

October 31
Enneagram II
The Enneagram In Relationships

The Enneagram is one of my passions and these two Masterclasses will be conducted by Robin Cameron, who I consider to be one of the finest Practitioners and teachers on the subject!

Class I will be about the Enneagram in general (What Is It? What Am I?) and Class II will be The Enneagram and Relationships – you won’t want to miss either one of these classes and you’ll want to be sure to take the free test before the class.

If you don’t know anything about the Enneagram, that’s okay, you’ll learn that in the class.

The Enneagram is an ancient personality test that tells you all about yourself and how you relate with other people. There are nine numbers and the accuracy of the test is just completely astounding. You’ll know your number and what that means in the first class and you’ll know more about how you relate to other people (spouses, friends, employers, employees) in the second class.

If you haven’t already signed up for our Masterclasses, it’s not too late for you to join us for all 20 sessions, or you can just get them one at a time (and always have access to the recordings). For these classes, we’re going to give you both classes for the price of one (if you decide to do the single session).

I’m giving you the link to take the test for free. If you’re attending the Masterclass, be sure to do this before Saturday, so that you know what number you are before the class starts. The test only takes about 10 minutes. Even if you’re not attending, I think you’ll find this to be fascinating. I devote a large part of my book (“The Journey To Happy – How Embracing The Concept That Nothing Is Wrong Can Transform Your Life”) to the Enneagram and how it impacts you in every area of your life.

Important Note for Taking the Test: If you are over the age of 25 and you find yourself stuck on a question, answer it as you would have at the age of 25.

Again, be sure to take the Test before Saturday – Click Here.

Has your life been hijacked by a toxic personality?
See my interview with Dr. Rhoberta Schaler on Meeting The Masters

Does your partner have to be right all the time? Are they a black and white thinker and can’t see the gray? Do they lack empathy? If you answered yes, then your relationship is troubled and may also be toxic.

This week’s Meeting The Masters Interview is really great — I speak with Dr. Rhoberta Shaler, PhD who calls herself a “Toxic Relationship Doctor” and “Life Mechanic.” She’s a Psychologist who has written many books and coined the term “Hyjackel” to describe the toxic personalities that lure you into terrible relationships.

Dr Rhoberta Shaler Cover Small

Watch the Interview

Dr. Shaler shares how a Hijackel lures you in then drives you crazy. You can go from thinking they’re the most amazing person you’ve ever met to fearing for your own sanity.

In this interview she shares how to spot one of these Hijackels and how to recover from a toxic relationship.

And, of course, if you’re in a toxic relationship, that’s just another reason to do a Soul Adventure!

“How To Tap Your Way Through Anything” Masterclass

Tapping is one of the most amazing things out there for turning things around. It’s so incredibly simple, but it’s so fantastically powerful! I use it every single day and it changed my life when I first discovered it.

How would you like to learn about something that helps with all of these things (this list is a result of a Google search I did, so don’t take just my word for it):

  • Addiction
  • Anger management
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Insomnia
  • Pain management
  • Phobias
  • Self-confidence and self-esteem
  • Pain Relief
  • Weight Loss
  • Stress
  • Depression
  • Resentment
  • Autoimmune Diseases

Plus, I want to add two more things that didn’t show up on this list, but we’ll be covering it on Saturday:

  • Lack of Abundance
  • Smoking Cessation

As I was writing this, I thought, “I need a quick definition,” so I Googled again and got this perfect definition:

And that’s exactly right. Tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique) was developed by a psychologist who studied acupuncture and developed this amazing process where you tap your fingers on different parts of the body, the meridian points. He used it primarily to release fears and phobias, but over the years, we’ve used it for so many clients here at Sedona Soul Adventures, including all of the above. It’s so simple, but so powerful!

In our very first Masterclass earlier this year, our Master Practitioner Rick Reynolds showed you how to tap through your negative feelings and emotions to remove blocks to joy, happiness, and love.

In this Saturday’s Masterclass, Rick takes you deeper into the Tapping. He will show you how to use tapping to let go of physical discomfort from headaches to allergies, releasing weight, ending unhealthy habits like smoking, and removing any blocks you may have to greater abundance in your life.

He’ll even talk to you about an amazing video that is on YouTube from someone who used tapping while he was in the hospital during the pandemic to stay off a ventilator and is convinced that is what saved his life. (Of course, we can’t promise that, but it’s certainly worth a try if you find yourself in that situation!)

It doesn’t matter whether you’ve ever tapped before; this is so simple, even children can use it!

Rick’s plan is to work with as many volunteers as time permits, so bring your issues and get ready to tap!

Karen says she was skeptical (especially about the price), but her Soul Adventure “went to the depths of my soul” and “exceeded my expectations”

Karen, thank you so much for your beautiful words. And yes, you need to be skeptical about things – as you say, Sedona is filled with “healers and psychics on almost every street corner” and you have no way of knowing who’s good and who isn’t. When I was coming to Sedona doing my own personal healing over a period of three years (before I started Sedona Soul Adventures), I did a lot of sessions with people here in Sedona who were not good at all, or worse, mediocre. For me, there’s nothing worse than doing a session that is just kind of blah.

One of the reasons I started Sedona Soul Adventures was so that people could come to Sedona and know that they were working with the best of the best. That’s why we vet our Practitioners thoroughly and put them through a rigorous approval process, so that we know they’ll be able to deliver the transformations you came here for.

Plus, no one else offers what we do – a Retreat Experience that is completely custom designed for exactly what you need (or what the two of you need for a Couples Retreat), where you will be working one-on-one (or two-on-one) sessions in private, not in groups. As Karen says, “to explore the depths of my soul without embarrassment or shame.” When you’re going into the depths of your soul, that is where the healing is, and you certainly don’t want to do that in front of other people.

And I love how she says: “Each session exceeded my expectations – as did each practitioner.”

She felt safe enough to plumb the depths of her soul, she went from her head to her heart and has gone into self love and freedom. Wow!

I’d love for you to have all that. Please contact us to speak to one of our Angel Guides. They’ll begin the process of digging deep to discover what are the blocks that are holding you back from having the life or relationship of your dreams? Those blocks are different for everybody, the cause is different and how they show up is different. Let’s start the process.

Remember, there’s no cost or obligation and you can do it in-Sedona or from the comfort of your own home.

Only a few spots left for our Return To Egypt Tour
February 13-26, 2021 – 100% Refundable

debra-pyramid_sphinx-2015

If you’re still thinking about the Egypt trip, I hope you can make a decision soon. We just have a few spots left for this trip of a lifetime.

It’s going to be so fabulous, I’m so excited!

Linda-Hallberg-Egypt-1

We go to all the must-see places:

  • The Great Pyramid (where we’ll have 2 hours of private time for ceremony just for our group)
  • The Sphinx
  • Karnak
  • Luxor
  • Abu Simbel
egypt-group

But we’ll also be going to places the average tourist doesn’t always see:

  • Isis Temple at Philae
  • Temple of Abydos
  • Hathor Temple at Dendera
  • Horus Temple at Edfu
  • The Osirion
King Tut Mask

And this year we have special tickets to see:

  • The Tomb of King Tut in the Valley of the Kings
  • The Tomb of Seti I in the Valley of the Kings
  • The Tomb of Queen Nefertari in the Valley of the Queens!

Plus, we’ll be doing ceremonies and meditations, and discussing the alternative theories of who built the Pyramids, who built the Sphinx (and when) and why are there carvings of a helicopter, a tank and a submarine in the walls of the Temple of Abydos?

Having two hours of private time just for our group inside the Great Pyramid for meditation and ceremonies is beyond belief!

And to go on a journey like this with other like-minded travelers – it’s just the icing on the cake. Don’t be concerned if you don’t have a companion to travel with – our groups are typically in love with each other within 48 hours, making friends that last a lifetime.

The Truth About Sedona

We have always been members of the Sedona Chamber of Commerce and this week, they sent us the most fabulously beautiful video, “Sedona Is Open.” It’s so gorgeous, you’ll love watching it.

Sedona is open and so are we!! We are wearing masks when we are in public and restaurants are at 50% capacity, but other than that, life is pretty much back to normal and our numbers have stayed very, very low.

One of our clients who came from the East Coast told me during her retreat this week that it was just so wonderful to come here to this beautiful place and to feel hope and joy again, and that it was night and day from where she had come from.

We re-opened for our in-Sedona retreats on May 15, and I have to tell you, the transformations that individuals and couples are having right now are just astounding. You can just feel it – the pandemic has brought out this deep desire in everyone to finally get rid of what’s holding them back so they can live their best life.

I love what Florida Mom/Wife/Chef/Taxi wrote about that in her Trustpilot review when she said “COVID Lock down was the final straw!”

Both Individuals and Couples Retreats are producing such incredible transformations. As MM said:

Isn’t it amazing that in a few short days, she released all her negative vibes that were holding her back? And can you imagine what a different world this would be if this were mandatory and everyone were releasing their negative vibes? I would vote for that!

The other thing we’re seeing is that everything that’s going on is making people really want to have the relationship they’re craving. They’re not willing to settle any more for less than that. See what Carl said just last week:

How fantastic is that? To have a “life-changing experience” that turned their marriage around!

People are also having amazing experiences with their One Day Soul Experience. As Karen said:

It’s so interesting to me, what’s happening with the One Day Soul Experiences. When I came to Sedona for the first time over 21 years ago, I ended up doing one session with an amazing Practitioner and it completely changed my life. A lot can happen in one day!

Lots of people are driving to us from Southern California, Utah and even as far away as Florida and Texas (!) because when you want your transformation, you want it now! But a lot of people are flying and we’ve had no issues. We are practicing strict protocols and even considering all the people who have come to Sedona we’ve had no issues with any of our clients, staff or practitioners.

Are you not quite ready to travel yet? No problem, you can still have an amazing transformation. When we started doing the At Home Soul Adventures, I couldn’t be sure that we could deliver the same kind of “punch” because we hadn’t done it before. But I’m so happy that the At Home Soul Adventures have delivered the same kind of transformations and have been just as powerful. As I always say, it’s because “energy is energy.” We connect you to the energy and move the energy in the same way, whether you’re in our space or your living room. As Crystal said:

As Crystal says, even though it was Virtual and she was doing it from home, she felt as if she was in person with each practitioner. But even better, she was able to release and let go of the blocks that have “been preventing her from living her true potential, her highest self.” How great is that?

You can also do the One Day Soul Experience from the comfort of your own home.

i want my transformation

Wouldn’t you love to get your life and/or your relationship back on track and take it to the next level? We have so many options for you now:

  • Our in-Sedona retreats (3 day minimum for individuals, 4 days for couples)
  • At Home Soul Adventure Retreat
  • Our One Day Soul Experience (either in-Sedona or At Home)

Call us today or Click here and we’ll call you. One of our Angel Guides will connect with you (or both of you for a Couples Retreat) and we’ll go deep, to discover what’s holding you back from having the life or relationship of your dreams. We’ll custom design a retreat that’s perfect for you and you can do it in-Sedona or from the comfort of your own home, wrapped in your fluffy blanket.
