Book a call & reserve your weekend in 2024

From all of the things I’ve been doing like: running my mobile spa, coaching my clients, walking my Camino, writing my novel and hosting/producing my TV series, I’m feeling called to lead spiritual, wellness and writing retreats, and coach Spiritual Storytellers to heal their past and create a brighter future using the magic of storytelling.

Hello Spiritual Storytellers!

My name is Maria and I’m inviting you to join me here in Victoria, Canada for my next Indigo, Ink & Insight Retreat where we explore the themes of spirituality, writing, and self-reflection, which are all important components of a spiritual storytelling journey.

My retreats include coaching sessions, journaling, guided meditations and referencing my novel, Closer to Indigo and TV series, Saanich: Emerging Land; Emerging People. I’m also guiding my guests and clients on nature hikes through the supernatural wilderness that surrounds us here on Vancouver Island. Of course, crystals are in the mix and dance parties, too, and there’s even time for excursions, self-care and spa services.

I’ve named this retreat “INDIGO, INK & INSIGHT” because the word “Indigo” has spiritual connotations and is often associated with intuition and self-awareness; “Ink” suggests a focus on writing and self-expression; and “Insight” implies self-reflection and personal growth — which are all near and dear to my own heart.
