The Sea Goddesses Program August 2018 Immersion
The Sea Goddesses Program – A heart-centered approach to empowering women
The Sea Goddesses Program offers a week-long Immersion for women aboard a sailing vessel, learning skills and deepening your confidence to think and act independently on a boat, while at the same time dropping into your heart to listen deeply to your own wisdom.
No experience on boats is necessary. The only requirement I have is that, as you journey across the sea, you are open to allow yourself to also journey within.
The Call of the Sea
If you feel the call of the sea and a burning desire in your heart to own your innate heart-centered power, to learn to act and think independently on a boat, while being completely supported by the beautiful feminine energy of the group, the sea, and the Divine Mother, join me in The Sea Goddesses Program.
The Journey
Our journey will take place on my 34-foot sailing boat Adria Brava. The boat will be our home for six nights, starting in Adria’s home port of Zadar, Croatia, journeying through the central part of the Croatian Adriatic, and back to Zadar. The emphasis is not on miles covered but on what we learn on our journey. Note that this is not a luxury cruise.
Accommodation
Single or shared cabins aboard the sailing vessel Adria Brava. Adria Brava is not a luxurious vessel and cabins on her are not very big. To share a cabin on Adria Brava means to be in quite close quarters with another woman. If you feel you need your own space, a single-cabin option will be best suited for you. Adria Brava offers one front cabin, and two aft (back) cabins, one head (bathroom), a galley (kitchen), and salon. We allocate the accommodation on a first-come-first-served basis.
Promotional Prices*
1090 EUR – Single Cabin
890 EUR – Shared Cabin
*These are promotional prices for 2018. Prices include tuition, food, fuel, and accommodation on the boat. It excludes special dietary needs, and travel costs to and from Adria Brava.
Adria Brava is an amazing boat and I am thrilled to be sharing her with you. However, she is not a luxurious vessel and cabins on her are not very big. If you feel you need your own space, a single-cabin option will be best suited for you. To share a cabin on Adria Brava means to be in quite close quarters with another woman. Perhaps there is a friend or a family member you would like to share this journey with? If so, shared-cabin option may be for you. The shared-cabin option may also be for you, if you are on a tighter budget and do not mind sharing your sleeping space with someone else.
