SEDONA, ARIZ. – March 24, 2011 – Mii amo, the intimate award-winning destination spa at Enchantment Resort in Sedona’s red rock country, is hosting a special three-night Journey for women during Mother’s Day Weekend, May 5-8.  Mothers and daughters are invited to connect with their deep feminine wisdom as they explore the powerful, receptive nature of being a woman.  Popular returning Mii amo experts, Wendy Lindahl, M.A. and Leslee Vogal, M.A., will lead the retreat and weave their decades of experience into a weekend of learning, sharing, storytelling, dance, and more.

 

“This sacred space of being a mother and the opportunity to connect and share are the cornerstones of this workshop,” says Lindahl, a long-time practitioner of gentle energy and healing yoga.  She is celebrated for her insights into the body’s intrinsic wisdom gained from more than 20 years as a registered dance/movement therapist and yoga instructor. 

 

“The sacred intention for this weekend is that each woman experiences a more authentic expression of herself combining her relationships as a daughter and a mother, with her own essence,” says Vogal, who has practiced natural/complementary medicine for 20 years, studying with such renowned healers as Dr. Tieronna Lowdog, Dr. Vasant Lad, Dr. Sunil Joshi, and Bethyla.  She holds degrees and years of training in Ayurveda, herbal medicine, nutrition, Chinese medicine, psychology, yoga, Reiki, and Jin Shin Jyustu.

 

The 2011 Mii amo Mother’s Day Retreat, May 5-8, Celebrating The Feminine Essence, offers a mix of group and customized individual experiences as well as ample time to unwind in harmony with the inspirational surroundings.
