A Whale of a Miracle in Baja, Mexico

There's only in ONE place in the whole world--Baja, Mexico, where whales approach humans and WANT to be touched, petted, kissed and hugged AND they bring their babies to us too.

Why?

It's truly a miracle!

Truly Meaningful Encounters with Whales in their world, on their terms

Next Retreat: February 23-March 1, 2025

World over, humans are in awe of whales. We seek them out because they touch our spirits and change us in unexplainable ways. We want to know them and be seen by them. They inspire us!

Where in your life do you need inspiration?

What do you need to get through, get over, get past?

Through truly meaningful encounters like these you will be able to more easily move through your challenges and (re)claim your true essence--JOY.

I call it 'No Drama Trauma Transformation'!

Joy helps us thrive!

They look us in the eyes. They WANT us to pet them all over. The 40-ton moms push their babies up to us. They roll over for tummy rubs. They blow in your face and you can almost hear them laughing while we holler, laugh and sometimes cry.

This location is a HIGHLY REGULATED and protected area for only this whale encounter phenomenon. Developed by the local fishermen and community, they provide the trips from their 'pangas' or small fishing boats.

There's only a small window of time every winter to experience this miracle.

The whales are not fed, trained or cajoled in any way and can choose when and if to approach the boats.

I ONLY take participants to truly wild and free whale and dolphin locations.

Included is a special day in Loreto, Mexico to go out and play with the BLUE whales, the largest animal that ever lived on Earth! It's not your average tourist trip either...

We will look for Humpback whales, Fin Whales, Dolphins and Sea Lions who frequent the area at this time of year.

Here's a fun video with fascinating information about Blue Whales.

The mysterious story here of love, forgiveness, compassion and redemption can truly change lives. We will be using this phenomenon as we focus on our own goals during the retreat.

Meaningful connections with whales is F.U.N.!

F.U.N. is a Fundamental Universal Need.

F.U.N. is the vital spark that many of us need to re-claim, along with our Joy and Ease.

Research is clear that fun, play and joy are pathways to healing mind, body and spirit.

Here's just a small example of the magical hours we spend on the water with the whales!
