All Earth-Heart programs and retreats, run by Malcolm Ringwalt, focus on a holistic, mind/body/spirit approach to health, healing, and personal and spiritual growth. All of our programs, whether in beautiful retreat centers, or in the woods where camping is required, utilize the healing power of nature in the work we do. Some Earth-Heart programs center on the ancient rite of passage known as the
Vision Quest. We facilitate Vision Quests, we offer a Vision Quest Protector training program, and we are the only school to offer The Seven Levels of Quest which explores the profound deeper teachings and processes within a Vision Quest. Other programs, like the Lighten Up Healing Retreat, and our 2-Week Retreat (run in collaboration with Allyson Rice and The Total Human), focus on creating dynamic energy and power. These classes bring Eastern philosophy and teachings into the mix -- including kundalini yoga, various forms of meditation, pranayama (breathwork), and sound therapy (including work with mantra, the gong and drums). These practices create powerful physical and spiritual energy, help to clear deeper layers of unresolved issues
We also offer Women's Retreats, Couple's Retreats, Individual Personal Intensives, as well as one-on-one spiritual mentoring, and energy healing based in Native American, Tibetan, and yogic healing arts. All Earth-Heart programs and retreats are designed to put you on the path of your heart and your own Inner Guidance. Our students come from all walks of life, diverse spiritual traditions, and are quite varied in age and level of experience. We celebrate the diversity of the students who come to us.
