Awakening the Divine Heart
A 12 day journey in the footsteps of Mary Magdalene
Alas.. we won’t be able to offer this very special retreat in 2020, but will have the 2021 dates on here as soon as they’re organised.
Tour Magdala, the tower built in honour of Mary Magdalene
Rennes le Chateau
Within the rugged mountains, deep gorges and lush valleys of the Pyrenees lie energy lines that form an ageless landscape imbued with the mysteries of the Isis tradition, the Essenes, Druids and Cathars, as well as our beloved Mary Magdalene.
The healing springs, caves and grottoes where she lived and taught will be your own sacred landscape on this deep and joyful journey to awaken and live from your true Divine Heart.
Join spiritual tour leaders Jane Elworthy and Jacqui Bushell on this journey of a lifetime!

Health
While it’s not necessary that you’re very fit, there will be walking on most days. The terrain varies from level walking through forests, navigating a few rocks, to steep (though not particularly difficult) walks up to Montsegur and Puilaurens.
If you have any medical conditions, please let us know. Your personal travel insurance is essential for this journey.
Accommodation
The cost of the retreat, $4485, is based on twin share.
If you’d like a single supplement, the cost is an extra $380.
The single rooms in particular are simply furnished and not particularly large, but each has it’s own bathroom. The grounds, by the beautiful Aude River, are superb.
