The Sacred Journey Explained

During the Sacred Journey workshop, you will experience the powerful healing of the sweatlodge. You will travel on your own personal vision quest you will explore and experience the power of a loving community through the creation of community meals.

A vision quest is simply a search for the meaning and purpose of life.

Throughout the millennia humankind has hoped that life is more than just survival and eventual oblivion. Mankind has always needed to search for some sort of significance to their existence.

Nowadays, if for some obscure reason the subject of vision quest comes up in conversation, the image that often comes to mind is that of a young man struggling up a mountain in the dead of night – with flashes of lightning, and waves of thunder adding a touch of surreal spirituality.

If you’re struggling with questions about what the heck you should do with the rest of your life… don’t worry about finding a mountain to climb. It’s just a metaphor to create the idea that your vision quest might end up being an uphill struggle. But, given the morass of confusion that overwhelms even our smallest decisions it’s probably an apt image to keep in mind if you’re hoping to make sense of the mess you’re in.

Although man is born with the capacity to create meaning for himself, it doesn’t happen automatically. It’s a process of growth – first physically, then spiritually through self-awareness. The successful vision quest was, and still is, a defining moment in the spiritual development of any person.
