They have a gorgeous guest cottage that has two spacious bedrooms with windows overlooking the lake, a nice new kitchen, and a bathroom with a sauna. The grounds are gorgeous and there are lots of little spaces to write, relax, and take in the scenery. It is peaceful and serene. There is a resident black lab who is so sweet and a few cats that would rather not be bothered yet may come to see what you are up to. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get away from the hectic scene of the city yet may not be able to escape to too far away!

I always walk away from Danny feeling like I can do it, and we all can do it (I get a sense of planetary hope). He also delivers everything that he teaches with such a heart-felt genuine care and a non-stop sense of humor, a great combo. He's been very helpful in helping me shift out of some old beliefs that have been standing in my way for years. I can't express enough the care that he puts into helping people and it shows in his voice and demeanor. He goes above and beyond. Thanks Danny for being such an amazing resource for me!

Last night, my husband and I sat in our hot tub - a lifelong dream - in our beautiful backyard with…read moreredwoods, by the shadow of our first purchased home - and the loveliest home we've ever lived in, gazing at the sky full of stars. We talked about how amazing this was, as only a year ago we were paying exorbitant rent in a moldy house with eternal fog, working jobs that were killing us, and had major health issues looming. We discussed the business that I'm starting, another lifelong dream of mine and true passion realized. We looked at each other and said almost simultaneously, "We would have never gotten here without the work we did with Danny." It felt like a trivial decision at the time to start working with him, and instead it was one of my most life-altering decisions ever. I've been a lifelong seeker and student of mind/body work including traditional therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic, massage modalities, yoga, hypnotherapy etc. I sought out all of these things to quell a lifetime of heavy anxiety. They all helped in their own way, but never lasted long beyond the treatment. Working with Danny was the first thing that relieved my anxiety sustainably. It connected all the other things I'd tried, and redirected my life energy in a positive direction. An important clarification on that - I had to do all the work, he held up the road signs, but I had to take the steps everyday. Simply having sessions with him would have only provided limited improvement, I had to do the work everyday on my own for the true change to occur. Now, I meditate everyday. It has changed everything my life. Danny helped build my confidence and courage to live my dreams, pursue my passions, and take leaps to propel my life into its highest potential. It's really hard to describe what Danny does. It's the most esoteric work I've ever participated in; yet it's had the most staggeringly tangible results of any single mind/body work I've ever tried. That is the mystery and magic of it. It takes a leap of faith on the part of the client to jump into something different - even now something I still don't fully understand. Take the leap, jump into the magic and fully unleash the life you were born to live. Don't worry about understanding it, just go with it. Be ready. Reiki is the trippiest thing. I still don't have a friggen clue what it really is. It doesn't *seem* like anything is happening. And then WOOSH!!!!!! Everything in your life starts to change. Radically. Stuff moves, it goes where it needs to go. At times it's painful, and terrifying. Just go with it. Do the grounding work to get through it, and keep spiraling up. Things will end up better than you could have ever dreamed. I've always thought I couldn't meditate because my mind never stopped - I'm a highly cerebral person. Now I meditate everyday to beautiful guided sessions that Danny made for me. It's as natural for me as drinking water, and just as necessary. The hypnotherapy sessions, which he recorded and I re-listen to often, have allowed my subconscious to relax and know that everything will be all right, and work out wonderfully well. Danny is a true healer, he always knows just what you need with his magnetic intuition. He's both the most *woowoo* guy I've ever known, and also the most raw and down-to-earth one - you can't shock this guy, and judgement isn't in his universe. He is pure 100% love love love. He heals with love, and channels all the power and love of the universe to his clients, to help them live out their dreams. A few logistical notes: Danny's rates are very reasonable on a per hour basis as compared to other body workers. At first I was a little skeptical about paying up front for sessions versus paying per session, but I ended up being a grateful for it because I knew I had a certain amount of time with him, and didn't have to pay every time I went. The work with Danny is like reading a whole book, you don't want to buy the book in chapters. It also made me a lot more invested in the work, and less likely to flake out halfway through. Also, it was very helpful for my husband and I to be simultaneously - in our own individual sessions - going through the work with Danny. The work is unlike anything else, and you do have to just keep the faith and go with it. It's nice to have someone who understands what you're doing and feeling. And also to share the wonder of it! We always came back from our sessions with huge smiles, and feelings of floating in the clouds. My best friend was going through the work as well, and it was fun to compare notes and share stories among all of us. There are no words to express my gratitude to Danny, for his energy, love and guidance. My life is on a different, infinitely better, spiraling-up, high-vibrational, trajectory, and I am living my dreams in ways I never thought were possible. And it all happened in a year. Thank you Danny. Namaste.

Each one has built on the next and has become more fine-tuned each time. This divinely inspired event is thoughtfully curated based on specific energies that are coming forth and personalized to each of the individuals participating. This retreat is something I look forward to for many reasons. The private accommodations exclusively booked for a small group have access to hot mineral springs with healing properties. Activities and tools that enable openings for advancements. There is a perfect balance of self reflection or alone time and group time. Visits to known energy centers such as Joshua Tree, Integratron, Giant Rock, and Wind Walkers' Medicine Wheel provide connection to ancient wisdom and allow us to tap into knowledge beyond our human experience. At each retreat I've met incredible people that I still feel connected to regardless of our physical distance. After every retreat, I leave feeling transformed, transcendent, connected, and energetically at a higher frequency and vibration. I recommend this gift to individuals seeking breakthroughs and tools to create the life you desire. Make sure to book an extra night to allow time to absorb and integrate!

Susan worked me into her schedule, and after my appointment, I was feeling better immediately. I see her regularly now. I am always able to make an appointment easily. She is personable, professional, and truly a great LMT. I have an old low back injury that she's been able to make good progress on "unwinding," and the work she does will hold me over. You know how sometimes you have a massage, but within a day or two, the pain comes back? Susan is able to make it stick, and help me stay balanced and feeling good between appointments. Highly recommend!!

The hot springs are incredibly relaxing as well. I appreciate that the sauna and spiral tubs are cleaned daily, and the others on a rotating schedule, so they always feel relatively fresh. I also love that the springs are clothing optional. To me, it feels like a fantastic way to help me drop into the healing vibes and it's a tea practice for us westerners to detach nudity from sexuality. Such a worthy practice for all of us to honor that bodies just are and nudity doesn't always need to be sexualized. Plus it keeps the tubs cleaner to not have clothing in them! Love that the soaking options are open 24/7. I'm also a huge fan of the cold plunges, and the access to the cold river for plunging/dipping. And I LOVE that's it's off-grid so guests can really drop into presence. The staff feel welcoming and friendly, and there's always someone on duty, even overnight, which helps me feel safe. I also appreciate the "no intoxicants" policy for the same reason. It's not a polished bougie type of resort, so if you want or expect that this might not be the place for you. If you're into forests and healing waters and delicious food in a more family-like atmosphere, you'll love it here.
