TRANSITIONS VIII
Arrabida Natural Park, Portugal
November 8 - 16, 2024
Transitions offers an immersive rite of passage, consciously designed for you to take action and reclaim your sovereignty. It invites you to transcend your limitations and discover where your limits are not. This journey is one of self-discovery and acceptance, fostering a sense of community and belonging, while embracing mastery in the Art of Living.
OVERVIEW
Transitions is not a retreat; it's a deep dive into the understanding of the Anatomy of the Human Experience, designed to help you cultivate your innate Genius. It’s an invitation to broaden your perspective and experience life’s mysteries, empowering trust, respect, and a profound sense of responsibility on the ultimate adventure of life itself.
This journey has been crafted to rekindle your inner fire, exposing you to the experiences necessary to integrate the tools and wisdom required to discover your fullest potential—as an individual, as a partner, and as an artist in the Art of Living.
Diego's most visionary and transformative initiative, Transitions evolves with each group, inspired by love and made with love.
Committing to this 8-night journey isn’t about following dogma; it’s about allowing yourself to be transformed by the unorthodox qualities of a journey that empowers you to reshape your life in the most integrative and generative way. It’s about realizing your true self, opening your heart, and clearing your mind.
YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT.
ARE YOU READY TO TRANSITION FROM THE OLD VERSION OF YOURSELF AND INTO THE NEW?

As a Spiritual Coach, she uses aura reading as a profound tool to access the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical layers of her clients' energetic bodies. With a Masters in Science in Counseling, Jen combines her formal therapeutic background with her intuitive gifts, love of Reiki and immersive meditation, to uncover hidden patterns, beliefs, traumas, and untapped potential. She also studies at a classic mystery school and uses astrology and tarot to deepen her integration sessions. Through perceiving images, colors, and messages in the energetic field, Jen offers transformative insights that guide individuals toward personal growth and healing and aids in chakra energy cleansing.

Whether offering general readings or themed question sessions, Jen creates a space for deep self-discovery and spiritual connection.
Siddhi Ma's journey from a seeker to a spiritual guide is a testament to her dedication, resilience, and passion for personal development and spiritual growth. Born as a curious soul, Siddhi's quest for knowledge and self-discovery began at the tender age of 17 when she embarked on a search for a therapist. This initial step led her from her first psychotherapy session to encountering her first Indian teacher, Osho. Siddhi's spiritual journey took a significant turn when she encountered her first Indian teacher, Osho. This meeting marked the beginning of her lifelong dedication to spirituality and personal development. After Osho's passing, Siddhi continued her journey, crossing paths with numerous teachers and learning from various lineages. She pursued and completed studies in Social Pedagogy, body centered psychotherapy, and taught Leadership and Management Trainings in Germany, Sweden, Greece, and the US until 1994. A challenging health issue led her to Kundalini Yoga, marking the end of her career as a consultant and the beginning of her life as a yogini.
