Winner Receives Free Entry to The Event

A Four Day Retreat with Lynn V. Andrews ‘Riding the Light Waves of 2012′ May 31 – June 3, 2012 (Thursday – Sunday)

How would you like to attend Joshua Tree on the Mesa, at beautiful Ghost Ranch, Abiqui, New Mexico, this year – with your full event fee* (valued at $850) paid!

Here’s how to make it happen: Write a 500-word essay and submit it according to the instructions below. If your essay is chosen, you win free tuition to this years’ Event! This year at Joshua Tree we explore:

An illusion is what you hold to be true which is no longer real for you. Write an essay examining three personal illusions which you are willing to drop and why. Explore either how you have given up these illusions, or write about those illusions you know you need to work on which you still have not yet released.

As you approach this essay, relax and have fun! This is offered as an opportunity this is to open your heart, to appreciate your own unique and brilliant journey in this lifetime. See if you can let go of self-judgment about the past and simply be present with everything that comes up. You may use any of your favorite shamanic tools, but do not worry if you feel you “have none.” There is no one right approach – no one right style of writing – there is only your own special process and journey. Love yourself and enjoy it! Congratulate yourself as a winner if you complete and submit and essay. The opportunity is Lynn’s gift to you, and the process is your gift to yourself.
