Individual & Couples Retreat
Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico
Millions of years ago, the site of Truth or Consequences, New Mexico was said to be an underwater volcanic ridge. Over time, the area morphed into marsh land that contained geo-thermal mineral springs flowing into the Rio Grande river. Here neighboring indigenous tribes, namely Apache and Mimbres tribes, designated this are as neutral territory and used the baths to bathe and heal. As the marsh lands dried up, a small group of White settlers, built homes and established the town of Hot Springs in 1851, which was later renamed Truth or Consequences. Today Truth or Consequences (known also as TorC) is made up of a community of artists, Queer and indigenous folx, as well as right wing conservatives. The town is both fire and water; left and right extremes. The land both forces you to confront truths, as its healing waters cradle you in its warm embrace.
Within this setting we do a deep dive into the issue(s) that you need deeper resolution. Pre- and post integration sessions are also included in this process. The sessions will be combined with home cooked meals, and together we will curate an experience that may include some of the following rich and restorative activities:
Hiking or biking at Turtle Back Mountain
Hot spring soaks
River float (large inner tubes) on the Rio Grande River
Kayaking at Elephant Butte Lake
Day Trip to White Sands National Park, Old Town Mesilla, Gila National Forest
Art Walks through the many art galleries and vintage thrift stores in TorC.
