It’s All About YOU

If you love “thin places,” you’re one of us

Our clients share a certain similarity in their travel habits, especially in their quest to find inspiring, culturally-rich locales that have the magical power to transform. If you’re one of us, we believe the following excerpt about “thin places” will resonate will you. The article was written for the New York Times by Eric Weiner, and published in March 2012.

Where Heaven and Earth Come Closer

(See if You Relate!)

“I’m drawn to places that beguile and inspire, sedate and stir, places where, for a few blissful moments I loosen my death grip on life, and can breathe again. It turns out these destinations have a name…thin places …They are locales where the distance between heaven and earth collapses and we’re able to catch glimpses of the divine or the transcendent…

…We are jolted out of old ways of seeing the world, and therein lies the transformative magic of travel. The ancient pagan Celts, … used the term to describe mesmerizing places like the wind-swept isle of Iona (now part of Scotland) or the rocky peaks of Croagh Patrick. Heaven and earth, the Celtic saying goes, are only three feet apart, but in thin places that distance is even shorter…

…These places relax us, yes, but they also transform us, or more accurately, unmask us. In thin places, we become our more essential selves…

…Thin places are often sacred ones and make me feel that I am floating, suspended between coming and going. These places are so comfortable in its own skin, so at home with its own nature – Its “suchness”, as the Buddhists would put it – that I couldn’t help but feel the same way.”

…For me it is the Spiritual aspect that had and is having the deepest impact… in fact learnings are STILL unfolding over a week later – I experienced a deep personal breakthrough while interacting with horses, had the opportunity to speak one-on-one with an amazing medicine woman, and have been experiencing a subtle but powerful transformation started by a simple walk with a rose.

I can’t think of any other place to get what I got from my week with The Divine Destination Collection. From all parts of my heart I thank you for creating this experience. The memories, learnings, and friends are truly priceless. Thank you!

It has been a few days for all of us – back to reality, the grind, whatever you call daily life! I have spent this time reflecting back, as memories pop into my head; and a smile crosses my face or a silent giggle. I have spread the word, with rave reviews, to everyone in my universe, as they have all called to ask about my big 3 day getaway!! I built this up deliberately to all of them prior to the trip – and you sure delivered, as I knew you both would…

Thank you for your attention, your hospitality, your professionalism, and your sense of fun.
I absolutely loved it.

…I met wonderful people who were real and were kind. I enjoyed the beauty of nature. I experienced luxury that was true perfection. I developed friendships that will continue into my future. And I laughed and I laughed. What more can I say. Sometimes life allows us an opportunity to go outside of the box and to open our eyes to see all the wonderful opportunities we have in life. My weekend with you did this for me and I thank you.

The resort, the food, the company, the program…. everything was absolutely outstanding! I am already passing the word to many of my family and friends to look into the next experience with the Divine Destination Collection.

The Divine Destination Collection flawlessly partnered Spirituality and Luxury in an effortless and luminous way. Being a Spiritual teacher and founder of one of the world’s leading inspirational websites, I have experienced a plethora of events, retreats and workshops, however; none that have left the imprint that my recent Divine Destination Collection experience to Arizona will leave on my heart for an eternity! The accommodations, perfection! The food, an orgasm to the senses! …and the staff, like a warm tea on a cold winter’s eve! Simply Divine!

We are so grateful to you for having given us this opportunity to relax, fall back and rejuvenate. The people who came are the people who were meant to be here and we became a big, happy family. We have made so many good memories and we’ll hope this will happen again.

We return home with singing hearts, full of hope and will take each and every one of you wonderful people with us. Thank you, thank you.  You have thought of very detail…we feel so blessed!

…The spirituality part for me was being in nature, seeing deer by the side of the road, Krista’s workshop and connecting with others in joy and friendship. And everything we did, you two were there either smiling and making sure we had everything we needed, joining in the festivities, or graciously in the background taking care of the many, many small details we may never know it took to make the Muskoka trip the huge success it was. I love saying, “And then in Muskoka…” as I recall the memories. Thank you!
