GAZEâ˘ď¸ to Heal
You, Me, and We
A 3-Day Hybrid Retreat that Trains You to Hold Space and Transform Suffering into Higher Consciousness
Ojo Sante Fe, NM âMarch 19-21, 2025
"A retreat experience with Annie is simply magical. Being in a mystical landscape supported me to access a Fullness within me that expanded and deepened my soul growth significantly. Annie coached me and supported me to engage in an exceptional spiritual experience that I took back home with me."

Dear Friends,
There are big burdens too big to hold alone. Holding space heals them.
Now more than ever, itâs time to hold space for the big things we canât hold alone.
After our son died, everything fell apart. Our family was shell-shocked and numb after experiencing the direct trauma of his death. We relocated across the country like a fish out of water and struggled to feel at home again. We stopped working our jobs as we were barely able to function. Our bodies started to show the effects of stress and grief; we developed chronic health challenges that consumed our time and energy.
Some days were just too much. And just then, when I felt myself teetering on the edge of âtoo much,â something would take over.
I felt myself held and buoyed by a group field âa large expanded consciousness network âholding me up when I couldnât hold myself up anymore.
Later, I learned what was happening. People were holding space âa group field âon my behalf.Holding space healed me.Â
- A group of friends were gathering every Tuesday night to hold us in healing love.
- My family network was taking turns meditating and praying for us.
- People worldwide took time to build altars of remembrance and sat in solidarity.
- Friends committed to rituals âlike standing outside in the sun or under the night sky âto manifest peace, healing, and hope for us.
Your rational mind will say that holding space does no tangible good. Itâs the illusion that if we canât see it, so it doesnât work. Quantum theory says differently. Non-locality suggests that particles can be connected instantaneously across space, so the space you hold directly impacts someone else. As someone who has benefited from holding space, I know that it heals the deep wounds that surface action canât touch.
Now more than ever, good actions arenât enough without healing space to support them.Â
Do you feel called to hold space but donât know how?
You may feel called to heal by holding space in suffering if:If you are ready to learn how to hold space for you, me, and we, join me for an innovative training that will teach you how to hold space so that your presence creates positive changes within you, your relationships, and the world.
- You are close to someone who is going through a challenging time and you feel called to be present with them in their struggle in a way that they can feel.
- You are struggling in body, mind or spirit with something deeply difficult and you long for a solid community that can share the burden.
- You know you have a healing presence that is ready to work on the behalf of yourself, others and the world but don't know how.
- You are concerned about what is happening in the world right now and you want to be part of a real solution to elevate the consciousness of humanity.
- You are facing a difficulty in some way âlimited finances, health crises, relationship schisms, career disillusionment, debilitating emotions, personal or collective trauma âand you are ready for a powerful transformative process that works on a deep level.Â
Join me in Sante Fe in March, 2025.  I'm holding space for you...
With love,Â
Â
AnnieÂ
"I spend the majority of my time focused on my business, my family and my responsibilities as a leader, mother, wife, grandmother and friend. During a retreat with Annie I am present to myself, my spirit and nature. I can quiet my mind and hear my own inner wisdom. Learning through experiential practices in connection with nature has resulted in deep and lasting change in how I show up in the world. Iâve been on retreat with Annie in Ireland, France, Colorado and Virginia and I am always in awe of her beautiful retreat experiences. These retreats are a priority for my growth and nurturing my soul."Â

Why GAZEâ˘ď¸ to Heal You, Me and We
GAZE opens your perception to interconnection.
Â
GAZE is a method that creates a group field of interconnection that transforms suffering into higher consciousness.
Are you tired of trying hard to heal yourself or change someone else or fix the world?Â
It may be because you are trying to heal all by yourself instead of accessing a powerful matrix of interconnection âthe group field âthat will heal on your behalf and transmute suffering into higher consciousness. Big challenges can't be transformed alone. Here's how...
Imagine what it would be like to hold a divine presence that creates change âa higher consciousness that others can feel instantly when they are with you.
Accessing the group field âa powerful matrix of healing âhappens in unordinary states of consciousness, when the mind is powered down and you enter a "quantum state" for profound healing insights and transformative experiences. When you hold a group field, others experience a divine presence when they are with you.
Unordinary states circumvent the mind's usual defenses, which creates 3 powerful changes in the healing process for you and for those you hold:
- You bypass the critical, conscious mind, allowing suppressed emotions, primal suffering and unresolved trauma to surface for healing.
- You increase neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to form new neural connections, enabling shifts in thought patterns, behaviors, and emotional responses.
- You clear blockages and encounter aspects of yourself that you might usually avoid, leading to profound personal growth and integration.
GAZE is an unordinary state induction method that impacts your physiology so that you are in an expanded state of consciousness state that gives you what you most want âa change that transforms suffering to consciousness for you and those you love âso that experience quantum leaps of growth and change. As you expand your consciousness, you elevate the consciousness of others and the world.
Â
The group field âa healing holding space âmakes this retreat unique:Â
You heal yourself.
In an unordinary state, you access a group field that creates emotional balance, increases self-awareness, lowers stress and improves physical health and develops inner wisdom and guidance.
You heal others.
In an unordinary state, you access a group field that helps you radiate compassion and empathy, communicate a depth in your speaking and listening, model peace and equanimity.Â
You heal the world.
In an unordinary state, you access a group field that acts with integrity and alignment, collectively shifts energy, reduces polarization and division, and cultivate interconnection with others so they know they are not alone.
"My experience [at the retreat] was eye opening. I met many wonderful, kind and courageous like minded people. You will have to attend to get the full effect of what will transpire for you. It was enlightening! It was mystical!

"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
There is a field. I'll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
The world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
Doesn't make any sense."
-Rumi

"I have been on a journey to discover my true self. Annie has been instrumental in helping me get to the core of who I am and how I show up in my life. She is not only a gifted transformational leader but also an incredible intuitive guide. She has helped me to understand that I am so much more than just my reflection in the mirror. Through the methods she teaches and the retreats she offers, I have discovered how to be comfortable with who I am and how I show up in all aspects of my life."
Ann S.
"The retreat with Annie was a wonderful way to reconnect with myself. My experience was not the same as the others, but during the experience I was able to connect with myself, my beliefs, and remember a lot of things I had forgotten from life. I met wonderful people, different points of view, and more specially, visit sites that I would have never even known they existed if it wasnât for this trip. It gave me a reset in my daily routine, and it fed my soul with Annieâs guidance, kindness, and love. I canât wait for my next retreat to keep on growing not only personally but most importantly, spiritually."
Marty L.
"The quiet and beauty of the venue was a perfect backdrop for a powerful and magical retreat. Annie masterfully wove the magic and history of the area into the experience. The time and space we had each day to learn and reflect â whether alone or connecting with others â was important. The things I learned, and the insights I gained, are still with me. Annie has a special way and is an exceptional teacher. I look forward to the next retreat and to continuing this work."
What if I don't get it?
Interconnection? Group field? Quantum matrix? Cosmic web?
You may wonder if you are spiritual enough to experience the power of the group field for healing.Â
You are.Â
The words are big, but the concept is simple. You are more than you think you are. You may perceive yourself as one little being with a small impact. The reality is that when you encounter an expanded sense of who you are, you start to experience a blurred line between you, other and world. You begin to perceive yourself in another person and them in you. It sounds weird. It's actually quite amazing, because you finally understand how big you/me/we really is.
Discovering interconection is how you hold healing space for yourself, those you love and the world that you want to make better.Â
GAZE opens your perception to interconnection.
