    I have had the opportunity to visit Esalen many times and each time better than the last period I got to do a month-long in 2023 and it was incredible. I did the integrative gestalt training training.

    It was five days of paradise in every way. The location, the ambience, the food, the baths, the room rooms, and the program that I attended was magical.
