Have you ever dreamed of traveling to Hawai’i? Sun-kissed beaches. Fiery volcanoes. Lu’au feasts. The gracious beauty of a hula dancer. Hawai’i is all of these things and more! Come spend an evening luxuriating in the aloha of the islands as we look more deeply into the history, culture and spirituality of this remarkable part of America. Through fascinating pictures and stories we will explore the rich heritage and traditions that make Hawai’i one of the most beautiful, healing and life-giving places on Earth. This year our journey will take us to the lush islands of Maui and Kaua’i. Here we will drive the famous Road to Hana and visit otherworldly Haleakala Volcano National Park. We’ll tour the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific” and experience Kaua’i’s mystical Na Pali Coast, all the while surrounded by the song of wintering humpback whales. In addition, we will get to meet with native kahuna shamans, experience spiritual ceremony at sacred sites, and visit the temples of many of the world’s beliefs that call Hawai’i home. For those who are interested, there will be an opportunity after the presentation to discuss the details of our 10-day spiritual tour to Hawai’i in early 2022. So come join us for an evening of inspiration and let the magic of Hawai’i “call you home” to Paradise! Zoom link will be sent via email before class. ***For more information visit https://treeoflifetourshawaii.wordpress.com/
