Participant Testimonials
I never felt judged about anything I expressed to Sarah. She was always there supporting me, radiating love.
I am fortunate to have been able to have a one-on-one somatic experience with Sarah throughout my journey from pre-integration to ceremony, and then post-integration.
I had never done somatic attachment therapy before, let alone even heard of somatics when I began working with Sarah. I am not very good at expressing myself, so the sessions were a bit uncomfortable at first. I had a lot of thoughts like “Should I be feeling more? Am I doing this right? Should I say/not say this?” After talking over my concerns with Sarah, it got easier to not overthink and just express what I was feeling. I was able to lean into it and connect with my body in a way I never had before. I never felt judged about anything I expressed to Sarah. She was always there supporting me, radiating love.
Over the six weeks, we worked through several issues I had within myself, one of which was an inability to focus due to overthinking and overwhelm. When we worked through this and some of the other issues, I remember being surprised by how my body was communicating with me, and I felt sorry that I had never listened to it so intentionally before.
I was a little nervous before the ceremony, but I knew I was in loving and capable hands. The space was beautiful and inviting, comfortable, and familiar in a way. There was ethereal music with chanting playing as the four of us present were cleansed with palo santo. After the palo santo, Sarah guided me through a short meditation to bring my intentions to mind. Next was a breathing exercise to prepare my lungs. When Sarah served me the medicine, I breathed it in until I could feel it taking me away. I laid down and let go...
I don’t remember much after that, except for some feelings, sounds, and vibrations I can’t put into words. I awoke in a warm blanket of joy that I was desperate to hold on to. I remember thinking to myself that I wanted to feel like that for as long as possible, to not do anything that would dampen the connection I had with the medicine at that moment.
Over the next few days, I felt like I had unlocked the secrets of the universe; secrets that we all have deep inside if only we could open ourselves up enough to uncover them.
Since being with the medicine, I feel like I have a renewed focus, a focus on the things that are most important and that will get me where I desire to be. I still have feelings of overwhelm at times, but I recognize it more quickly now and am able to take a few moments to sit with it and let it pass.
I feel so honored to have been able to have this experience, to connect with the medicine, and have it enrich my life, and to have had Sarah there with me, guiding and supporting me through every step.
Sarah is truly gifted and meant to do this work.

Sarah and her Spirit Molecule Retreats are truly visionary, necessary, and without an ounce of exaggeration, life transforming.
Recently I was blessed with the retreat of a lifetime.
It was 5 days of heaven on earth, spent in a paradise found on the shores of Bacalar lagoon, nestled amongst the trees of the Yucatan jungle and spent in the company of like minded beings who have become family.
More of this please!
Sarah and her Spirit Molecule Retreats are truly visionary, necessary, and without an ounce of exaggeration, life transforming.
Sarah shows a love for life and for people like few others I have had the privilege to meet.
The time and attention she put into preparing us all, guiding us all, and connecting us with each other even before the retreat started was magical to watch.
The accommodation and location could not have been more perfect. There was space to connect with each other and with ourselves, a place to ground and decompress and let go of all the trappings of our "normal" lives.
The food that our chef, Dalia, @liquidpranamexico prepared for us daily, nourished our light bodies, giving us the energy we needed to raise our frequencies and get the most out of our meditations, breathwork sessions, yoga and medicine ceremonies.
Each day revealed itself like a beautiful lotus flower, unfolding with beauty and surprise, allowing us all to shine and co create a wondrous and unforgettable time as a group.
Thank you Sarah for the work you are doing in this world. Your intentions of love, thoughtfulness and generosity are shining beacons for us all and these retreats are the medicine we all need as we become our higher selves.

... I got to feel the truth of who I am in such a powerful way.
This testimonial is for my beautiful Sarah, the leader of Spirit Molecule Retreat. I had the great, great fortune of being invited into this experience, and it was the pinnacle experience of my life. Hands down, the pinnacle experience of my life. And I've had a lot of great experiences.
What made it a pinnacle experience is, one, is Sarah is a true goddess. She knows how to create space and let the divine do its job. And she does it with a lot of presence and love and generosity of spirit. She chose a place that was sacred. This is the other thing she does, she allows everybody to come and share their gifts without ego, and everybody got to contribute to this space, and it was a true community.
Sarah also has the capacity to trust spirit and let it do what it needs to do. As far as the medicine, I think being in her space, the medicine could do its full job. The space and the medicine were both allowed to be what they needed to be and support each other. And because of that, I got to feel the truth of who I am in such a powerful way.
It was an honor to be with Sarah, and it was an honor to be with everyone in the group. So whoever shows up, it's like a spirit has orchestrated it beautifully and Sarah has trusted it. And when you're at a space like that, when I was at a space like that, I got to really be with it all in such a loving place.

The Spirit Molecule Retreat was the perfect blend of activity and time for reflection.
Sarah and the many skilled and genuine facilitators she incorporated into the experience, made the week into a genuine reset to life.
I was inspired to go back into my days at home feeling renewed and more prepared to maintain a new sense of embraced living. I felt safe to be me here, and I am eternally grateful for that. 🙂
Thank you Sarah!

I know that Sarah´s greatest talent is joining people together, with her vision of seeing how much we may all heal together! The Spirit Molecule Retreat is always creating the right combination.
Rebirthing through the Sacred Feminine!
I didn't know what to expect from my second encounter with Bufo, I really didn't! I remember my first Spirit Molecule Retreat…when my heart sang with excitement, joy, and the usual uneasiness of the unknown. Oh I yearned for the gathering again with the “safe haven” Sarah had shown me on my first encounter. I was ready to be totally vulnerable and go deeper a second time with the toad.
On this women’s retreat, I had the desire to put myself “out there” where I would be guided, surprised, nourished, contained. Deserving it all.
What does this experience really mean for me?
This experience taught me all about being taken by the Feminine, trusting it all, accepting in, dropping it all, dropping in, surrendering, letting go of the struggle, the endless chase, feeling not good enough, of not having enough, and giving myself permission to flow.
The question for me was: “What is the most effective way for me to express how much I want to love myself?”
And then Sarah showed us the way.
By being present.
The yoga.
The nourishing meals.
The group laughter.
Burning all our fears.
Healing tears.
The kind advice.
Journaling.
Sunrises at the rooftop (my personal favorite)
The raw truth.
Moving towards the unknown.
Flowing, dancing, feeling it all inside us.
My Janzu Water Therapy experience took me back to the womb and trusting…what a difficult thing for me! I felt like a wooden stick at first, but I kept telling myself to let go of my urge to control everything, which was displaying the source of my pain. I laughed, had fun, flowed, and I really enjoyed being bent underwater. Immersion of myself in Mother Nature and feeling the innocence of my soul was profound. I continued repeating to myself “remember this experience, you may be flexible, you may be guided, you don't have to know everything.”
Temazcal showed me I could witness alchemy inside me… herbs, clay, honey, singing and prayers.
While being in my own journey, I knew that I would take my role in my healing, but I was never going to be alone, the Tribe was all around me to cross the threshold.
Everything felt like the broken pieces inside me going back to their rightful place… in the most loving way. I saw each piece of me with awe, like a first encounter, discovering the treasures within. Bufo, a compassionate storyteller, that bears answers with its narrative, “this is where all the pain began. And this is how it feels to feel Spirit´s love inside”. This time it felt like electricity, like being recharged, like a shaken soft drink, ready to burst and to drop whatever is no longer needed!
I know that Sarah´s greatest talent is joining people together, with her vision of seeing how much we may all heal together! The Spirit Molecule Retreat is always creating the right combination. Catering to us, fusing us, and connecting us. Sarah has taught me that we are more powerful together, and that we may heal faster in caring, compassionate nooks. The place Sarah creates for us stays within us and may continue to exist within… rebirthing us through the Feminine connection to all there is!

Your life will never be the same. And you will no doubt be grateful for that.
I won't say that the decision to return for another sit with Bufo was easy, It definitely took me quite a few weeks to commit fully. Yet, in my heart I knew the answer from the beginning. There really wasn't any question about it. Bufo was calling me to return, and her effects in my life after just one ceremony were so impactful that I knew I must heed the call to discover what else she had to reveal.
At the time that I made the decision to return I knew I was taking a major risk. Yet, I also knew that whatever I needed to learn about myself would secure my future and my faith in the medicine's teaching would far surpass the risk. I will never forget the look on Madhu's face, after my first ceremony, when he assured me that my life would never be the same after Bufo. His beaming smile was infectious. And he was 100% correct.
My Inner Trust has been catapulted from having a vague idea of what my life was about to owning my path with 110% assurance that I am in fact living out my dharma.
I wanted to remain open when sitting with Bufo for the second time. The Toad medicine is so strong and so wise that I knew I didn't have much need to try and control the outcome. I had surrendered so deeply in the first journey and returned to my life content with a new depth of forgiveness and love that I really couldn't foresee what could be necessary beyond this new understanding of life.
I set an intention nonetheless. I went into the retreat desiring clarity for my purpose. I entered the Temezcal sensing Gaia's pull. In the womb of our Divine Mother I asked that my ancestors assist me in opening my heart and soul to be a vessel for her healing. I emerged from the Temezcal feeling grounded, stable and ready for whatever Bufo had to teach me the next morning. Yet, I had no idea what was about to transpire.
The ways in which plant medicine work through our consciousness is a Divine mystery that I will forever honor and be indebted to. My second journey didn't "appear" to me to be much like my first. But, then how could it! It was much more subtle, and clarity was certainly not what I was experiencing-initially. As I returned to awareness of my surroundings I felt much more of a tossle between the freedom I desired and the constrictions I was not ready to lift from myself.
I wanted to be at peace with the reality of having a different experience than before, than what it appeared my peers were experiencing around me. Sarah was so reassuring that my experience was my own and didn't need to look or feel any particular way. The medicine knows and all we need to do it trust.
The following weeks after retreat continued to be a very slow unfolding for me. Still remaining curious and open to the teachings, yet without any mind blowing revelations, I let go of any desire to be rocked to my core as I had after my first experience. I surrendered completely that there was something much different at play, and I was ready to be patient.
It has now been six weeks since my second sit with Bufo, in the company of some of the most talented and dedicated space holders you could ever ask for. My solo meditations still take me back to the family and the home that Sarah created with her team of providers. And now, no question remains in my mind or my heart about what I was meant to receive by sitting with Bufo a second time.
Clarity I sought, and clarity I have found. While I am still human and I still walk in momentary doubt here and there, there is never a moment that goes by that I question my union with Source. The depth of my faith and connection to our Divine Mother has been solidified in my heart. I now know, for the first time, that I never walk alone.
I feel the Divine presence in all that I do, all that I say, see, hear and feel. I never experience doubt when I wish to talk about my faith in Mother Earth and trust in the Universe's plan anymore. I feel words move through me with such ease, as if they are not mine to convey, but I am just a messenger of the heart of our Divine Mother.
I was a trusting person before Bufo. I was prepared for these teachings long before I had even heard of Toad medicine. This is part of the beauty of her workings. Yet, I would not be the confident, transformed and completely committed Lightworker I am today if it weren't for my ability to surrender to the unfoldings of Bufo working within me daily. I am grateful for the way the Toad medicine shook me up and got me to question myself and my own faith, in a subtle, gentle and knowing way.
And this is precisely the way the Spirit Molecule Retreat is orchestrated. The security, the peace, and the outstanding care team Sarah has put together to make this experience possible are the perfect recipe for a safe journey to the parts of us we otherwise aren't ready to face alone. Every element of the retreat is constructed in the same way the Bufo works through us, beautifully, boldly and brilliantly mirroring nature herself. Sarah, too, is fulfilling her dharma in creating the container for us to journey to the center of our heart's, in Bufo's company. I hope you too will choose to take this journey with her and her team. Your life will never be the same. And you will no doubt be grateful for that.

I am so grateful to be able to return to be with the medicine.
This was my second time sitting with Bufo. I am so grateful to be able to return to be with the medicine. I feel that Bufo is my teacher now and I continue to learn and receive messages as I integrate back into my life.
This sit with Bufo was much more gentle. My first time felt like all of the anger and resentment was releasing from my body. This time, I felt there was only a small amount left to release and then I felt love wash over my body.
My intention was to be open to giving and receiving love. And Bufo showed me that I must embrace more self love, which I think is the highest form of love.
I’ve realized that I love myself, but I am overly critical of myself. I’ve realized there are things from my past that have created patterns and stories that I tell myself. And now with this awareness, I can continue to release.
I am so grateful for Sarah and Madhu for holding space for us and knowing exactly what we need.
Returning to Casa Soham the second time was like returning home. It is so safe and beautiful.
Thank you.
I am love.

The Spirit Molecule Retreat is priceless because you cannot put a price on saving your life and your health.
Sarah is a compassionate, loving, generous and out-of-this-world person.
The Spirit Molecule Retreat is priceless because you cannot put a price on saving your life and your health.
Sarah has the expertise to handle all situations and you can feel free to express yourself without any shame or regrets.
She will hold you as you go into your darkest place and confront what is needed to grow and truly love your life.
I experienced many breakthrough moments, and with her loving care, I am loving my life and everyone around me.
It was a perfectly planned retreat for me to go and experience something completely new in a safe space.
Starting from the house, to the food, to the space to meditate and yoga, and adding in all the water activities like Janzu Water Therapy and cenote visits - it was a unique and unforgettable experience.
The food was amazing, I still have the memory of the different dishes tasted there. All organic, vegan and gluten free… and delicious. The taste of the fresh food was exquisitely accompanying what we had planned for the day.
The activities and the ceremony was beyond my expectations.
Sarah planned in a perfect way for each one of us to experience what we needed.
She pampered us with so many goodies…
It has been a few months and I still have breakthroughs that are helping me to grow as the amazing person that I am.
Sarah, from the beginning, months before the Spirit Molecule Retreat, prepared me with her amazing private sessions. This was the start of something that now has changed my way of seeing life.
I have no more words to express how wonderful Sarah is, but I will say that she is a loving person that will help you find yourself.
I will highly recommend The Spirit Molecule Retreat with the private integration sessions. This integrated way allowed me to be in a place where I can love myself, my family, the world, and the Universe.
Thank you so much Sarah! The experience is priceless, and I will always keep it in my heart.

Everything was spot on with attention to the smallest details.
The Spirit Molecule Retreat with Sarah was a very unique experience.
Sarah is a genuine and generous person.
Her presence and the way she can hold space for each person without judgment is memorable.
The retreat has a lot of fun activities, as well as heart opening moments.
It is a safe space to share your feelings.
It went beyond my expectations; the facilities are magical and the house is surrounded by lush jungle.
I couldn’t recommend this retreat more!
The ceremony was the highlight of the week…beautiful & life changing experience to remember forever.
Not to mention all the live music!
Everything was spot on with attention to the smallest details.

There are no words to express the beauty and truth that is Sarah.
There are no words… As everyone who sits with Bufo can relate, there just aren’t any words in the human language that could explain such a life-changing experience, and for that reason, I won’t even try.
There are no words to express the beauty and truth that is Sarah. This is my second retreat with Sarah and let's just say, it won’t be my last.
Sarah has a beautiful way of creating a space where everyone feels safe and held. Anyone on a healing journey knows it’s not always easy, but it’s often messy where we are able to see and create true lasting beauty in our lives.
The Spirit Molecule Retreat is one where you can show up in your messy and know that you will be held with so much love and compassion. There is something so beautiful about vulnerability and when a space is created where everyone can show up exactly where they are and without judgment, there’s a sense of the purest love and freedom.
I am so thankful for Sarah and her ability to not only create such a special healing space for others, but for her ability to show up in her own beautiful and messy perfect truth.
She is a true leader living her dharma and I will forever be grateful for her love and guidance.

I cannot thank Sarah enough for creating this retreat and for lovingly guiding me through this life-changing experience.
It's been two months since I returned home from the Spirit Molecule Retreat. I am grateful beyond words for the experiences I had and the insights I gained while there and since returning home.
The retreat I attended ended up being all women. The energy of all the women combined with the jungle and the lagoon was playful, supportive, and grounding. Sarah created a safe container for everyone there to be able to have vulnerable experiences. This was so important for me. I was able to let go and address things within myself that I hadn't even realized were causing issues in my life.
The preparation including somatic sessions with Sarah and a clean diet leading up to and during the retreat was integral to the experience. I was nervous about some aspects of the retreat beforehand, but Sarah listened to and addressed my concerns, and helped me feel comfortable in joining.
There is a measurable difference in my life before and after the retreat. I went into it with the intention of getting in tune with my body and mind. I gained many insights about that and so much more that has benefited me immensely in the past two months. Now I am more conscious of what I'm feeling in my body & my mind which has allowed me to be more intentional with my thoughts and my actions.
I left the retreat with fresh energy and a base from which to continue great habits. I met women who I will share this connection with for a lifetime. I cannot thank Sarah enough for creating this retreat and for lovingly guiding me through this life-changing experience.

Sarah creates a space filled with love, integrity and nourishment.
Photography has been a passion of mine for many years; whether observing through a humanitarian, travel, portrait or spiritual lens, I always feel immensely privileged to capture moments, places and people.
It was such a beautiful journey documenting Sarah's retreat. She holds her containers with compassionate care and an impressive attention to detail, and ensures that participants feel safe to release, welcome vulnerability, lean into trust, open their hearts and dance across the spectrum of emotions that may arise.
I know, because I witnessed and captured all of this over the course of four days. Deep reverence and surrender in ceremony; joy and playfulness in the fresh water cenotes; yogic and movement-based embodiment practices; re-birth through the elemental alchemy of temazcal; therapeutic water practices; soulful sound healing.
My presence was embraced by the group of women, which gave me permission to seamlessly drop into intimate moments with my camera.
It was truly a privilege to weave in and out of that magical container, and witness the beauty of each woman.
Sarah creates a space filled with love, integrity and nourishment. The photos speak to this, but if an image is not enough, I know that the language of the heart from all present also tells this beautiful story of journeying back home to self.

I cannot imagine my life without Bufo and I have Sarah to thank for that.
Previous journeys with Bufo Alvarius left me with many words, actions, and behaviors or thoughts that I was going to change. This journey with Bufo has left me with no words, no thoughts, no action items.
This journey let me be exactly who I am and where I am in this moment.
During this Bufo journey, I died.
This may sound harsh or scary to those who have not sat with Bufo yet, but just know you have nothing to fear, it was beautiful. I believe parts of me died during my previous journeys with Bufo, but this time I died and I was not scared, there was no fear, and I just accepted what was happening.
This time, all of me died and I am now back on this earth and in this body to do the work I am called to do.
My thinking mind wants to know all of the answers, it wants to know what I am supposed to do now, but then I am reminded that I don’t need to know now or maybe ever and the “answers” will come to me whenever they are supposed to come and as I am ready to receive them.
This was my third Spirit Molecule Retreat with Sarah and I will continue to return as the years go on. I cannot imagine my life without Bufo and I have Sarah to thank for that. This retreat marked one year since my life was forever changed. Saying I’m grateful does not even begin to express the immense love I have for this journey.
Thank you to Sarah for creating this beautiful space for us and thank you to the entire retreat family for showing up for ourselves and each other.

This has been one of the most life-changing experiences of my entire life, Bufo is a kick ass teacher.
I've been back from Spirit Molecule Retreat for a few weeks now. But there's a story behind it as I close my eyes. Bufo chose me, not the other way around. Sarah's first yoga session turned into a spiritual experience for me. "This is it!" I said as I returned with my partner. "I've discovered THE YOGA TEACHER!” Every class, something extraordinary would arise: an exceptional music would open my heart, a childhood memory would heal, and an incredible revelation would emerge. As a result, I began following her Instagram posts about her retreat. "Wow, how amazing would it be to go to her retreat?" I thought. My heart was racing with anticipation, and there was no better sign than this.
When we arrived on our first day, everyone was so kind, I felt so safe. I couldn't sleep with excitement the first night. And every day I barewitnessed magic, a mouth watering meal, a spontaneous stop by a cenote, a powerful temazcal, a deep conversation with one of my acquaintances. It just kept getting better and better.
Bufo provided me the strength to cross over by showing me a reliable space to release all of my fears and suffering. Sarah was soothing, a compassionate container, and a loving mother who inspired me to face my fears, let them go, and love like a warrior.
This has been one of the most life-changing experiences of my entire life, Bufo is a kick ass teacher.

I am so blessed to have found Sarah and made connections that will last a lifetime.
My experience with Sarah’s Bufo Retreat was one I will forever cherish.
She did such a wonderful job of setting the container early on so that when everyone arrived we were
comfortable with each other and already felt like family.
The somatic sessions leading up to the retreat in preparation were also very helpful.
This was my first time with the medicine so naturally I had some fears around the unknown, but with her method of the meditative (introduction) dose I slowly began to feel into the space and get acquainted with the spirit of Bufo.
The house we stayed in was beautiful, spacious, and accommodating.
Being right on the lagoon for daily swims, yoga, breath work classes, kayaking and meditations was something out of a dream.
The food was delicious. Very nourishing and made with so much love. I miss it daily.
I got Exactly what I needed and more from the retreat.
It has been one of the most significant experiences of my life, a beautiful journey of dying and being reborn into the “ultimate love”.
It has changed the lenses from which I view the world in the best possible way.

Thank you Sarah for creating a safe container for us all to find healing and for us healers to hone our skill.
I experienced my first Spirit Molecule retreat recently …. I was connected with Bufo Alvarius facilitators from all over the country in a very idyllic setting.
Sarah is very attentive and caring with each attendee and a great retreat leader with a calming presence.
I feel richer and empowered from this experience.
I taught Breathwork classes every morning and served Sacred Bufo in the afternoon.
I look forward to more retreats in the future and growing this community.

This was truly a magical experience. Sarah, you made us all feel so held and supported through every step of this journey. I went in with one intention and it became so clear that the path forward was something else entirely, but interconnected.
Bufo told me not to put the cart before the horse (a good reminder for me). I would highly recommend this experience to anyone that is looking and ready to make a radical transformation in their life.

Sarah put together such a beautiful retreat, created a safe space, and ultimately prepared me to experience the most powerful, yet beautiful experience of my life.
I'll say I didn't know what to expect from this retreat, but Sarah did an amazing job of answering all my questions, concerns, doubts and prepared me through the pre-integration call we did. I went in with an open mindset and honestly that's all you have to do. Everything else is just a plus! The venue, location, food, and activities really tied everything together for me.
So much so, I didn't want to come back "home". The "spirit molecule" truly impacted my way of thinking and living my life as I returned home and got back to my day-to-day activities. I highly recommend this retreat, if you're looking for a space to connect, allow yourself to integrate with nature, and most importantly yourself. Sarah, thank you so much for an amazing experience.

Where to begin, just Wow Wow Wow. The Spirit Molecule Retreat completely changed my life.
To begin with, Sarah created a safe space for us to be vulnerable. She is so kind and trustworthy. She nudged me to dig deeper, share more, and those gentle nudges led to greater transformation. I was at the lowest point in my life. Although my life seemed great on the surface, I was miserable. I was angry all the time. I couldn’t focus. I didn’t want to be around anyone. I was always worried about everything. I had tension throughout my entire body. I had night sweats. I was on all kinds of supplements for stress and anxiety. I just couldn’t shake it no matter what I did or tried.
Going into the retreat, I did not know what to expect. I put my trust in Sarah, in the Universe, in G-d to guide me. I set the intention of freedom — I thought this was freedom from others. I learned it was really freedom from myself. Freedom from the anxiety and depression that had been gripping me for years. Freedom from the inability to sit still. Freedom from the lack of confidence and self trust. Freedom from the anger and resentment that I tried to let go of but had too much power over me. Freedom from my mind and my thoughts. And I got that freedom and even more than I imagined. I feel that I have a fresh start. I can begin again. I can find joy in my life again. I can truly be happy again. I can just be.
Before the retreat, I was always doing doing doing and moving moving moving. Everything was hard and stressful. And now things come to me with ease because I am at ease and at peace. I Am.

The Spirit Molecule Retreat truly exceeded my expectations. Sarah did a phenomenal job in orchestrating a safe and successful Bufo Retreat experience.
She abundantly covered every possible aspect of preparation from pre-integration, transportation and accommodations to nourishment, body care, safety, comfort, artistic healing, and even time for group FUN in the cenotes! I was 100% confident in Sarah as a facilitator. Despite the fact that I had never encountered Bufo prior to this experience, I felt comfortable with knowing very little about what the journey would entail, simply because of my confidence in Sarah as a spiritual guide and trusted friend. Even lacking knowledge of the facilatator himself wasn't alarming to me, based solely on trusting Sarah's own intuition.
In return, I was far from disappointed! In fact, my overall experience in journey with Sarah and Madhu, the Bufo guide, left me in complete awe of the human's ability to simply be a vessel for Mother Earth's medicine to do her work. It was an experience of utter beauty to be surrounded in pure love and acceptance in this way. Given the creation of the sacred space and authenticity of the individuals present in Ceremony, surrendering to the teaching that Bufo was offering in that moment, was only natural.
This experience was an enormous gift to my life and that of my children, and my parents as well. I am happy to speak at length about the pleasant experience in and post-ceremony. I have much more to speak on the integration of the revelations into my day to day life, as well. I am forever grateful to have been gifted this experience.
