-Ìyá Omiyẹmi Artisia Green

“Everything from the clarity with trip preparations, ground travel, the accommodations, the nourishing meals, and the daily itinerary was organized and thoughtful. Thoughtfulness extended to considerations of what may be spiritually required to bring a collective of women together for the process of revivification … the bush bath, alone, was worth the price of the trip. The mythical grounds of Santosha were the perfect setting for a serene conversation or encounter with one’s ancestors. However one might experience the “conversation,” I can confidently say that Ìyá Simone and Ìyá Josephine are knowledgeable, and adept in their craft and acts of care. Make the investment in yourself, surrender to the experience, and follow the ancestral wisdom revealed to you through the retreat. You will not regret it.”
