Shamanic Retreats in Maine

 Dear Tami and John, thank you for providing such a wonderful experience. I had no idea what to expect, and each place we stepped into was filled with thought and meaning, which brought me great inner peace - well, once I worked with the uncomfortable pieces of myself. This retreat has been a life changer. Thank you. And John, the foods you prepared were filled with so much nourishing love. Each meal was filled with delight. Thank you. Much love to you both, Gayle G.,  Registered Nurse

The Shamanic Retreat with Tami & John benefited tremendously. It’s helped me take some really challenging steps forward, which have been deeply healing, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Working with a small, intimate and open group of like-minded people provided a very safe and loving space for this important inner work, allowing us to connect and support one another without fear or judgment. Expect the unexpected, and welcome it into your heart!

Stan Kerry, High School Teacher

The shamanic retreat was hard work, but so juicy and the more I learn to lean into the hurt, the more my heart opens, the more I let go of, and the more I am at peace with myself and my whole world. That feeling I got at retreat of being home within my own heart for the first time has stayed with me.  I am forever changed!!  I have a sense of happiness and contentment that I either forgot a loooong time ago or I never knew what being happy felt like.  I don’t know which.  What I do know is that I love the feeling of being happy and at home with myself.  It is amazing and bewildering all at the same time.  I know I still have petals to pull back, of the rose not the onion, ha-ha) and every time I think about that I’m like, shit! You mean it gets better than this?!?  I know that it does and I know there is even more happiness and love for me to find for myself, so I’ll keep showing up, shedding layers and stories and stepping into my skin that always glowed and glistened, that just got dirty and dull with life over time. Laurie Hayden - Massage Therapist and Sacred Healer

WOW! I'm just full of gratitude and emotions. I can't begin to share how it really meant to me that my co-peers held and encompassed me in a time where I didn't want to be seen. This reaffirmed that when this group was formed I was meant to be part of it. I feel as though I have gained some "forever" friends, who share a deep connection. I will carry this in me heart for a long long time. The journey has brought me home to me. For this, I am grateful. Whatever comes up now, I will walk with, soar with, heal with, and walk well with the lesson with love. The experience of the Shamanic Retreat was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I learned so much about myself, and got many answers. The Food was delicious, and could have as much as needed to nourish my being. The accommodations... I give it 5 stars! Hands Down! The teachings, the experience, truly more that I can put into words. I highly recommend this retreat - and I am coming back! I am rejuvenated, connected, open, and ready to live my "I AM" - shining the brightest from my heart. PS. Libby is a pure delight! Thank you! OXO Jenn Richeson, Sacred Healer

I learned a TON about who I am, and what "Tami Calls" holding and binding me from being able to see my future self. The Re-Birthing... um... I can't begin to describe the feeling, WOW, only that it really feels like I am showing up for myself and others in a new way. Tami and John, I can't thank you enough for  holding the space for me to alter the course of my life... I was heading down the rabbit hole, and not in a good way. I am now living life on PURPOSE, with my plan in mind. Much love to you both.

I have been looking forward to this Retreat for a year. Last year it was full and I couldn't get in. I know now, I was meant to be with this group. This weekend was beyond my expectation. Delving into my inner world, the dark places of my being was terrifyingly freeing. I've never felt so grounded and free in my entire life. I slept, I ate, I river bathed, and I made some really great friends. I returned home with Peace, Love, and Courage. Thank you from every fiber of my being. Jess Clark, Registered Nurse

Just back from the most incredibly enlightening 3-day retreat on the Mattawamkeag River.
Feeling so blessed to have had the privilege to be in the company of so many beautiful souls, and for us all to journey together, with such an inspiring teacher, Tami Rogers.
I highly recommend Tami’s retreats, if you are seeking something more from within yourself, you would not find a more experienced, patient, compassionate, light teacher, to take you deeper within, to enable you to discover who you really are!
Thank you never seems quite enough, but thank you Tami from deep within my heart. And a huge thank you also to the beautiful Souls who helped during the retreat. 

Natalie Mennington, Social Worker

I've trained with Tami in the Healing Arts and she always puts out challenges that I now know don't scare me anymore. I am ready to live and breathe me. I am ready to use these new tools to heal self and others. This Shamanic Retreat said to me "It's time Missy to use your inner tools and there is no problem that you can't over come and work through. The experience far exceeded my expectations, which were all ready pretty high. Since the confirmation of my enrollment, the journey was filled with intention of light, love, healing, and GREAT laughter. The meals were AMAZING! Each meal was prepared with intention to nourish the mind, body, and Spirit. My cabin was so cozy, clean, and very comfortable. In my heart of hearts I now have tools to move forward on my journey. When I feel stuck, I now know I can pull them out and put them to use.  Tami and John, Thank you with all my heart. Love, Missy A. Reiki Master Teacher

I have been working with Tami for several years, and I have discovered so much about myself, made peace with myself and others and seen the world from a truly beautiful perspective. I am the most grounded and happiest that I have ever known myself to be. My Journey has been raw and full of emotion at times, but as the layers of trauma were released, through the support and guidance of Tami the true ME has begun to emerge.
Thank you!
Love and Light

I am so thankful for this retreat. it open the door for me to step into my shadows and be held by the group with such love, compassion, and understanding, I am ever so thankful for this kind of support. I am honored. Flowing forward, I feel I don't have to try so hard to be me, and just let me be me . I'm pretty AWESOME! Damn.

The overall experience of the retreat just completely blew me away by all aspects. The positivity, acceptance, and welcoming nature of both the physical grounds and the emotional beings Tami and John , you both reached above what I could imagine. The food was phenomenal, and hard not to over-indulge. The lodging and showers were so comfy, I could have stayed for weeks. This is such a place of love shared by Tami and John. I feel so blessed to have shared it with them. Thank You Thank you.

I am in a place of acceptance of the unseen and in my power. I am Peace. Fire. I shed old unwanted skin, and now digesting and learning from that. I am supported by the archetypes... and ready to let things just be what the are when they need to just be. 

Love Always, Brett Thompson

A truly, brilliant weekend, thank you so much Tami and John for your wonderful teachings, guidance, wisdom, care, humor and delicious meals.  And thank you for taking such good care of us all. I waited to send you this note so that I could share the benefits of the Retreat... all I can write today is TRANSFORMATION. I can see and feel the shifts in my every day life with family and friends, and how my interaction with patients has deepened. I am humbly grateful. Thank you.

Lou Lockmann, DO

I don't know if I've ever been in a place, this long, with so many open hearts, and no judgement. Even though we walked through our shadows, it felt like seeing them with more love. Often times I think I'm being mindful out there in the world... but can see now, I was sort of drowning in my own "Stuff" and could not get to that mindful place. Removing myself from my every day norm to be at the retreat - helped me get to that mindful place. I don't believe I could have got to where I am now without the full emersion of the Shamanic Retreat Weekend, which is food for the Soul. 

I am ready to use these new healing tools, to dream, dance, to fulfill my purpose, and to realize the gifts I have within me.  I am ready to be seen... dark and light. I am grateful for all I've seen and learned - just treasure after treasure. I WILL treasure the weekend always. M. Jane S., Interior Designer

I didn’t know what to expect from this retreat, it just felt like the right thing for me. It’s brought insights along the way, but the enabling of deeply rooted emotional shifts have been what has helped me most, I think. (So far…)
The journey work we learned has been a wonderful tool in my life.  I loved being part of the small group, to be able to share and feel supported and also to hear other’s experiences – plus the energy created was amazing!

Sally Tauplin, Yoga Teacher

Why am I here? I asked myself. No drum... no rattle... (pause)... I was called, and I said YES, without knowing why. How can I heal without wanting interaction from others...? Yet, I showed up and the retreat was so AMAZING.  I feel as though I stepped out of some heavy amour that I didn't even know I was wearing. I just let it go. I am excited about my life, and I haven't felt this way in a long time, a REALLY long time. Thank you, and thank you to all who witnesses the vulnerable parts of my soul. Thank you for giving me permission to go there, and just be  with that... letting go... and this is purely ok. The teaching, inspiration, and limitless enthusiasm in Tami's passion was lovely. The lodging... (LOL) way better than I had anticipated and imagined in my mind when my sister asked me to go off-grid with her. I am flowing forward with a sense of excitement in my future. I came here wanting to shut down and heal... and now... I realize I can do this work with an open heart... not closing it and protecting it in order to heal. Thank you Beautiful Woman.
