If you are considering going to Oaxaca to learn about the ancient and current ways of healing then I say look no further than traveling with Sarah Hope. Everything about my journey to Oaxaca with her was steeped in respect, care, knowledge, wisdom, love and joy. From our first zoom call, through her meeting me at the airport, our time in Oaxaca city learning from Zapotec guides, on up into the mountains and all the work we did there, and then down to the beach for a few days of integration, everything, absolutely everything was held with Sarah’s constant attention and care. Her loving relationship with our curandero family was obvious. My experience in the mountains was profound and still lives in me all these months later. I thought I was going to learn more about my own work in this field. What it turns out I came for was deep healing and being folded into a new loving community of healers. Thank you, Sarah. You are a blessing.

Traveling to Oaxaca for this incredibly special experience was a life highlight. Our time was both colorful and celebratory while also being profoundly cathartic, grounding, and spiritually rich. Sarah and Beto lead with compassion and the family at Maliollin work with integrity and authenticity to this sacred lineage of plant medicine. As a professional in this field, I can’t recommend this retreat highly enough for those who are ready to dive deep for the sweet rewards of human healing

II had an absolutely incredible time traveling in Oaxaca, Mexico, with Sarah and Beto. The culture, sights, sounds, and flavors in the city were expansive and stimulating and provided ground for the retreat to San Jose del Pacifico, where time slowed and senses deepened. The time spent healing there with the family at Maliollin was very rich, individualized, and impactful. I felt so well cared for and respected by the atmosphere generated, able to both jump high and dive deep! Looking back, I continue to feel inspired by the wide range of experiences that were arranged and provided by Sarah and Beto, and by their enduring attention to the group's needs. What a unique opportunity they offer to learn about and experience the cultural healing legacy that is alive and well in Oaxaca!
