Chef Marion
Cascio - January 27-29, 2012
Marion grew up in Germany where she learned cooking and baking from her mom and grandmother. After five years studying French cuisine and hotel management, she moved to America.
Marion found her way to the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California, where she worked as a chef and played an integral part in the creation of the Esalen Cookbook. While living in Big Sur, she and her husband also created an off-the-grid, sustainable farm raising goats, bees, and chickens, along with an extensive vegetable, herb and fruit tree garden.
Her cuisine draws from her vast culinary experience and her passion for fresh, local and organic food. She lives now in Ashland, Oregon, where she works in a restaurant and runs her own catering company.

Tarot Consultation with Jacqueline
Tarot is a ceremonial tool of divination that can target specific questions or
address the larger picture. The evocative images reveal the designs of your life
stories. Each card turns a page and offers new possibilities. Mystery is distilled
into a greater understanding of your life situation. The reading is an invocation
of empowerment of choice. The visual medium of the tarot cards translate into
an alchemy of the heart.

Yoga With Sarana
May 18 -20, 2012 and June 22-24, 2012
Please join us for a weekend of breathing, chanting, asana and soaking in the healing mineral waters of Wilbur. Come strengthen your practice while relaxing and rejuvenating your body and mind. We'll step back from our daily routines and retreat to this sacred land, home to healing waters that have been used for renewal for centuries.
Students will practice yoga on Wilbur's beautiful yoga deck, cradled in nature with the sounds of the breeze and the creek. We will begin each day with chanting and pranayama, followed by breakfast and then an active morning session. In the afternoon there will be time for bathing, hiking, massage and personal time. We will gather in the late afternoon for a restorative session followed by a delicious dinner.
