Learn the Pathway to Personal Freedom

International best-selling author and spiritual teacher, don Miguel Ruiz, has shared his family’s teachings globally through the books of Toltec wisdom which have sold over 10 million copies alone in the US, and been published in 40 languages worldwide. His sons don Miguel Ruiz Jr. and don Jose Ruiz have joined together for this unique workshop to share the wisdom from the Toltec tradition, which places a special emphasis on unconditional love and personal healing as the means by which we create transformation in ourselves and the world.

During this immersive weekend with the Ruiz brothers, Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. share lessons from his new book, The Mastery of Life: A Toltec Guide to Personal Freedom, which represents the journey, or quest, that we all undertake to find inner peace. You will discover the transformative symbolism behind the sacred pyramids and plazas of Teotihuacan and how they lead Toltec Warriors to let go of their domestication, false fear, and self-judgment. 

Modern-day Shaman and internationally bestselling author of The Fifth Agreement, don Jose Ruiz shares teaching methods to apply messages from his books, The Medicine Bag: Shamanic Rituals and Ceremonies for Personal Transformation, and his latest release, Shamanic Power Animals.

Ultimately, the Toltec tradition teaches that mastering life is key to enjoying it. Through this program, you will take a deep look at what you believe about yourself and the world around you, and to notice what you habitually do—how you act and react based on what you believe. Then, once you have become more aware of what you think, how you act, and where those thoughts and actions originate, you will be invited to practice new ways of thinking, acting, and being that are more aligned with your true nature and your highest good.

Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. and don Jose Ruiz will teach you to

  • Become aware of how you confuse what you know, for who you are

  • Gain awareness of how you have created your reality

  • Release the fear of what you are without your beliefs

  • Embrace unconditional love

  • Make new agreements that are more in line with your true authentic self

This life-changing program will help you to return to your innate wisdom, and live your life based on truth. 

Don’t miss this opportunity to master your life—and truly enjoy it.
