- All meals and drinks (including alcohol)
- TAO Wellness Center facilities and classes offered there

- Is there a charge for the optional excursions? How do I pay for them?
Yes, the optional excursions will have a separate fee. You can sign up for and pay for the excursions when you are at the retreat. We will post a description and prices for the optional excursions when we have the schedule.
- Are Continuing Education credits available for health professionals?
Yes, there are 10 CE credits approved for RN, MFT, and LCSW. Healing Journeys is approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing, Provider No. CEP 10808 and by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences, Provider No. PCE 953. Many other boards will accept these CE credits; please check with your particular board.
There is an additional processing fee of $25 for CEs. We regret there can be no refunds for CE payments.
Registration for CEs is separate from registration for the retreats. Click to Register for Continuing Education.
- Can I stay longer than the 5 nights/6 days of the retreat?
Yes, you may stay up to 3 additional nights. The cost is $115/night per person for double occupancy, and $145/night for single occupancy.
- Can I invite my family members or friends?
Yes, the retreats are open to everyone, and everyone is welcome.
- Do I need a passport?
Yes, though there are some other documents that can be used in lieu of a passport if you are not traveling by air. You can learn about them here: Mexico Travel Documents.
Click for Passport Fee Information.
Click for Passport Processing Times. It normally takes 4—6 weeks after application to receive your passport. You can expedite your application so it takes 2—3 weeks from the Department of State, and you can find other services online to get it faster, for a fee.
- What airport should I fly in to?
Fly to and from Cancun International Airport, which is the closest airport. You will be picked up there and driven to TAO Inspired Living, and returned there after your retreat. This is included in your registration.
- Is there a group rate for air fare?
No. We’ve looked into a group rate and learned that group rates tend to be higher than individual rates since they get held early on. You can either make your own reservations or work with a travel agent. If you don’t have a travel agent, Malcom Potter has experience working with TAO and is familiar with this destination. If you’d like to work with him, he will arrange your flights for you for a fee of $25. His contact information is in the question below.
- Can you recommend a travel agent?
You can make your airline reservations however you choose. If you’d like to work with an agent, we suggest Malcolm Potter because he has worked with TAO Inspired Living on other events and he is familiar with getting to that destination. He will make your flight reservations for you for a $25 fee.

- When should I plan to arrive?
If possible, make your arrangements so you will be there by 6 p.m. the first day of your retreat, either October 29th, or November 5th. There will be a Welcome Dinner and short talk with Jonathan Ellerby, starting at 6 p.m.
- Will these retreats be repeated next year?
We don’t know if any retreats will be scheduled after this year. What we do know, for sure, is that this incredible price will never be repeated. If you think you’d like to attend, this is the year to do it.
