"In just 4 days, you can learn how to quickly
return
to your powerful center,
activate your reservoir of quiet strength and enjoy 'inner peace'
as your predominant
way of being
...no matter what is going on in your world."
From the Desk of Mary Allen:
Tuesday, 8:47am
Hi...
As a Conscious Achiever, by most people's standards, you're already successful in one or more areas of life. You enjoy living into your full potential, realizing creative goals, and raising your standards. You value financial success, a purposeful career, meaningful relationships, a healthy body, a well organized environment and contribution to the world. But, you're interested in another level.
You want all the joys of success, yet have a sincere desire for something deeper. Maybe that's why you ventured on a path of personal growth, so many years ago. You're committed to evolve spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Enjoying deep everyday inner peace is ultimately a must for you.
Uncertainty, change and economic instability is at an all time high. No matter the level of success, the reality is most people are experiencing greater inner turmoil than ever before. As Conscious Achievers, others are looking to you during these difficult times for leadership, guidance and comfort.
Even the smartest, wisest and most
spiritually evolved are being tested today.
Have you ever noticed how challenging it is to be the pillar of strength, wisdom and support for others, when your own inner peace gets disrupted?
Yet, it's more critical than ever to be connected with our inner power, so we can more gracefully navigate these times -- and empower, serve and inspire others. Who teaches us to do this?
In a recent survey, people report "financial pressure" as the #1 inner peace culprit in their lives. Even my high net worth clients feel more vulnerable, taking its toll on health, relationships and productivity.
But, we all know, it doesn't stop there...
If You Ever…
Find your "buttons" get pushed by significant relationships and you speak in a "less than pleasant voice," find yourself apologizing later or just feel aggravated inside...
Wish life's distractions could stop (email is a biggie, eh?), so you could simply be present, peaceful and productive...
Indulge in turmoil when making big decisions, noticing how the anxiety builds the longer you dwell in "all the options" and delay choice (regarding children, work, relationships or any "what next?")
Feel guilty spending time at the office, thinking you "should be" with family. Or feel guilty when you're with family, feeling the tug to work...
Experience your mind racing because it's so full of ideas...
Find it frustrating when your partner's desire for sex and intimacy are mismatched with yours, yet you have a sense of what's possible...
Have difficulty switching gears to relaxation mode (i.e. vacation, sleeping, or winding down from work)...
Find it challenging to access inner peace after receiving "disappointing news" (i.e. unfavorable medical diagnosis, loss of business, another's misfortune, etc.)...
Feel hampered in fully expressing your gifts to the world because of conditioned thoughts, feelings or behaviors (you may even know what they are, but remain unduly influenced by them)...
Enjoyed times where life flows seamlessly…then, suddenly, find yourself frustrated, overwhelmed or emotionally distraught – then unable to get back to “flow”…
Read lots of books, listen to CD’s and attend seminars, only to catch yourself, occasionally, NOT living what you "know"...
Wished you knew how to tap into your calm center, no matter what is going on externally…
Wanted to be guided to a profound spiritual awakening (or deepen the one you've had), so you can realize the magnificence of who you are and simply live the life you know you’re meant to live…
How would you like to push the pause button
--
and learn how to effectively transform
inner turmoil to inner peace
-- for yourself or others --
in the most challenging of moments?
The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat is about helping you tap into inner peace on the inside, even when there is chaos on the outside. (Right now, we're all being tested by the dramas of the world and it is easy to get caught up in them. But, it doesn't have to be that way.)
What if I told you...
In just 4 days, you can... begin cultivating “inner peace” as your predominant way of being, learn effective tools to help you quickly return to your peaceful power in any moment and learn exactly how to reconnect to your reservoir of inner peace when you feel depleted.
You can also master the processes to help others do the same. (It's relatively easy, when you have the skills.)
AND, as long as you're willing to look, you can have a "radical awakening," a doubt-free, limitless recognition of who you are -- that needs no improvement.
Helping others through this process is my strength and passion -- and the focus of our upcoming Inner Peace Immersion Retreat.
As important as inner peace is to our well-being, there is NO one addressing this topic in such a comprehensive, practical and holistic way.
Yes, it’s true…
Hi, I’m Mary Allen, America’s Inner Peace Coach and Life Coach Mary to those who know me. I’m author of The Power of Inner Choice and host of Conversations with the Masters, interviewing best-selling authors including Wayne Dyer, Byron Katie, Ken Wilber, Caroline Myss, Dr. David Hawkins, Debbie Ford and countless others.
For the last 12 years I’ve been coaching people just like you…(along with numerous millionaires and even a couple billionaires) supporting them in accessing more joy, cultivating their own quiet strength, and handling challenges that get in the way of a fulfilling and peace-filled life. My passion is helping "conscious achievers" experience greater everyday inner peace, as they realize their goals.
So, What Is Inner Peace?
"Inner peace" is its simplest form is freedom of the mind -- from annoyance, distraction, anxiety or an obsession. It's a state or condition characterized by tranquillity or serenity.
Dr. David Hawkins, author of Power vs. Force, categorizes "peace" as one of the highest energy vibrations on his Map of Consciousness.
The state of inner peace increases our ability to focus, make clear decisions and handle challenges with ease. Inner peace allows productivity, creativity and abundance to flow more freely. And it strengthens our immune systems, minimizes the impact of disease and brings harmony (and sanity) to relationships. And, most would agree...it sure feels good!
But, more than a favorable emotional state, it is the natural by-product of something greater. This kind of inner peace is the awareness of who you are, just under the usual dynamics of human feeling, thought, behavior and personality. It emerges when we recognize the context in which all of life arises. My mentor and coach, Arjuna Ardagh, refers to such a shift in awareness as a "radical awakening.
What is "Radical Awakening?"
As quoted, from Arjuna's national best-seller The Translucent Revolution: "It is the moment when you taste reality outside the limiting confines of the mind, when you know yourself to be limitless, much bigger than, yet containing, the body, beyond birth and death, eternally free. Despite the activity of thought and feeling, you know yourself to be the silence experiencing that movement."
A radical awakening gives us ongoingaccess to reality as peaceful and infinite, even in the midst of external noise.
When we're grounded in this recognition, anything can arise -- reactions, feelings, thoughts, unexpected circumstances -- and at the core of our being, we know ourselves to be the silence experiencing the moment -- or simply peace. We are pure awareness, deeper than any changing human dynamic.
And, this isn't something just a few lucky
sages have experienced.
Over the last 17 years, Arjuna has spoken to thousands of people who have had similiar shifts of consciousness. Maybe you have too. (Or maybe you're on the verge...) In 2003, I stumbled into a radical awakening. Since then, my life is dedicated to helping people access the kind of serenity and awareness I tapped into.
Spiritual teacher, Adyashanti, shared with Arjuna, "When he started to teach a few years ago, perhaps one in twenty of his students had such an awakening. Today he estimates more than 60% of his students do."
Many of my clients and friends have since had "radical awakenings."
When you are connected to this kind of "inner peace," you live from a sharpened state of awareness,
fully present with "what is." You embrace all aspects of your humanity, compassionately accept others for who they are (and who they aren't) and dance with the realities of life with greater lightness.
"Peace is aligning with 'what is',
and not resisting it." -- Mary Allen
Others report, a more powerful connection to their Higher Self, feeling guided and more "on purpose." When unencumbered by the ego mind, you are free to spontaneously express your most authentic self, and express your gifts to the world. Simultaneously, your capacity to receive abundance becomes truly infinite.
The Truth About "Radical Awakenings"...
Radical Awakenings are almost always significant turning points in people's lives. Yet, many falsely believe, "When I attain enlightenment -- my life will be perfect and emotional turmoil will vanish forever."
If you've had a radical awakening, you know this isn't what happens.
Every human being -- including you, me and the Zen Masters are ALL very human, subject to the thoughts, feelings and physical limitations that come with living in a human body.
Fortunately, Everyday Inner Peace is NOT about experiencing euphoria 24/7, removing all challenges from your life, eliminating all stressful thoughts, emotions or reactions…
"Peace.
It does not mean to be in a place where
there is no noise, trouble or hard work...
It means to be in the midst of those things
and still be calm in your heart."
- Unknown
It's unrealistic to expect all stress, all reactions and all moments of temporary insanity to disappear completely. Although that would be nice, wouldn’t it? The reality is -- regardless of our awakening -- we’re all human.
Even if you've already had an awakening, additional skills, powerful practices and experienced wisdom are invaluable to actually live into your awakening more deeply. (This is why Arjuna Ardagh's "awakening coaching," has become so popular.)
For the deepest experience of "everyday inner peace," integrating BOTH your "radical awakening" with a step-by-step roadmap, including tools and strategies is essential. At the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat, we'll deliver both. You won't find this unique combination anywhere!
Everyday Inner Peace IS
Allowing Inner Peace To
Become Your Predominant
Level Of Consciousness... Being Present With "What Is."
When "everyday inner peace" is alive, you're able to more quickly return to inner peace when life throws you a curve ball. You'll notice what thoughts are influencing you when you’re in a state of overwhelm and meet them with compassionate understanding. You'll reconnect again and again with a peaceful and truer reality inside of you.
Remember, it's not about doing this perfectly!
This kind of inner peace is available to every human being (including you!)
Last summer, I lead a short, pilot workshop called "The Inner Peace Infusion Weekend," testing the format, content and exercises for this upcoming 4 day retreat. (More about that in a minute.) The feedback was even better than we’d hoped. In fact, we were all astounded!
.
“The retreat allowed me to integrate
all my parts and pieces, goals and
dreams into a collective whole being.”
“I feel more “whole” in my ability to be a walking and talking innerly
peaceful man. The retreat has allowed me to integrate all my parts and pieces, goals and dreams into a collective whole being. I’m noticing faster when I am out of touch with my inner peace and shift. I call it being a “proactive peace creator.”
– Jim Ross, San Jose, CA
“I now have less resistance to accepting my
imperfections. I am more
available to
others
and to have deeper intimacy with my partner.”
“I enjoyed the real-time application of the inner peace tools in a variety of exercises and small group sharing. I now have less resistance to accepting my imperfections. Moving forward I’m aware of more facets of my wholeness. As a result, I am more available to others and to have deeper intimacy with my partner.”

“I love the concept of looking at ‘challenge’ as
an opportunity to bring myself to peace.”
“I love the concept of looking at challenge as an opportunity to bring myself to peace. I feel a sense of calm and hope. I learned that it’s not about having inner peace constantly, but about how quickly we can bring ourselves back to peace. Before I used to try and FILL my time and space, now I simply embrace peace and stillness more than before!

“…A wonderful opportunity to explore the whole
concept of inner peace in sacred space… yielding countless ‘ah-hah's.”
“The Inner Peace Infusion Retreat provided a wonderful opportunity to explore the whole concept of inner peace in sacred space in a way that afforded participants a comfortable learning environment. What I enjoyed most was the chance to do my own work all the while being supported by Mary as facilitator and honored by the other participants. I found myself able to hold a space of learning and exploration yielding countless “ah-hah's.”

They enjoy greater everyday inner peace
… And you can too!
Here’s how other’s have expanded
inner peace in their lives…
“I am 49 and have never read or bought a self help
book before, didn’t think I needed them…”
“I am 49 and have never read or bought a self help book before, didn’t think I needed them; figured those are for people with problems---however when I encountered a situation where I desperately needed to understand my longtime boyfriend’s unexplainable struggle with inner peace with marriage, I read Mary’s book, ‘The Power of Inner Choice.’ The truth is, it should be called the Power of Inner Peace. It changed my life as it so clearly explained the sources of stress, how we create it, how to recognize it and how to deal with it, and therefore achieve inner peace. It was gold. It was power. Finally something tangible I could discuss with him that we both could understand. Nothing else came close. Needless to say we overcame the self created stresses, (and more importantly became more aware of the recognition when it starts to happen) and are now very happily married and have total inner peace with marriage. Thanks Mary!”

“I learned to understand and accept all those
negative emotions and let go of the pain.”
“I struggled with the resentment, anger and frustration I felt from the results of divorce after 6 years of marriage. I learned to understand and accept all those negative emotions and let go of the pain. I was able to move on to an amazing relationship with exciting new goals. I learned to make the most of every day and really understand what I wanted in my life. When my partner of 3-1/2 years died in front of me unexpectedly, I was devastated. With the foundation I had built from the wealth of knowledge from Mary’s book, programs and coaching, I was able to work through my grief and take care of my responsibilities. The NOW practices were really helpful to create focus when I felt overwhelmed with emotions and unable to function. I've learned so much from Mary in the last 5 years, that I've recently started doing the exercises again as I explore new goals and relationships. While I still miss Carl, I’m at a place of peace.”

“I've become more masterful at quickly
returning to inner peace when I need it most.”
"As a single mom of a three year old and two businesses to run, it's not always easy. There is a lot to juggle and challenge my inner calm. But, because of Mary, I've become more masterful at quickly returning to inner peace when I need it most. I'm inspired to take the time needed to keep inner peace alive in my life. It makes me a better mom, a better business owner and gives me a life I love."

“I am a successful entrepreneur, but I often forget about myself and let adrenaline take the best of me. Mary has guided me to slow down and find my own inner peace.”
"Mary has made an enormous difference in my life and I do not say that lightly. I am a successful entrepreneur, but I often forget about myself and let adrenaline take the best of me. She has not only guided me to slow down and find my own inner peace, but she has guided me to being graceful in business. When I am seeking inspired solutions in my life and business I reach out to Mary."

“Clients are still amazed at how
peaceful I am during tax season."
"As an accountant, I grew frustrated with the predictable stress associated with tax season. I hired Mary to help me maximize my inner peace throughout this time…and affectionately called it, 'Zen and the Art of Tax Season.' For the last three seasons, I have enjoyed an inner peace other accountants can't imagine. It's fun to surprise people. Clients are still amazed how peaceful I am during tax season. I wouldn't have it any other way. Mary has an extraordinary skill for bringing one from where ever they may be - back into the present moment. She can take you from distraction to ‘aha’ and peace in record time.”

“Mary's taught me how to create a sense of calm even in the midst of days spent juggling priorities
...and other unexpected surprises in life.”
“Mary's taught me how to create a sense of calm even in the midst of days spent juggling priorities in my business, dealing with challenging relationships, and all the other unexpected surprises in life. I can't thank her enough for giving me the tools to step back, re-evaluate, and gain a new perspective that allows me to not only deal with stressful situations but actually enjoy these moments. Before I began learning from her, I ran through life reacting to unexpected and stressful situations in a way that left me feeling shell shocked and powerless. After taking just a few pieces of wisdom from Mary, I now face life with more curiosity and the understanding that I have the power to choose how I respond to whatever life throws at me."

“As I have been empowered in my life, I notice
the
ripple effect with my children, husband,
clients
and community.”
“I have been studying Mary Allen's book 'Power of Inner Choice' and participating in her group coaching programs for the past two years. This has resulted in a major shift in my self awareness and sense of inner peace. The powerful exercises have helped with focused attention and NOW, in the moment I can notice when something has interrupted my peace, where I am resisting reality and how I am reacting from ego. This has allowed me to stop, refocus and respond from love and spirit. What a gift Mary has given us in her work. As I have been empowered in my life, I notice the ripple effect with my children, husband, clients, and community.Mary is a master at partnering with her clients, empowering them to create their dreams and goals from a place of inner peace. She has a natural charm and charisma which energizes her groups and allows magic to be created."

However, The Real Impact of This
Retreat Comes When You Return
To Everyday Life!
If you’ve attended other retreats and workshops, you know how “jolting” it can be to re-integrate with loved ones, work and busy schedules. You’ll learn how to optimize this transition and re-integration period.
AFTER attending the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat you will…
Know, in every cell of your being, you CAN handle anything that comes your way. (It doesn't mean you'll stop feeling emotions or won't get caught in thought, but you'll "be present with" any challenge (work, relationships, decisions, etc.) in a new empowering way.)
Adeptly return to your inner peace in a fraction of the time you currently do today. (Even those who've been studying personal growth for 20+ years!)
Respond lovingly to situations that previously “ruffled your feathers.” (Trust me on this, it’s SO much more fun!)
Find yourself lovingly and compassionately embracing every aspect of your being (both the light and the dark qualities) (This is so liberating!)
Delight in your new friendly relationship with ALL feeling and thought (including the good ones and the ones most often judged.)
Be empowered with simple tips, tools and strategies to return to inner peace, when you temporarily have a “human moment” (this economy is excellent training ground, yes?)
Understand how inner peace is paramount to your ongoing and continued success.
Be more fully aligned with your dreams and goals, as you live from a place of purpose and fulfillment.
Be confident in facilitating others in returning to their inner peace and power when they get disconnected. (Even if you're not a coach, therapist, healer or consultant, you'll love these skills and be able to use them immediately!)
Past participants of the “pilot” Inner Peace Infusion Retreat report the effects continue to deepen and expand afterwards, as they experience greater inner peace and clarity in all areas of their lives. Relationship challenges dissolve, problems become opportunities to flex their inner peace muscles, and work becomes a playground for self-expression.
What Happens When You Get Back to “Real Life?”
This retreat isn’t just about giving you a utopian experience of inner peace for a few days, only for you to return to everyday life and all the stress, overwhelm and minuetia.
These 4 days are about slowing down and carefully looking at the roots of “inner turmoil” and all their various shades and disguises (namely other people and "problems"). Together we will rigorously and compassionately address them – one by one, creating greater emotional freedom.
We’ll consciously unravel the beliefs, emotions and habits that no longer serve you. By holding a magnifying glass up to old patterns, you’ll see their grip loosen, allowing new conscious choices and more inner peace to naturally emerge.
Where ever you are in your own personal journey, the integrated tools and strategies experiences you’ll learn here promise to help you create and expand a more soothing experience of inner peace than you’ve ever had. You also may find yourself inspired and empowered to coach others back to an awakened state.
True Integration Can Come Only From
A Comprehensive Approach…
Most teachers focus exclusively on one dimension of inner peace, while ignoring the others. Unfortunately, this provides an incomplete picture, leaving many people confused, frustrated and befuddled when handling life’s diverse array of challenges and circumstances.
“Mary Allen very wisely assembles the self-help puzzle so that it forms a clear picture instead of being a handful of pieces collected from various sources.” -- Kim Nishida
Throughout the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat, we’ll examine and explore inner peace through the FOUR key dimensions – physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Integrating each dimension exponentially increases one's "inner peace quotient." That’s what makes this model so powerful…
1
SPIRITUAL:Most people equate “inner peace” with the spiritual dimension. AWARENESS is the single most important key to expanding one’s inner peace quotient. We dive into this deeply at the retreat. For example you’ll…
Expand your ability to “be present” and AWARE of each moment.
Master quieting your mind.
Learn to listen more intently to the CLARITY of your intuition or inner guidance allowing you to make conscious choices, maximize creativity and make decisions with ease.
More deeply understand your unique purpose and vision in life (it’s guiding you whether you are conscious or unconscious of it).
2
EMOTIONAL:Connecting to your PEACEFUL POWER is the predominant focus of the emotional dimension. When you’re not connected to your peaceful center, life becomes difficult, it’s easy to feel like a victim, and the emotional traps of fear, frustration and depression expand. When you’re connected here, you are grounded, life flows effortlessly and you simply handle anything life offers with ease. During the retreat you’ll…
Understand how you innocently disconnect from your “peaceful power” and how you can quickly reconnect anytime you choose.
Learn to flex and strengthen the most important inner peace “emotional muscles.”
Identify the unconscious emotional patterns running you (and how to transcend these reactions in a healthy way).
Develop the ability to “love what is” or “be with” life’s challenges, uncertainties, and limitations... and much more!
3
MENTAL:Your inner peace is a reflection of both the conscious and unconscious thoughts and BELIEFS you have…stuff we’ve chosen and stuff that’s been passed down to us. They create havoc on our inner peace quotient (and any area of life that isn't working). During the retreat you will:
Discover what unconscious, limiting and disempowering beliefs interfere with your quiet contentment.
Master two simple, yet powerful processes allowing you to identify the peskiest thoughts in seconds (transforming the most challenging life circumstances.) You'll also be guided through a third potent process.
Learn how to integrate new empowering thoughts to replace those limiting beliefs no longer serving you.
(And that’s just the tip of the iceberg!)
4
PHYSICAL: There are a lots of physical demands for each of us, but most spiritual teachers ignore this aspect completely. The demands of living in a body, providing for yourself financially, maintaining order in your physical environment and taking inspired action to fulfill your life’s purpose is essential! I feel so strongly about this piece that morning activities like yoga, walking meditations, tai chi and qigong are an integral part of the inner peace retreat. During the retreat you’ll:
Learn what it means to take “inspired action” as you move throughout your life.
Understand how “willingness” and “discipline” are your greatest allies in making conscious choices, upping the ante of your self-care practices and expanding inner peace.
See how goal-setting and inner peace harmoniously work together. …and so much more!
Not only will you receive a fresh perspectives, inspiration and experiential learning -- the effect is synergistic…
As you integrate specific takeaways in each facet of inner peace the impact of each is enhanced by discovering and honing the others. This holistic approach is one of the most powerful and unique aspects of The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat.
Come Experience The Feeling,
So You Can Create It For Yourself
Again… Anytime You Want!
We’ll give you the space and guidance you need to immerse yourself in “inner peace” and allow you to experience this state of being long enough to recognize and fuel your own personal reservoir. And, you’ll leave having practiced all the tools and strategies you need to return to ‘inner peace’ again and again…regardless of how minor or major the interference.
Finding Inner Peace AND Success While Living in This Complex World
There are countless books, CD’s and programs addressing various aspects of inner peace. Like you, I have studied many of them. Yet the ultimate challenge is integrating them into your life, and creating a lasting effect…especially when different teachings conflict with another.
One path says, simply “live in the present moment" (that's the 1st Facet of Inner Peace). Another body of work emphasizes listening to your intuition (5th Facet of Inner Peace) Other teachings focus on “exploring our shadow," "challenging limiting beliefs," "living your purpose," or simply “accepting what is” (12th Facet of Inner Peace). Visualization, goal setting and defining strategies are also popular, and seemingly necessary (6th Facet of Inner Peace).
Yet, several spiritual teachers say setting goals interferes with inner peace. There is so much conflicting information out there with HOW to access Everyday Inner Peace. So, do we have goals or not? Aren’t goals useful to transform our physical bodies, build savings or de-clutter our home? Can we have goals and inner peace simultaneously?
Ugh! So How Do You Know What
To Follow and Which To Do First?
Another great question!
All Personal Growth Work Is Nudging You Along
The Path Of Inner Peace In Some Way, BUT…
Attend any seminar, and you’ll see how each area of focus satisfies an important role as we expand inner peace in our lives.
It is important to live in the present moment, honor our passions in a healthy way and learn to love ourselves. It’s also useful to set intentions, access our intuition and allow creativity to flow. However, if you don’t develop discipline, set up effective systems and take inspired action – progress becomes stifled.
It’s also essential (especially in relationships) to listen better, express ourselves authentically, and embrace reality for “what it is” and for “what it is not.” And, what about aligning more fully with your dreams?
Yet, enormous freedom comes as we explore the unconscious aspects of ourselves (shadow), challenge our beliefs and contemplate truth.
And...of course, "radical awakening" is one of the grand-daddy's!
Each of these facets is integrally related to our inner peace. Until now, no one has pulled all these components together under one comprehensive program.

“Stress does not need to be our set point…Mary illustrates that it is possible to have
inner peace
be your set point.”
"Mary Allen was absolutely born to lead an inner peace retreat. She shares a wealth of material in such a relaxed, friendly, engaging and entertaining way that learning it all feels like a breeze. Stress does not need to be our set point. Alternating information with fun experiential exercises, Mary illustrates that it is possible to have inner peace be your set point. And it's not one size fits all. Mary shares such a wide range of techniques that you can choose what resonates with you ... there's something for everyone. Being at Mary's Inner Peace Infusion Retreat for just a weekend planted the seed of hope for more inner peace and gave me the tools to accomplish that goal. I can only imagine what will be set in motion with her Inner Peace Immersion WEEK. I'm delighted and excited and so grateful for the experience!"

“I now feel I have greater clarity, more strength
and appreciation for all aspects of myself.”
"During the retreat I realized how l had let go of my enthusiasm, appreciation and amazement of myself. I now feel I have greater clarity, more strength and appreciation for all aspects of myself. I expect to immediately access 80% more joy, then quickly follow to 100%. My relationship with my husband will dramatically improve as I stay in inner peace. As a Mom, “I hold the key” to the family atmosphere.”
– Sheila Jenkins, Ventura, CA
“... by the end of the retreat I was a decidedly more complete and comfortable person...”
A mentor once told me that true breakthroughs and insights rarely, if ever, interrupt you. They are much more gradual and gentle. You just awaken to them. If that's true, then Mary Allen's "Inner Peace Infusion Retreat" was an almost constant stream of some of the most gentle and impactful breakthroughs and insights I've ever experienced. I especially like the wonderful metaphor she used to easily demonstrate to us that we are, indeed, the sum of all our parts -- our virtues and our vices, our gifts and our faults, our love and our fear -- and that without any one of them, we are not able to take our full place in the matrix of creation. The shifts Mary helped me to make are so subtle that I'm not sure I could describe any of them in detail. I do know, though, that by the end of the retreat I was a decidedly more complete and comfortable person than I was at the beginning. Mary is a truly inspired teacher and guide.

“The retreat re-enlivened my
desire to take inspired action!”
“The timing was perfect for stretching, growing and exploring non-dominant sides of myself, deepening my listening and feeling more grounded in my current life transition. The retreat re-enlivened my desire to take inspired action!”

“Even though my life has had its up and downs, the one thing I know is when I am at peace within myself...
I am virtually invincible.”
"Many people assume if you are successful in the outer world, you must be in touch and happy. Not always true! My awakening from this workshop had me connecting with myself on a deeper level. This is what life is about! The Inner Peace Infusion Retreat provided me with the understanding and tools to change my life.
As a Conscious Achiever, I have achieved things most people dream of; I built my start up to $100 million, owned lots of stuff like a place in Maui and a beach front home and a mansion, traveled around the world, became a Marathon Runner, made a series of television productions, an award winning film and more. I also have been through two divorces, I am raising two children and have had a series of life challenges. I have gone from rags to riches and back again.
When I come from inner peace, I experience purpose, financial success and deep personal relationships. Coming from this centered place, so much goes into action, solutions create themselves in real time. I live my life in celebration! You can contact me directly for an endorsement of this program! 23@rogersanford.com I will see you in Joshua Tree!.”
– Roger Sanford, Santa Cruz, CA
“My approach to life has completely been transformed since I've been a participant in Mary's programs - I'm more at peace, content, and happier than I've ever been.”
“Mary has taken me on an enlightened journey exploring the spectrum of possibilities to achieve a level of Inner Peace that I never imagined would become such an integral part of my everyday life. The power of awareness (being in the now) and living from a completely centered place has directly impacted my ability to make choices that truly honor myself and in turn others. My relationships in all aspects of my life have grown deeper and more real through my exploration of my authentic self. Mary provides the tools we need to reshape our limited belief structures and then takes them to a higher level to show us how to open the door to finding our true voice and positively impact our lives and those around us. My approach to life has completely been transformed since I've been a participant in Mary's programs - I'm more at peace, content, and happier than I've ever been.

The Perfect Haven…
The Joshua Tree Retreat Center
The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat couldn’t be hosted just anywhere. It needed to be in a peaceful and quiet venue, away from the distractions of civilization (and other noisy hotel groups). It had to be spiritually uplifting. It had to have plenty of space for quiet contemplation, walking meditations and natural inspiration. I also wanted a space to offer yoga, tai chi or qigong each morning.
The moment you walk onto the Joshua Tree Retreat Center, you’ll immediately begin breathing a little easier. That’s what I experienced, so I knew this was the perfect venue for the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat. Located in the high desert, 25 minutes outside of Palm Springs, its natural beauty and stillness is breath-taking.
The Joshua Tree Retreat Center is close enough to several international airports, yet far enough away from the big cities to truly allow for an “immersion of inner peace.”
Countless spiritual teachers, including Byron Katie, Ram Dass, and Wayne Dyer have also lead thousands in their programs at this sacred learning space.
How Long Is the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat?
The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat is 4 days…and 4 nights. This exclusive event begins on Wednesday, October 20, 2010 at 7pm. Then, the “immersion” begins, ending officially on Sunday, October 24th at 2pm. (You'll want to book your flight no earlier than 4pm. Or for a small fee you may choose to spend Sunday resting deeper into your inner peace before you gracefully transition home on Monday.) If you can, we highly recommend planning an extra day or two to help you gracefully re-integrate back to everyday life.
Tranquil Accommodations,
Delicious and Nutritious Meals, and
ALL-INCLUSIVE Package for Convenience
Gratefully, the Joshua Tree Retreat Center allows all participants to stay onsite together, limiting the outside distractions offered by most hotels and eliminating travel time to and from the property. Each tranquil room has 2-4 individual beds. Most participants will room with one other person. Or, for an additional fee you can enjoy your own room (based on availability).
Once you’re settled in, we’re handling everything so you can simply focus on relaxing into the serenity of inner peace.
Earlier this year, hundreds of people were surveyed about what they desired and expected most from a multi-day Inner Peace Immersion Retreat. #1 on the list was healthy and nutritious food. To fully meet this need and desire, I’ve hand-selected gourmet Chef Becky Trowbridge, trained at the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Academy with 14 years of professional experience as a Personal Chef and Caterer. Since 1982 (long before it came “vogue”), her cooking has included the use of preservative-free, all natural, organic products with an emphasis on using fresh products from farmer’s markets.
Yum, Yum, Yum.
Chef Becky and I believe it takes proper nourishment to keep your mind and body operating at its full potential. We also understand maintaining proper eating habits is difficult with the busy schedules most of us have today.
Keeping these things in mind, the meals at The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat will focus on foods packed with flavor and easy on the belt-line.
You’ll receive 3 healthy, nutritious and tasty meals each day. (If you have special dietary needs, just let us know and we’ll make sure you’re taken care of.)
As a special BONUS, our chef also agreed to provide an Inner Peace Recipe Bookletof all the meals, so you can enjoy your favorite dishes from the retreat again and again. These meals are relatively easy to prepare so even if you’re not a “chef” you’ll be able to replicate these yummy dishes. We’ll also enlighten you about the foods that most support and interfere with inner peace, and some nutrition basics.
I’m pleased to offer the “Accommodations & Meals Package” for the ridiculously affordable rate of $600 per person (NOT including the event tuition...though it's affordable too!)The Accommodations & Meals fee includes 4 nights of slumber and 3 meals each full retreat day (plus snacks!) It includes dinner on the evening of your arrival through lunch on the afternoon of your departure. You’re probably relieved you won’t be expected to shell out thousands of extra dollars at a pricy hotel, paying double or triple the price of the event tuition for lodging, tips, taxes and unpredictable meal expenses. Are you breathing easier already?
“Okay Mary, I’m READY
To Invite More Inner Peace In My Life!”
When I first conceived the idea for this retreat, I was committed to it being a very exclusive, first-class and intimate event, where I could ensure people get real transformation. I planned to invite my millionaire clients and set the price at the $10,000 mark per person. But, the more my vision evolved, the more I realized this pricing structure would exclude a lot of people - especially those who might need it most.
So after considerable thought...and a bit of help crunching the numbers with my event planner, I decided to make the decision to attend a 'no-brainer'... and still deliver a "one-of-a-kind-first-class-life-altering-forever" experience.
All Inclusive Tuition for the 4-Day
Inner Peace Immersion Retreat
is only $2997
While that’s a great value, things are
about to get even better, if you act quickly…
6- Pay Option available!
Seats are limited so be sure to register now!
All-inclusive registration gives you extra peace of mind.
Your “all-inclusive” package is $2997. That's $2397 (Tuition) + $600 (Accommodations & Meals) = $2997.
That means you don’t have to worry about ANY extra or hidden costs, hefty hotel rates or expensive restaurant bills once you arrive. No tips. No taxes. No hassle. It’s all taken care of, once you reserve your space and arrive.
This is a fraction of the cost of a decent vacation, only you’ll feel the effects long after you return home. (Some comparable retreats charge triple or more just for the tuition!)
When you discover for yourself, what a value-packed, life-altering and first class event this is, you'll understand why it will be significantly more in the future.
4-Pay
Plan To Make It
Even More Affordable…
To reserve in your space for this exclusive event, and make it even easier on the wallet, choose the easy 4-Pay
Option to spread the payments out. That’s only $499.50 a month. This option is available for a limited time.
“Bring a Friend” All-Inclusive
Savings for ONLY $997
In addition to the easy 4-Pay
option, if you want to bring your spouse, colleague or friend, you can get a special guest ticket for only $997 (that's just $397 for tuition plus $600 for their Accommodations and Meals)... as long as you register together.
The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat is a perfect experience to share with a significant other. Several couples participated in the “pilot” retreat together, and were pleased at how their intimacy and communication grew as a result of their shared experience in inner peace.
And bringing a friend is an excellent way to make it even more affordable while sharing your retreat experience, as you both enjoy deeper levels of inner peace.
For 4 days, you’ll be removed from all distractions and have a rare and unique opportunity to fully immerse yourself in inner peace and master tools to help other do the same.
What Is It Costing You To NOT Be At Peace?
While the goal isn't 24/7 inner peace, the truth is most people suffer WAY more than necessary...and it's costing us all dearly. We’ve talked about the benefits you’ll receive by participating in the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat. As you consider those, it’s also important to consider the COSTS of not having great inner peace in your life (as uncomfortable as it is). So, take a moment and step into this question, "When you don’t have access to everyday inner peace, what is it costing..
your most important relationships?
your health?
your productivity?
yourincome?
your ability to focus?
your happiness?
We all pay a price for not being at peace. Some things are obvious. Others are subtle. Often we simply don’t realize the high cost of not having everyday inner peace. As "conscious achievers," it's important for us to consider this since our inner peace affects others, and ultimately, the world.
What Is It Worth To You To Have Inner Peace
As Your Predominant Way Of Being?
On the other hand, when you learn the tools you’ll be getting at the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat, you’ll be able to handle anything life throws your way. Just think about it…
How much more productive and effective would you be at work if your predominant way of being was inner peace?
How much more understanding would you be in relationships?
How much more attractive would be to potential partners?
How much better choices would you make relating to your health?
How much happier would you be?
How much of a better parent would you be?
How much more “on purpose” would you be?
How much more income and abundance is ready to be received by you?
How much more would life “flow” if inner peace were your predominant way of being?
And, if you're a coach, consultant, healer or otherwise inspired to support others, what are the potential ripple affects in the world when more people are accessing greater inner peace?
No matter where we are in our lives we all have room for more inner peace. Imagine the impact if you could even DOUBLE the inner peace you already have now. This retreat really can be a new beginning for you, or a deepening of what you already know to be true in your soul.
What if you had TWO MORE
Compelling "Reasons" To Attend...
You may know in every cell of your being, you want to attend The Inner Peace Immersion Retreat. And, there are two more compelling "reasons" to be a part of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Meet my two guest speakers...
Arjuna Ardagh is an Awakening Coach, and trains others to be facilitators of Awakening. He is the author of the #1 national bestseller “The Translucent Revolution,” as well as “Leap Before You Look”, “Let Yourself Go”, and several other books and audio and video products. As well as the Awakening Coaching Training, Arjuna teaches seminars and longer retreats all over the world which help people awaken to their deepest potential, and what life can be, beyond the limits of the conceptual mind. Arjuna has taught at Harvard Law School, is on faculty at the Omega Institute, and has spoken at international conferences all over the world. He has trained and guided CEOs from some of the world’s largest companies in his approach.

Radical Awakening, Radical Releasing
and Awakening Coaching
Arjuna will guide you into an experience of "Radical Awakening," out of the mind and into awakened presence, in just a few minutes.
Arjuna will also guide the group (and a few lucky people) in Radical Releasing. This profound process allows you to experience and release energetic charges which are the basis of emotional reactivity, and which inhibit our ability to respond to opportunity.
Arjuna is one of my mentors and coaches. I am deeply honored to have his presence with us throughout the Inner Peace Immersion Retreat. This is a rare and unusual opportunity to spend time with this master of awakening in such a small group.
Inner Peace and Sacred Sensuality
Lisa Schrader is a professionally trained Certified Life Coach and has been in private practice for nine years. She supports clients with spiritual and sexual healing and awakening. She teaches courses and leads workshops on Tantra & Sacred Loving and has appeared on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and "The Fabulous Life" on VH1. She is also the author of the "Kama Sutra 52: A Year's Worth of the Best Positions for Passion & Pleasure."
Relationships are integral to inner peace. Intimacy, sexuality and pleasure are often touchy subjects. Lisa is adept at guiding conversations and exercises to help, even the most apprehensive, feel at ease with sacred sensuality. Get ready for this opportunity to open your heart more deeply in self love, erotic love, loving others, and ultimately, Divine Love.

“I am 49 and have never read or bought a self help book before, didn’t think I needed them; figured those are for people with problems---however when I encountered a situation where I desperately needed to understand my longtime boyfriend’s unexplainable struggle with inner peace with marriage, I read Mary’s book, ‘The Power of Inner Choice.’ The truth is, it should be called the Power of Inner Peace. It changed my life as it so clearly explained the sources of stress, how we create it, how to recognize it and how to deal with it, and therefore achieve inner peace. It was gold. It was power. Finally something tangible I could discuss with him that we both could understand. Nothing else came close. Needless to say we overcame the self created stresses, (and more importantly became more aware of the recognition when it starts to happen) and are now very happily married and have total inner peace with marriage. Thanks Mary!” 
“I struggled with the resentment, anger and frustration I felt from the results of divorce after 6 years of marriage. I learned to understand and accept all those negative emotions and let go of the pain. I was able to move on to an amazing relationship with exciting new goals. I learned to make the most of every day and really understand what I wanted in my life. When my partner of 3-1/2 years died in front of me unexpectedly, I was devastated. With the foundation I had built from the wealth of knowledge from Mary’s book, programs and coaching, I was able to work through my grief and take care of my responsibilities. The NOW practices were really helpful to create focus when I felt overwhelmed with emotions and unable to function. I've learned so much from Mary in the last 5 years, that I've recently started doing the exercises again as I explore new goals and relationships. While I still miss Carl, I’m at a place of peace.”
