EARLY BIRD SIGNUP ENDS
April 10th, 2025
We’re inviting 10 - 15 devoted Leaders, Practitioners, and Changemakers into a transformation ecosystem of Elder guidance, rites of passage, and deep community.
This is not your typical in-and-out retreat.
This is a three-month program that will attune you to Indigenous Intelligence and expand your capacity for sustained presence and vitality.
If you’re ready to commit to this level of mastery, read on.
Your Invitation
This program is for Practitioners, Leaders, and Changemakers ready to expand their capacity for Presence, Discernment, and Vitality through the wisdom of the Elders, Indigenous ways, and collective intelligence of the natural world.
You are invited to embark on a sacred journey into the heart of the Yucatán Peninsula—where ancient Mayan and Toltec wisdom, natural beauty, and transformative practices converge.
Included in the ATTUNE/01 Program & Excursion
6 hours of direct facilitated support sessions
7 days of immersive excursion experience
Ongoing community support via WhatsApp
(3 months total program duration)
While herbal medicines, elixirs, and other healing and expansion modalities are woven into this excursion, this is not a plant medicine or psychedelic focussed event.
Remember who you are.
What if you could respond intentionally rather than react emotionally in each moment, no matter the circumstances?
How would your life transform if you were easily able to release anything that does not serve you, embrace the unknown, and see everything in your life as being for you rather than against you?
Imagine how this program and experience would elevate your life force energy and service to the world.
For centuries, Indigenous communities have relied upon an ecosystem of wise council, rites of passage, and community support to expand their capacity for presence & vitality.

Wisdom
ATTUNE/01 is a collaboration between Passage and our trusted guides and practitioners from Protocol Q in Mexico.
We work with a team of Indigenous Elders, Wisdom Keepers, and Practitioners who have devoted their lives to facilitating profound, sustainable transformation through Indigenous wisdom and ways.

At 64 years old, Grandfather Cristino has dedicated his life to preserving and promoting the traditions of the native peoples of Mexico and America. His persistence and outstanding performance make him a leader and mediator between cultures and eras.
Since he was 16 years old he was part of a traditional Kalpulli (spiritual school) by Tlakelele, where they thought Tolteca/Mexica culture and the ways of the Indigenous.
In 1974 Jerry Gambill, better known as Rarihowats, two-spirit man and leader, adopted by the Mohawk Nation of Akwesasne; formed the group, today known + as "The Four Arrows" , promoting unity among young Mohawks to give way to the unified expedition between Guatemala, Mexico, the United States and Canada.
In 1975, during his expeditions, Rarihowats had an important cultural encounter in Mexico where he met groups of Indigenous Mexican tradition. This is where the collaboration between Rarihowats and grandfather Cristino Perez gave rise to the re-introduction in Mexico of ceremonies prohibited for more than 500 years, such as: the Temazcal ceremony, sacred pipe ceremony, the vision quest, and the sacred ceremony of the Dance of the Sun.

The Teaching
The perennial threads of all the wisdom traditions culminate in our Third Way Mind philosophy. These teachings are interwoven into all of our programs.

-
It represents a commitment to nonviolence and patient acceptance of what arises while strategically accounting for all possibilities. This is not a passive stance, but a transcendent way of engaging challenges and maintaining a presence where divinely inspired action naturally emerges.
Within the interplay of contrasting forces, we discover otherwise unavailable opportunities for higher intelligence and harmonious paradigms aligned with love. Third Way Mind cultivates equanimity amidst difficulties and a grateful orientation to life's unfolding.
Third Way Mind calls us to pause time, breathe, transcend fear-based reactivity, and attune to a higher frequency of gratitude and equanimity.
From this elevated vantage, we can hold the tensions of paradoxical opposites without struggle, allowing divine wisdom to guide the way.
Our Transformation Ecosystem unites ancient wisdom with the complexities of the modern world, providing you with the support you need to elevate your way of being and optimize your ability to be of service to others.
