Grace K 10/11/2011	This space holds your intentions in the most sacred and unexpected ways. I cannot truly express or measure in words the deep experiences felt at Spirit Falls and the support, love & guidance from Bodhi Heart the moment we commited to a date. That’s truly when the work began to unfold. My sense is that anyone drawn or attracted to this sacred space will find more than they could ask for and receive exactly what they need. It was a divine serendipity that led me here. My dear wise yogi friend stayed for a whole month beforehand and was so inspired that he paid it forward, giving me the opportunity to experience a solo retreat directly on my own. Bodhi Heart supported my process and ‘fearless’ intention with integrity the entire time. He mirrored for me my courageous spirit and helped me to release some fears/illusions and have a deeper experience of my true self and following the heart. It’s been almost a month now since the retreat and yet still feel that I’m integrating all that was happening & unfolding at this unassuming little powerhouse called Spirit Falls. There are lots of beautiful opportunities while going inward to see them reflected in the outer world. Everything you need is there and any concerns you have Bodhi will clear them for you. Every day while there, I had an encounter with a deer. Nature provides a perfect setting for you to encounter parts of yourself. The cabin was beautifully designed to accommodate this. I left the shades and windows open all night, it felt so safe and magical sleeping in a bed under tall pine trees with the sounds of nature. Within a week the weather went from high 90’s to a pleasant low 80’s and thunderstorms. I’m looking forward to visiting again and experience the quiet winter. The location is amazing and healing. I noticed how good my body felt, so alive and nourished during this stay. Pine is convenient to well-known spiritual-power spots too. You’re about an hour and a half drive or so from Sedona. It is a breath-taking ride getting there. All in all, what seemed most evident to me is not just the space, but the heart energy that permeated this space. Bodhi Heart, for the lack of a better word anchors the ‘spirit’ of this place. Helping your illusions/your stories to ‘fall’ away and see the love and light that you truly are. Thank you for the darshan…in tears of gratitude, I bow to the true self. Namaste Bodhi
Sandra 9/17/2011	I spent 2 weeks at Spirit Falls, and if I could have, I would have stayed much, much longer. Bodhi is a wonderful host, and a very wise man, who has really helped me along my journey. I really appreciate the talks we had together. The retreat is excellent value for money. I stayed in the Heart Cabin and was very happy there. The garden is great, lots of wildlife and I loved sitting in the hot tub looking up at the pine trees. There are some great walks near Spirit Falls, and so much to do in the surrounding area. But just spending quiet time at Spirit Falls is wonderful and nurturing and I wish I'd had longer for that. I loved Arizona. The countryside is amazing and the people are so friendly. Pine has a lovely atmosphere. I hope to visit again and I'm sure that I will.
mechelle 4/10/2011	Spirit Falls reflects the heart that went into making it the beautiful place it is. I came looking for what I thought was my self identity and found that it was never lost--though at times it felt that it was irretrievably lost. Your help was perfect. I found what I came for--a way to go on and move forward as myself. I look forward to returning to Spirit Falls, hopefully under better circumstances.
Lora W 3/22/2011	My husband and I stayed at Spirit Falls for a week; the first three nights I stayed in the Heart cabin by myself and then later joined my husband in the Hopi cabin. It was a wonderful experience to be emerged in peaceful silence in the middle of a beautiful, serene place. Both cabins were comfortable (though my favorite remains the Heart cabin) and well equipped with everything we needed. The time I spent meditating in the cabin, wandering around the property and in the meditation gazebo was priceless and unforgettable. Bodhi made us both feel at home and we enjoyed his company immensely. He was quick to offer us anything we might need and supplied us with maps for hiking/tourist destinations around the area. Bodhi was a great host and guide, and we both look forward to visiting him and Spirit Falls again very soon. A short note on the area of Pine: Everything you need, you'll find and wonderful people are everywhere. Bodhi has great taste in food; take his suggestions. We anxiously await our next visit to Pine and the Spirit Falls retreat!
Jan Tijmes (John Positive) 3/17/2011	I visited Spirit Falls and felt a peaceful warmth to the place. The owner stays out of everyone's affairs and serves. If you need food, he gets it for you. If you need clean sheets, they are provided. And the quiet peace of the high Arizona mountains with deep heart energy was the selling point. The property is small, but it has a big Heart. And seeing as I was going to be meditating for a long-course, I decided to stay here. Plus, Spirit Falls has rates that you cannot beat. It's cheaper than a hotel, and they offer specials to those staying longterm. So I decided to stay for 45 days. 22days of immersed meditation and the rest walking, writing, and offering spiritual sessions to people from my cabin. It worked out SO well! I grew more in that 45 days than in a long time. I released all my 'Houston city energy" and reconnected with the peace of nature and myself. Thanks Spirit Falls! I'll be back often! Jan
Sheila C 1/15/2011	My time at Spirit Falls was a beautiful experience, and one that I will treasure forever--a week to remember! Bodhi, I can't tell you thank you enough. As the energy from that week seeps into my soul, I'm being grounded in the Love of the Divine in a very real way. I feel like a very rich woman to have had this delicious experience. It will take a while for me to process the last two weeks, but I know my heart is full and I've received a memorable experience as pure gift.
Emily M 1/3/2011	I stayed at Spirit Falls for 8 days in early November. I am a 35 year old woman, currently on a career break from a job in the UK. Spirit Falls turned out to be just what I needed to settle deeper into myself, collect my thoughts, and open up my sense of the divine. I found myself settling easily in to stillness, taking time to meditate, to walk in the nearby National Forest, to do meditative dance and do yoga in the gazebo, and to talk to Bodhi about spirituality. I was in the Hopi cabin, which is slightly larger than the other cabin. It was very simple and clean, and had everything I needed. I particularly enjoyed cooking for myself on the hob, sitting at the table and gazing out of my window, and taking advantage of the WiFi to come out of my thoughtfulness and skype my family back in the UK. I was lucky to watch deer, squirrels, and wild boar pass in front of my window. I spent a couple of evenings in the hot tub, gazing at the stars through the pine trees. I did a day trip to Sedona in the middle of my week, which was stunning. But I passed up the chance to drive all the way to the Grand Canyon on my last day, in favour of eking out an extra day at Spirit Falls. Spirit Falls was busy working its magic on me and I didn't want to lose a moment! Bodhi was an excellent host. He made sure I had everything I needed, and checked in once a day to see if anything more was required. He was very respectful of my desire for silence and aloneness. And he was also available for spiritual conversation when I wished it. Since returning a month ago, I have found myself mentioning him and his way of seeing the world often, which confirms that I learnt an enormous amount from him. I was delighted to be introduced to some of the writings and teachings of those who have influenced him most.
