OCAMORA is a 265-acre retreat center nestled unobtrusively in a high valley on the eastern slope of the Sangre de Cristo range in northern New Mexico. It occupies a mile-long valley composed of irrigated agricultural and lightly forested land, beautiful pastures, creek, year-round spring, organic apple orchard and garden, abundant wildlife, and mountain wilderness. For over 40 years, Ocamora has offered its extraordinary landscape as a retreat, meditation, and educational center during the summer season only. The facilities, built around a 100 year old ranch complex, offers guests an intimate and home-like experience in an intimate setting of rustic charm. Ocamora is located three hours from the Albuquerque airport, two hours northeast of Santa Fe and under two hours east of Taos. Accommodations at Ocamora include both single and shared rooms in the adobe ‘Cloisters’ complex, as well as rooms, two cabins and three yurts in the orchard. Camping is an option. A shared bathroom is available for guests in the Cloisters, while a solar bathhouse and outhouses serve those staying in the orchard. In addition to original ranch house, Ocamora includes a dining/art pavilion, a meditation sanctuary, and library. There is an outdoor redwood hot tub for soaks under the magnificent night sky.

Our intention in offering this extended residential retreat is to provide a safe and soulful space in a unique land based setting . The week is designed for deep inner exploration, rest, reflection, and restoration. Using highly experiential modalities such as GROF® Breathwork, art making, journal writing, movement, bodywork, guided time in nature, and ritual, we will ‘seed’ the imagination. In addition to the healing and renewal inherent in the work, this cultivation of the unique and precious ‘creative spirit’ in each of us can act as a powerful antidote to the despair and disenchantment that so easily affects our lives in these complex and challenging times. By taking the time to quiet the mind and tune into our inner life we access the growing energies that seek to express themselves in new and different ways. Pilgrimage is time-honored. Transformational work takes time.
