YEAR-LONG IMMERSION OPPORTUNITY
We are offering a long-term exchange of healing and service in an extraordinary environment.
We are offering these  incredible opportunities to anyone who realizes that 'dabbling' in healing pays no dividends and you are prepared to invest a year of your time in an intensive field of radical mind-training to create an incredible new life.  
​
If you are accepted to the program, you will be invited to live and serve at El Cielo for a one-month period of mutual evaluation. Following that month, you will be invited to complete a year-long commitment. If you can only join for a portion of a year, please let us know and we will see if it can work. 

Those who have joined the Choose Again team over the years learn life-long skills that they then take back into the world - whether to their professions as a counsellor or coach, or to their personal lives, learning to have happy and fulfilled relationships. Some, of course, choose to stay longer at El Cielo, finding that supporting others in a healing community is their calling. Choose Again has benefited and grown from the incredibly diverse people and skill sets that have contributed to making the centre the thriving gem of healing and love that it is today. We look forward to working with you!

  • have just come through a challenging divorce and you feel it is time for a radical reset. 
  • the kids have left home and you are not sure what the rest of your life might look like.

  • just retired and at a loss, looking for a new direction.
  • are beginning to recognize that repeating behaviors, or patterns, are sabotaging your growth and limiting your Joy.
