Vision Quest Retreat with Mitote – Profound Spiritual Experience in Nature
Vision Quest Mitote Retreat– A Sacred Rite of Passage
This Vision Quest Weekend has been extended to four days this year for a fuller experience—small group, profound experiences.
We begin the journey with emails and a call with me before the Quest—transformative, deep levels of healing that awaken the wisdom within you.
“A retreat with Janet is coming home. Janet’s teachings emerge from a place of unconditional love. You come away with you and your life forever changed. Choosing to work with Janet is giving yourself the most beautiful gift in the world.” Beth Lieberman Mund, Medium, Channel, Healer.
A time for you. Pause and get off the track of your life to go inside and discover your authentic voice, needs, choices, and inner wisdom as a gift you give yourself. You find that this experience offers deep healing on all levels, and you feel free to be yourself.
Are you moving through a significant change this year? Come for a powerful weekend of ceremony, Journeys, transformation, and rebirth with Shaman Janet StraightArrow. Awaken clarity, life purpose, and joy as we break through illusions, fears, and ego. This is a gentle yet powerful life-changing weekend.
Adding the Toltec Mitote to the Quest allows for a deep clearing and transformative experience. By the time you come to your silent time on the weekend of questing, you are ready to have a profound experience. By the end, we are gently rebirthed into ourselves and take the space to begin processing and integrating by the time we leave for home.
The main reason you go on a Vision Quest is to stop the world so you can find yourself. Without interference, responsibilities, and the roles and rules of who you think you are, space opens up to receive. Vision comes in the subtle experiences as you release attachments and see and feel the truth. The deep inner self, the soul, has an opportunity to speak and be heard.
We enjoy the gift of letting go of daily routines and comforts to experience living in a private retreat space in a natural setting, where there is little to no interference from the world, which is always quite enlightening.
We become present for the big and the little things in our lives. Nature nurtures us and reveals beauty and wonder in every moment. In our sacred time, we remember who we are and listen and learn more clearly.
Significant changes are often made before or after the Quest, as you are about to go through a new phase or rite of passage, or you are just ready to go deeper on your journey and learn more.
A Mitote Ceremony is the purification of us on all levels, breaking up stuck patterns and allowing visions to come to us in the lucid state. The Gayatri Mantra is chanted throughout the ceremony by the smaller group, which rotates around the central fire. Either you are chanting or dreaming on the outside of the circle in this experience, allowing your energy to rise and for profound cleansing, visions, and inner movement.
I chose this location, Art Farm in Accord, NY, because it provides a safe, comfortable experience for all.
On your Quest Day. In your sacred spot in nature, you realize just how long an hour or twenty-four hours are in a day. This new perspective helps us decide how to make better use of our time at home. We bring back wisdom, a new perspective, and increased energy.
PREPARATION.
By participating in Shamanic practices and tools, we prepare for your quest time in the group and share this experience. Each person will have a safe place, close enough and far enough away from others, to have their own private experience. We will work together for one day in the community to prepare for our solitude and silence. After we return to the main camp, we gather to share our experiences and prepare to re-enter the world.
Janet StraightArrow has led many of these ceremonies over the years. The Mitote is a favorite among her students. You can camp in tents, under the stars, or in a comfortable main cabin or smaller cabins.
From Janet: When I attended my first Vision Quest in 1997, I knew this was an essential part of my calling to offer to others. For twenty-six years, I have been holding sacred space for participants in a safe container. We create wonder-filled experiences as I guide you on your inner journey. As a Shaman, I begin building the container as soon as it is scheduled. Offering this retreat takes a tremendous amount of my energy and time from the time I offer it to the public to many weeks after we come home. Dedicated to helping people become who they truly are is always an honor. I find it rewarding to witness participants leave for home feeling empowered, clear, and excited about their next phase of life. The Mitote Ceremony is part of the lineage of Don Miguel Ruiz. I studied with one of his apprentice teachers for 2 years and have been leading this powerful, transformative ceremony at various retreats at least once a year since 2002.
We begin the journey with emails to support your preparation and inner process, starting as soon as you sign up.
This four-day retreat, from Thursday to Sunday, allows a deep process and experience. Significant healing and becoming continue long after the Quest.
This is a life-changing experience worthy of space and time before and after the event to prepare and process afterwards. Keep healing and awakening to who you are, breaking patterns, healing karma, stepping into your power, and visioning your next steps and future.
Janet has been a practicing Shaman for 34 years. She holds a powerful, loving spiritual energy as a container for the group, allowing each individual a space to connect with the divine and accomplish their best achievements from this retreat.

Janet has been holding these retreats for 26 years in various locations, from 3 to 8 days. THIS YEAR SHE DECIDED ON FOUR DAYS AS IT GIVES ENOUGH TIME TO EXPERIENCE AND PROCESS BOTH THE MITOTE, WHICH IS A POWERFUL CLEANSING RITUAL, AND A FULL DAY ON THE LAND FROM SUNRISE TO SUNSET.
A powerful, transformative, and transcendent experience in which healing and awakening continue for at least a year.
