HEALING WATERS RETREAT
FALLBROOK, CALIFORNIA
SEPTEMBER 9TH - 13TH
2024
ZenAgain Wellness Retreats is proud to announce our Healing Waters Retreat in Fallbrook, California.
Escape to our enchanting fall retreat and indulge in a week of fun and relaxation.
Nestled on a picturesque luxury 4-acre estate surrounded by nature, you'll experience pure bliss.
Enjoy our 96 degree heated pool with soothing Watsu sessions, unwind with evening floating sound baths, and soak up the magic of Murrieta Hot Springs on our final day.
Our lively facilitators will lead you through invigorating morning yoga, guided meditations and breathwork sessions.
We will also be offering a creative plant based cooking class, and a mandala painting workshop where you can craft your very own piece of magical art to bring home.
You have daily options for hiking the wonderful nature trails surrounding the estate, or unwind instead with a 90-minute deep tissue massage with our lovely on site therapist.
Join us in joyful group circles, embrace new friendships, and fill your spirit with positive energy and joy! 🌈
Take a break from everyday reality and immerse yourself in a soothing aquatic experience. Let the healing waters nurture and support you as you connect with your breath and heartbeat, guided gently through warm water. This floating Savasana allows your body to relax and sink into bliss. Keith Anderson, our expert in aquatic bodywork, will provide each guest with a personalized 60-minute session in our 96-degree heated pool. Through conscious movement, energy work, and massage, you'll experience unique stretches and movements and total relaxation. This is a unique one-of-a-kind experience and we are so grateful to be able to offer these special sessions.

Finding the Center
by Drew Brophy
To kick off our retreat, we have a very special guest lecture and dinner
THE GIFT OF LIFE
The Will to Live, A Near Death Experience with Drew Brophy
​
In this talk, Drew will share his transformative Near-Death Experience after 28 days in a coma and 70 days on a ventilator due to Covid. No one expected Drew to live, and his wife Maria said goodbye to him through a window. He will describe how his will to live helped him to survive the impossible. He will share the wisdom given to him by the NDE; that YOU are much more powerful than you know, and that it is an absolute gift to be here.
​
Along with sharing some beautiful pieces of his current art, Drew will impart some very potent messages that will undoubtedly touch each and every one of us. This will be a powerful opening to the retreat!
We will spend our last day together as a group at the Murrieta Hot Springs soaking in the deeply rich geothermal mineral waters, allowing our bodies to relax and restore even further.
​
For more than 100 years Southern California’s culture has been woven through the healing waters of Murrieta Hot Springs, and now newly renovated with 50 private pools and special features it promises to be a beautiful ending to our retreat.

Keith Anderson
Aquatic Body Work Expert
I love what I do! My passion to assist and nurture comes from an authentic place where my heart meets my gifts. I believe it is simply my role to remind your Self that It knows how to heal You. I am grateful to be of service.
I have studied sound healing with the dolphins (the original sound healers), Joan Ocean and Patricia Cramer on the Big Island of Hawai’i; BioTuning with Jeffrey Thompson (neuroacoustic.com); didjeridoo, toning, and whale song recording with Amber Leiv Monaghan and Sam David; and Holographic Sound Healing with the Hathors and Paul Hubbert. I have certificates in BioTuning and Holographic Sound Healing.
I received my Masterbodyworker certification at the World School of Massage and Holistic Healing Arts in 1997. This includes certificates in Holistic Massage Therapy, Advanced Massage Therapy and Holistic Health Counseling. I am licensed with the California Massage Therapy Council as a Certified Massage Therapist. Certificate #33840. I am a Licensed Professional Watsu® Practitioner. I received my Masters in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica, and am a Transformational Recovery Coach certified by Being True to You.
I have been doing aquatic bodywork intuitively since 1997. In 2011, I was offered an opportunity to work at Rancho la Puerta doing Watsu® where I served for 6 years. This has been the perfect synthesis for me: healing arts in the water. I studied Watsu®, Aquatherics, Water Dance, and Aquatic Integration with Peggy Shoedinger, Theri Thomas, Richard Bock, Shantam Lanz, Kim Hartz, and Cameron West. My lifetime of riding waves and doing bodywork have all led me to this point where aquatic bodywork has floated to the forefront of my passions and practice.
My voice, crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, didjeridoos, high-tech sound table, far infrared & negative ion amethyst crystal Biomat, warm water bodywork, and conscious loving intention all work synergistically to remind your bodymindspirit that it knows how to heal You!
Love informs everything I do. It is the energy that can heal the world. May all beings know Love!
