Aaron Dias

Aaron Dias creates a sacred environment for the spiritual seeker to meet him or herself fully. Inspired by her deep studies in Eastern meditation traditions, American Shamanism and Western philosophy, each class she teaches is an experience of authentic ritual, which cleanses and restores on multiple levels--physical, mental, emotional and energetic. She is known for her uncanny ability to guide students into deep meditative states, for her intelligent, challenging and creative flow sequences, and for her skill at disentangling ancient esoteric concepts and weaving them back into practical, daily life. Expect to leave a session with Aaron feeling more whole, more free, more wise, more in love with yourself and more in love with the world.

“The property is amazing. The creek running through it is one of the most amazing places to sit and listen that I have ever been to. I work in the forest industry and am constantly exposed to the wonders of the natural world, and I feel like this is one of the most profound natural spaces I have been to in my life.”

“The experience I’ve had as a volunteer here at Menla has been a unique one. I had recently experienced the loss of a number of friends, and of my father, before coming up for a retreat, and then coming back as a volunteer. Not only was the work I did up in these gorgeous mountains an amazingly cathartic experience, but the support I received from the community that exists here was unlike anything I had previously experienced.”

“Going to Menla is like dropping out of time. The physical beauty and stillness of the place is unique. The accommodations are just right – comfortable but not ostentatious. The food is amazing and clearly made with attention and love. Thank you!”
