She is the author of Awakening Your Inner Shaman: A Woman's Journey of Self-Discovery through the Medicine Wheel and co-author of the Mystical Shaman Oracle deck. Born and raised in Chile, Marcela graduated from a prestigious journalism program. In her mid-twenties, she pursued studies in yoga and wellness and in 2005 she graduated from The Four Wind Society’s Light Body School.

Marcela hosts retreats at Los Lobos Sanctuary, the center she and her husband Alberto Villoldo built in the mountains of Chile. She travels internationally to teach shamanic wisdom and leads sacred journeys for people to awaken their own power and grace.

Upcoming Programs by Marcela Lobos

“The breathtaking landscapes and fresh mountain air take all stress away the minute you arrive. The natural surroundings completely captivate you.”

Organic Spa Living

“I have been all over the world and this spa is by far my most favorite. The service, the facilities and the kindness is beyond my past experience. I recommend going to Menla and making the Spa your first stop every day.”

Janice L. Rous

“As a residential employee, Menla is a beautiful place to live. Work doesn’t feel like work when surrounded by the natural beauty of upstate New York. The co-workers are all caring and dedicated, and form a community, rather than a workplace. I am grateful to make my home in such an environment of compassion and peace, and to make a living here as well.”
