In homeopathy the individual is treated, not the disease, using minute, non-toxic doses of plant, mineral, animal or other substances. These substances stimulate the body's own natural healing energies and are very easy to use. Explore the principles of homeopathic medicine and come away knowing how to treat acute conditions with substances that have been proven to be safe, natural and effective.

We will drive Crater Rim Drive through the ohia forest to the Thurston Lava Tube, a 450-foot lava-tube tunnel set amid a fern forest. We will then hike down into Kilauea Iki Crater for a meditation. This particular vent was active in 1959 spewing lava and now is like being on the moon with steam venting all throughout the crater floor. If there are current active lava flows in the park, we will attempt to drive or walk to them. In other years, Well Within groups have had incredible experiences hiking to lava flows & viewing & filming them. Of course this all depends on Pele.

Who Are These Tours
Designed For?:
We want your tour to be a trip of a lifetime, a transformative adventure.:
These tours are designed those who want to travel sober - for women as well as men; young or not so young; people interested in the mystery and sacredness of life, with a desire to know and understand more of where we've come from to assist us in where we are going and making a difference on the planet. If you have a curiosity about mythology, sacred sites, other cultures, and a sense of adventure and want to travel with like-minded people in small intimate groups with a nice balance of workshop time, site time as well as free, independent time, these tours are designed for you. They are not your ordinary, large group tours, being herded into buses with little time to experience the energy of the site. We allow special extra time at sacred sites and there is always the option of being with the group or being on your own. Also, meals are usually not included (except breakfasts on some trips) to afford you the opportunity to explore on your own at meal time or eat with the group.
