Esalen, my beautiful Esalen. Thank you for these beautiful pictures.

My desk is wet with tears, the room wet with my sound as I watch our Esalun, our home and those who did and continue to do the birthing of a new way of living for our society. The music and the images call us back, if only for this brief moment. Thank you .

Thank you for the spiritual pictures of Esalen grounds. I was fortunate to be there June of 08, I had the wonderful massage ever. As a CMT, I cherish my visit there, I will never forget walking the grounds before and after my session, the baths, just inhaling the energy that circled me. I will return very soon.

Thanks for the wonderful pictures and the music from Esalen. When I was studying I got to know this place and the people mentioned in the film. Today, about thirty years later, the Esalen teachers are still in my mind - they stand for the things that are really worth living.

I LOVE ESALEN SO MUCH! thanks for the memories

Thank you!

That was a lovely reminder of my days there in the work study program in 1979.

I would encourage it to anyone, although at the time I was young and didn't even really understand what I was learning...

Now I look back in appreciation and wonder at the experience!

Thank you Alyce for this. It's been a long time since I was last home....although, Esalen is always inside.

From the power place just before where the brook reaches the beach to the incredible baths to the harmonious meeting rooms to the wonderful veranda with a fire pit at the end to the tiny bar open for just two hours a day to the marvelous Big House where I have had such wonderful experiences over the years, Esalen is without equal. I love it along with the many beautiful people that I have met there. Praise the Lord for creating such a stunning spot. In a word it is magnificent

I never travelled the world but I visited her inhabitants at Esalen. The Nature, the Soul of the place is beautiful beyond words and must be experienced. God bless her always.

Sundays are crazy during changeover!

The core of Esalen are not the prestiguous few who come to teach but the community who works everyday to support this magnificent offering to all people from all walks of life.

Great video of one of my favorite places on earth! We are traveling the world on an open ended global tour as a family and Esalen remains one of the most beautiful, sacred and profound places on earth! Thanks for this video, warms my heart here in Spain!

well traveled as i am, i have yet to find another place that holds as much 'all around' sacred energy of land, spirit, and people as esalen does. it is truly a healing, transformational place.
