Ibiza, the crossroads of civilizations, where east meets west:  although geographically part of western Europe, it was originally settled by Phoenicians and Carthaginians; where north meets south:  it’s halfway between Barcelona and the coast of Algeria.  In the Axial Age of enlightenment, during the times when personalities like the Buddha, Lao Tsu and Socrates were opening people’s minds to a new spiritual understanding, Ibiza was also on its way to becoming an important center of Mediterranean trade, with its own currency and pantheon of gods, headed up by the feminine Goddess Tanit.  And now Ibiza is arguably the most internationalized enclave there is, with over 80 nationalities residing on this magical island.  What better place to experience the transformative process of 2012 than on this crucible of culture? 

Greenheart’s Transit to Transformation is for individuals interested in gaining a deeper understanding of personal and social transformation, movement, continued education, health and wellness and connecting with nature.
