Authentic Leadership Retreat
Clarity and wisdom for the attainment of anything you want in life.
¿What is the “Matrix”?
The matrix is the accumulated effect of hundreds of layers of small trances created by the traumatic experiences of life and the ancestral conditionings. This result on a normalised sense of self who navigates along the social experience of the same trance at a collective level. This is in itself the emergent consequence of the infinity of personal trances transmitted like emotional viruses from person to person. The effect of all this layers results in an individual dissociated from nature, from other individuals and even from oneself, developing then a larger mind. It is the collective illusion of civilisation as we know it.
¿What is the real world?
The real world is nature as it is, experienced from no-mind, where there aren’t any thoughts and where intuitive or “telepathic” communication is clear and direct, as animal interaction; it’s like plants know one another, it’s all that in it’s natural form with the world around presenting signals constantly to inform about the situation and what is required, even if that ‘something’ is ‘nothing’. It’s the awakened reality of nature.
¿How does some one escapes the matrix and enters the real world?
One has to undo all hypnotic layers of acquired trances throughout life since conception forward. There are temporary shortcuts but to maintain in a sustainable way in the real world, one has to do the “work”, and then sustain the inner state or inner Self, cleaning regularly the disorder of irradiated emotional energies from people still in the matrix. One can do this through decades of meditative practices, living in segregated or religious communities or one can benefit from new and more efficient ways developed in the last 20 years after extensive scientific-technological research. This is the Holigral offering.
What is Holigral?
Holigral is a model of reality which offers a platform of tools developed from disciplines related to Artificial Intelligence, like Signal Intelligence and Pattern Recognition and more, using as well anthropology and stories.
The method was created by Pam Saunders after an experience of +30 years in the design of intelligent defensive systems for the UK armed forces.
Its psychological based scope which ‘grows people up’ into adults with no “inner child”; healthy, balanced human beings - without emotional dramas, without judgemental r busy minds, to a beingness where all is seen in true proportion. Not all of this is pleasant viewing or even explicable to others, but at least one has true appreciation of the sickness and distortions inherent in society and an idea of how to make the changes required.
Holigral helps to re-understand the world, at a fractal level, all the layers, all the cycles and the phases, to get the underlying games, stories, influences, historical causes and even projective magic that happens unconsciously.
Holigral is about death and resurrection. When if not now? who if not you?
What can it do for me?
The Holigral Method provides a box of models and tools to be implemented on any particular need, goal or challenge or a combination of those. It addresses our limiting mind structures and releases the psychic energy and life force invested in holding them still. The method elegantly heals that which needs to heal and upgrades that which needs to stay functional and in need to improve. This logic applies to everything so you can expect to heal deep traumatic wounds still influencing us, attain a more balanced and harmonious inner self, enhanced attributes of your human being like creativity, intuition and more. Holigral allows for better decision making as one grows in situational awareness at every level.
For top performers, this mean releas burn out and grow in resilience and clarity of mind, ability to read signals on any situation so the adaptability and leadership into best options for life improves naturally. As it affects integrally our life, one can expect to allow the emergence of a multiplicity of benefits on life areas as parent and motherhood, team building and integration, efficiency, improving time availability and motivation. More to achieve in less time.
As you progress in your own journey, you set the aims, pace and reach of the work you do and with the facilitators input, one can allow for a deeper and more meaningful understanding of your experience and strategies into sorting out that which you find along the days of the retreat.
This method allows to do a safe and deep work with our shadow. Entering the dark side is an inevitable part of a heroe´s journey as we all have unwanted or unrecognised aspects of self that we hide in the shadows. Imagine the investment of psychic energy and life force to keep that hiding from us, what would it mean for you to heal and integrate all that focus, energy and control? Have you contemplated the gifts that await to that who accepts oneself unconditionally, to do abide in such peace with the world around that as well?.
Holigral brings life to that which needs to be illuminated in order to be understood, healed, integrated and synergise with your wholeness. No other methodology offers a path with such ease, safety and resolve. One needs to do the work yet the tools are crafted for this moments and the space you walk upon is supported with the craft and personal experience of Jorge our host and facilitator in Mexico. Pam joins from time to time and with them, you are properly supported at every step of this unique journey into one-self.
The Holigral Method has been applied to support the healing process of a myriad of requirements ranging from trauma resolution, spirit and consciousness, mental health and issues, loss and bereavement, change management, personal performance, addiction recovery, entrepreneurship and incubation, team work, sports performance, innovation, business tools, personality profiling, family, couples and home schooling and many more areas of applicability. This is the Holy Grail, indeed.
How is a working day with Holigral?
You are hosted in a luxury venue with your personal room with bathroom and shower. The house is located 1.5 hrs from Mexico City in a mountainous place. The place has gardens, pool, view and mild weather with storms during summer. The house is fully equiped with wi-fi, first aid, housekeeping and assistance in case you need any last moment items like toiletries, pharmacy and so.
We start the day with breakfast at 9:00 am and begin facilitation about 10:30 each day. Delegates are given instructions on the first day and each one then chooses a suitable place to work individually with the provided materials for the duration of the retreat. The work is self applied and the facilitator supervises your progress and assist the emergence of your work as needed through out your stay. As you progress in your work, you are allowed to set your pauses and enjoy the venue freely. We usually have pool and sunbeds to have a refreshing time off.
Along the day, you are provided with refreshments and snacks and lunch time usually is at 14.30 and dinner at 7:00. This are mexican meal times being lunch the main one. We can accomodate some preferences although we usually have mexican cuisine which can be adapted to some requirements (spicyness, vegetarian, etc.).
Working hours are flexible and the day mostly evolves around your individual experience as you process at your own pace, style and inner mindscapes -some are easy to travel and some are not. This means that as you find information, insights, challenges you will be interacting with the facilitator at different moments to expand the focus of the process, review your findings and adapt or assign next processes to be used. This are exercises with clean questions which you apply to the information that emerges from your own mind-body system and personal history.
The interactions with our facilitator allows for you to be guided through particular stages in your processing that require particular skill to hold the space for you to work on energetic flows of consciousness, channeling, emotional expressions, visions and other incidental phenomena that emerges from the work you do.
Our meals are served by our kitchen staff who will provide a typical mexican menu which can be adapted to your requirements as well as mexican cuisine adapts to must tastes and needs. Expect abundance and flavours. This adds a extra layer of experience to this retreat.
And because coming to Mexico allows for a broader stay, we have set up a menu of activities which can be organised so you choose to extend your stay for a few days. We recommend to add three days more to your visit and have a few things more to enjoy:
We hope you can take some time off your routine, allow yourself some time with yourself and maybe a loved one and experience one of the most, if not the most innovative, disruptive and effective approach to deep transformational experiences.
We are going to love being your hosts, facilitators and maybe life long companions on a journey in this mortal coil which is pure beingness, consciousness and joy in its core. Namaste.

Some testimonials from our retreats
I hit my mid-life crisis about 8 years. I look back and I wonder who that person was. I knew I had to make changes if I was going to survive and lead a successful life. I searched the self help section of each book store in search of the answer. I was first told about the Steven Saunders work by someone I met on the party island Ibiza. This guy, who has now become a great friend told me about Holigral and my only regret is not making the choice to attend the 7 day retreat sooner.
Wow, what an experience! I no longer need to search for the meaning of life. I have clarity on my life purpose, I am in charge of my emotions and I have eliminated the self limiting beliefs that were holding me back. I now know what I have to do to achieve the life I dream of and I know I will succeed. The joy and happiness I experienced during those 7 days has stayed with me. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
My life has change dramatically. My relationships are stronger, I get up in the morning knowing I will achieve what I set out to do and I have a completely new perspective on life. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is serious about taking the ride of their life. This is not for wimps… but the rewards are the rewards of the gods.

This retreat has been one of the best time and money investments because I am still seeing new results on a daily basis and in different situations. More than a method to change myself, this has been a process to reintegrate my dissociated zones, to heal past injuries, to reframe definitory moments and to recognize myself within my personal context and even above my own circumstance.
Thank you, Pam & Jorge for this set of invaluable tools.

I'm not sure there is any way to adequately describe the end result of a 7 day Holigral retreat but I will try. Every participant comes with their own set of life experiences, goals, and issues. However, one thing is certain, you will never be the same. The results, insights, and benefits are permanent. Holigral - holistic & integral - of these two the holistic part is what is hard to articulate. The results of the work are profound but often so subtle in the integration that it can take a while to notice what you're doing differently because you didn't have to exert any effort in the change, you just suddenly realize you're having a different experience of life, you are acting differently, others act differently towards you. Some people fall away without you having done or said anything, some relationship dynamics change for the better without any conscious effort, there is a peace "which passeth understanding" that simply eliminates a huge amount of drama from your life. There are physical effects as well, less aches and pains as the former emotional toll ceases to exist. There is more laughter. I also experienced "the arkangle" or the" time machine" as I like to call it. It will take you on a trip to emotional freedom that cannot be experienced otherwise nor can I explain how it does what it does ~ let's just say I highly recommend you try it.
My retreat was in Cuernavaca, Mexico. The location was beautiful and restful, the people involved, both facilitators and participants, far sighted, supportive, and eager for change. It is the perfect environment for an overhaul of one's life. The end results for me are many ~ insight into "why I do what I do" and that knowledge ending numerous repetitive and negative life cycle loops permanently and effortlessly, removal of addiction to caffeine with no symptoms of withdrawal, the end of a 2 year stretch of chronic neck pain, the sudden end of a long term issue at work of immense annoyance and energy drain, improved communication (once the measurements are gone you aren't drawn into other people's story unless you want to be), and a focused life path from a "clean" perspective. My deepest appreciation to Pam Saunders and Jorge Carrillo for their dedication to their work and ongoing support of retreat graduates. The retreat is not the end of a journey, it is the beginning.

You are the most farsighted person I have met in my entire life.
-David Grove, the late genius therapist and creator of Clean Language
I have done Steve’s retreat in Glastonbury this summer. And while, I will not venture in understanding the underpinning philosophy and scientific approach, I find the work very beneficial and would recommend it to anyone who really is interested in something innovative and effective. In other words I don’t know why it works, but it does. ;-)

A considerable difference compared to how I felt before. You have no idea on how this has made a difference in my relation with my team. The most profound experience of my life.
-Dan Tasset, President. Nueterra Healthcare. U.S.A.
I feel the changes in the way I manage everyday situations previously more challenging. I have more patience, I notice first my thoughts and feelings. I set the appropriateness and I no loner forget to set my limits to speak with incredible honesty. I have calmness and I transfer it to the people around me.
