Jon Sheppard April 1st-15th, 2019Jon Sheppard says he has always been addicted to adventure. He has written award winning books in which he shares insights, stories and his photography. During his many adventures, he has dived for sunken treasure, jumped out of high flying planes, run a rock climbing school, taught kayaking, been a whitewater rafting guide, and learned to ski when he moved to the Colorado high country. He and two friends have raised over $20,000 for the Disabled Ski Team by skiing eighteen different ski areas in one, very long day, which is also a world record. He has played the drums in the country music world and worked for many years in television production as a camera man. Those adventures, his travels and his past work experiences have combined to give him a keen eye when photographing life around him.

You’ll feel a lightness of being from this powerful and healing practice.
