Meet the Hosts
Let us introduce ourselves. We are Curtis Killorn and Michelle Gauer and together we have created Living Sacred Soul Retreats. Curtis is a lifelong Visionary Artist who has resided for most of his life in Salida Colorado. He is known for his painted dead trees and for his stories which often start with, "one time at Burningman." A longtime seeker of the divine, Curtis' perspective on life, love, and the pursuit of wholeness is an inspiration to us all. Oh, and he is an incredible chef!
Michelle Gauer is a longtime resident of Iowa. She combines her bodywork and years of study with the psychic and mediumship realm to create space where true healing and the art of letting go can happen. Michelle embodies the mantra, Be realistic, expect a miracle. She is a 200 hour Kundalini Yoga Instructor and is the Author of several oracle card decks.

Meet the Dogs
Meet Lucy and Merlin. We live on the bottom floor of the Thornton House and you may notice us basking in the sun in the backyard or barking at strangers walking by. We love treats of any kind and when guests take us for walks around town.
