Hello to you. I’m Val Jon Farris, your Axis Mundi Retreat Center host and Retreat Guide.  Since I write my own bios I’ll do it in first person. I have dedicated over 30 years of my life to exploring and charting the terrain between what I call the nexus between the inner and outer world, and it’s counterpart the Earth and Cosmos.  I’ve hosted many expeditions to extraordinary destinations on Earth as well as acted as a guide and mentor for accessing what I call “universal wisdom.” 

I took my vows of Bodhisattva at the age of 18 and soon after had the great fortune to personally learn the ways of stewardship and deep life contribution from extraordinary human beings such as Buckminster Fuller, Swami Muktananda, Sathya Sai Baba and Zen Master, Roshi Mumon Yamada. These rare encounters set in motion a future path for me as a dedicated facilitator of deep self-development work and spiritual maturation. 

In addition to my role as a personal growth facilitator, I’m also the CEO of Diamius Multinational, an international leadership development firm. Over the last 25 years I’ve had the privilege of championing enterprise-level programs for Fortune 50’s in the U.S.A, Canada, Europe, Latin America, Asia and India.  My company’s clients include Hewlett-Packard Company, Agilent Technologies, Intel, Yahoo, Intuit, Pacific Telesis and many others.  My area of expertise is in C-Suite Executive Mentoring and designing and delivering large-scale workforce initiatives that foster leadership greatness, superlative character and peak performance. I ‘ a business development mentor for Richard Branson’s XTC Academy and a recipient of numerous global industry leadership development awards. I love writing and contribute to many publications including the Huffington Post.
