"Creation Station was a life changing event that has had a huge impact on my life. The magic of it began from the moment I made the decision to come to it. I have never felt so loved, valued, supported, and welcomed every step of the way. The days after I left were filled with synchronicities and beautiful meetings, that seemed to flow to me effortlessly, thanks to my new found open state of consciousness."
-Caz Coronel, DJ and Producer

"As a two time attendee of Creation Station, I am a true believer in the program. Being able to be around other musicians and creators in a safe, non-ego based space where we are all exploring the edges of consciousness and learning more about ourselves is a valuable experience. I’ve walked away from both Creation Stations (the live one and the online version) with breakthrough insights on projects, and life in general. The people I’ve met are incredible and I’ve formed long term relationships with several of them. If you are an artist looking for an introduction to an easy tap to your creative core, this is it."
-Justin Handley, Musician and Producer

"Creation Station (Virtual Retreat) was a wonderful experience for me. The exercises were powerful, especially one of them which helped me to unlock an emotional issue I must have stored away in my unconscious. I can imagine it is even more powerful as an in-person event in regards to interacting with the other participants in real life, but even as an online event, I was able to get a lot out of it. I can highly recommend it and hope to be able to participate again.”
-Robot Koch (aka, Foam and Sand,) Performer and Producer

"I can still feel the weekend attending creation station in October [2023] very vividly in my mind and body as it has helped me make a major shift in my daily habits. I felt a deep physical and spiritual reset that I intend to integrate in my further journey. At first I was not sure how something like this would play out, in a small group setting and online via zoom, but Ignacio, the facilitator, was guiding everyone so effortlessly and was gently moving the conversations after each meditation forward creating a completely safe space for everyone's feelings. The exchange with the group after each experience was very inspiring and after these three days it felt like strangers became friends.”
-Delhia de France, Performer and Producer

"Creation Station is an incredible experience that I would recommend to any artist looking to expand their craft and consciousness. Both the exercises and the participants that this course attracts have left me with a renewed appreciation for both music and my own spirituality. I am amazed at how Monroe Sound Science has evolved as well as their commitment to raise awareness through supporting creatives."
-Jay Willow, Performer and Recording Artist

"It was a memorable week, and I am grateful for the opportunity to participate. I learned more about myself and was able to interact with some very amazing people, with whom I achieved a lasting bond. Best of all I came home with new inspiration to go deeper into the production of my own music in order to make it even better. Highly recommended."
-Howard Patterson, Composer and Producer

"Taking part in this course afforded me some experiences in meditation that provided significant awakenings and realizations on my healing journey-both spiritually and physically...there was a shift that occurred in how I relate to myself as an artist, a deepening of my trust in my own choices and process, and the beginning of a new body of work. Creation Station was a pivotal week in my evolution as an artist and a human and I am grateful beyond measure for the opportunity."
-Jo Hunt, Musician and Producer

"Creation Station Virtual Retreat was an insightful journey that gave me the opportunity to explore the reaches of my own consciousness and how it relates to self-expression and creativity. I went into the virtual retreat with an open mind and was blown away with the experiences that came from it. The sense of community and getting to share and hear from others is a huge benefit of learning in this kind of format. Ignacio's ability to guide the group through exercises and help set our intentions made the experience informative and inspiring. I came away from the weekend excited to continue my meditation practice and inspired to keep exploring my own creativity. I highly recommend Creation Station to anyone who is curious about their own consciousness and how it relates to creative inspiration and expression."
-Samara Wright, Singer and Visual Artist

“I recently had the pleasure of participating in the Creation Station Virtual Retreat led by Ignacio Diaz, Jr., through the Monroe Institute. Our group had an absolute blast! The synchronicities we experienced were nothing short of incredible—there were moments during and after the retreat that felt truly magical. For instance, I created art that I hadn’t been able to produce before, only to discover that someone else in the class had drawn almost the exact same thing! Many of us had profound meditation experiences, and it was awesome to talk those out as a group. This retreat helped me gain deeper understanding of the experiences I've been going through, both creatively and spiritually. Since the virtual retreat, I’ve been flooded with new creative ideas and feel a strong urge to create, especially when it comes to music and art. Ignacio’s warmth, kindness, and expert guidance were key to making the retreat so impactful. You can tell that he genuinely loves what he does, and it shows in how effortlessly he leads and supports each participant. Monroe Institute is fortunate to have someone as balanced and talented as Ignacio on their team. I can’t thank the Monroe Institute enough for this enriching experience. I’m already looking forward to my next retreat with them!”
