Located in San Diego, CA, Villa Kali Ma is a holistic residential treatment center for women.

She is the fierce Mother Goddess, the slayer of demons, the destroyer of ignorance and the negative aspects of the ego. She wears a garland of severed heads around her neck and a skirt of severed arms. The severed heads represent negative Samskara’s, unresolved past traumas, injuries, fears, or pain from the past, which can lead to addiction, depression and low self-esteem. She represents the death of illusion. She liberates her children from the attachment to things that no longer serve them.
