what is a retreat ?
Sitting Meditation
No experience necessary. The heart based meditation provides the contemplation for the day and when practiced during the retreat stay, lessens mental activity while bringing us closer to our inner peace and love. Each day we practice gentleness to ourselves and others, softening our awareness and honoring our humanness. Each retreat provides suggestions about how to continue your retreat in your daily life. Meditation benches, cushions or chairs are provided. The meditation periods are a spiritual support and an anchor for your retreat. If you need extra instruction we are here to help.
Heart centered quiet
Capturing reflective moments supports us to receive the beauty in nature, meditation, the quiet of our own heart. Here is the simple joy of just being. Each moment there is the opportunity to be available to ourselves, nature's sights, sounds, life touching, inspiring our retreat.
These are precious days free from our personal story and all that we are doing. In the quiet we open to the peace that is all around us and in our hearts. This is a time to practice beingness. The quiet helps everyone find our inner sanctuary, that is always present.
