A Retreat is.....

An opportunity to step outside of everyday life, to leave the usual distractions and activities behind for a while, and to dedicate some time and space to your self. In the retreat environment, you can let the mask you normally wear slip away and begin to reconnect with your own true nature.

Healing Core Issues
Core issues are those unconscious beliefs that were formed in response to early painful experiences, and which generate habitual behaviours and disturbing emotional reactions throughout our lives. Through careful listening behind the words and observation of non-verbal signals such as facial expressions, posture and spontaneous gestures we can gain access to core beliefs and initiate the process of healing and inner transformation.

With a focus on present moment-to-moment experience, as a bridge between the unconscious and conscious, these implicit beliefs and the automatic ways in which we perceive our world will gently be brought to light. Once conscious, outdated beliefs which no longer serve us can be re-evaluated and adjusted, helping to minimize unnecessary suffering. From this standpoint of awareness, insights and new possibilities can arise which were previously inaccessible. By working together in a small and supportive group setting, we can facilitate deep and lasting healing in ourselves and each other.

This is a hands-on, experiential workshop which is open to anyone. Participants will gain greater self-awareness together with freedom from limiting beliefs and old emotional wounds. Practitioners and students of the healing arts will find that learning and integrating these skills will also deepen and enhance their own client work.

Schedule:
The retreat will commence at 3pm on Thursday 27th October and finish around 3pm on Sunday 30th October. We will have workshop sessions each day together with some free time to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Wisteria Acres.
