Desert Retreat 2 - Campfire in the Heart
Silent Retreat 29th April - 2nd May 2027
Available spots
Description
To go into the heart of our land, to sit in her centre, stretching ourselves into the silence outside - to find the silence within. We are surely held by the spirit of our place, that which is deep and abiding. We don't have the oldest living race by accident, we are part of something so profound. Let us enter the space and listen, in silence, quietening what so disturbs our own centre.... and become available, by yoga practice, silence, sitting and encouraging a tranquil heart; a relaxed body. In 2027, there will be two linked retreats with time in between. The first is a 10 session, 5 night Contemplative Yoga Retreat The second is a 6 session, 3 night Contemplative Silent Retreat The silent retreat will have space for your own practice, but there will not be classes as such.
