Offered to make your retreat experience easy and enjoyable:
- The most difficult aspect of the retreat is actually deciding to attend.
- Once decided, the second most difficult thing is actually getting there.
- And the third most difficult thing is to leave once the retreat is over.
- Most everyone at the retreat, including myself, have life changing experiences.
- Which is just the beginning, really.
- The retreat is designed for that very purpose - to go back out and create.
- The retreat is not silent. But there are periods of silence.
- The space is more like an experimental incubator than a retreat per se.
- We come together to explore the unknown and make manifest the real.
- Each retreat is different. No two retreats are a like. Nothing is formulaic.
- Each participant is asked to support the creation of original space.
- There is no pressure placed upon anyone to 'perform' or 'speak up.'
- Above all, the retreat is fun, playful and visionary - if you make it so.
- The people we meet at the retreat often become friends for life.
- Lots more can be said, but let that suffice for now. Hope to see you.
- And of course, if you have further questions email me and or phone.
