7-Day Meditation and Contemplation Retreat with Ian and Ruth Gawler plus Julia Broome

THE PROGRAM

Take time out from the busyness of everyday life

Slow down, reflect, regenerate

Learn to overcome confusion, develop clarity and certainty in decision-making

Regain perspective, vitality, balance and clarity

Deepen your understanding and experience of relaxation, mindfulness and meditation

 

This year there will be a focus on the practice of contemplation. You will learn how to think things through, how to overcome confusion, how to develop clarity and certainty in decision making, and more – how to access insight, intuition and inner wisdom in a predictable and reliable way.

Meditation in the Forest will be led by Drs Ian and Ruth Gawler. Based upon Meditation – an In-Depth Guide, it will be of medium intensity. There will be daily instruction from Ian, along with relaxation, mindfulness, meditation and contemplation practices guided by Ian and Ruth, mostly in 40 minute sessions. These will be interspersed with walking meditations, optional yoga and Feldenkrais, time for personal reflection and rest, along with great meals – high quality, organic vegetarian food will be served; much of the food coming from the Centre’s gardens. Also, there will be good time for questions and discussion amidst like-minded people, and specific sessions for health professionals.

This retreat is well suited to all Health Professionals. Certificates of attendance will be provided for those who require them.
