Rekindling the Spirit
Aug 21 - 27, 2010
Camp Northwaters, Lake Temagami, Ontario, Canada
This seven-day workshop is for those who feel their lives are frequently filled with the daily patterns of frenzy and a loss of deeper spirit—what Rilke calls "this steeply sloping hour."
Too often we find ourselves running fast—sometimes loving it, but running nonetheless—and at a certain level we forget to breathe. Not the in-out, in-out unconscious repetition that simply fuels the engine, but the long, full, slow breaths that sustain and remind us of a deeper reason why. There are precious few places where we can get so powerful a reminder. If we don't intentionally take the time and make the effort, then our lives keep moving, and it doesn't happen.
Rekindling the Spirit KENYA!
October 16-25, 2010
Optional three day safari October 24-28, 2010
Bogani Cottages, Masai Mara, Kenya, Africa
Located at a beautiful eco-retreat center in the African Mara, we will live in the ancestral land of the Maasai people on a millennium old migration route that is home to the largest and most spectacular wildlife migration in the world.
Our time will be spent in three primary ways: connecting with spirit, experiencing the natural world of the Masai Mara and in service to community. Bogani Cottages and Tented Camp will be our base. Rustic yet luxurious, the cottages boast all the comforts of home in a uniquely African design. The comfortable accommodations will be perfect for our inner work as we sit on African soil, meet Maasai warriors, see wandering herds of zebra and elephants and settle into the rhythms of the African landscape.
