Mini-Retreats at Leasowes Farm

5.0(4)

By Contemplative at Home

Life is hectic. Finding time out feels almost impossible. We want to pray, we want to reflect, but when we do find a snatched moment to ourselves, we remain distracted. I've designed this space to help you reconnect with your breath, to gently stretch your body, and to listen... to the voice of your inner wisdom, and to the voice of your Beloved.  We will meditate with Christian scripture, we will journal, we will use creative means to listen to the Spirit. We will share silence, we will move our bodies, we will sit with Love. A little time out, to check in. I hope you will come away feeling centred, refreshed and assured of your belovedness. Two hours at Leasowes Farm in Warwickshire, UK in a small group setting (max 8). Each month a new theme will be explored. Different dates in the same month will cover the same material. See the 'Virtual Mini Retreats' page for a Zoom-based version of the same retreat. "Come away with me to a quiet place" Mark 6:31 What Past Participants are Saying  "Lovely refreshing space to think, move and journal. Thank you." - Seringa "So grateful for 2 hours of guided calm led by Lissy. The barn at Leasowes farm provides the perfect place to relax and become still. Lissy ensured that we all felt comfortable with a gentle structure to the morning. Thank you." - Pam "Thank you so much for this wonderful session Lissy, which reminded me that my soul is such a multi-faceted place deep inside of me that is always being nourished with love." - Nikki The sessions will be shaped around the following themes this year: October: Teresa of Avila November: Letting Go December: Advent / Expectant Hope January: The Gifts of Winter Darkness February: Love March: Lent April: No Session May: Resurrection / Spring June: TBC July: The Gifts of Summer August: No Session Mini-Retreats are hosted by Lissy Clarke, spiritual director, yoga and meditation teacher best known for the weekly audio meditations at Contemplative at Home. Lissy and her family live at Leasowes Farm, a late 17th century farmhouse nestled in the Warwickshire countryside where they have developed the outbuildings to be used as a place for rest and retreat. We look forward to welcoming you here.

Breathe: Qigong and Breathwork Day Retreat

By Sunhouse

Breathe A day retreat at The Sunhouse: Relax, Let Go & Be at Peace this Autumn Sunday 24th November 10.30am-5pm Price £70 for the whole day A day of Qigong, Forest Bathing, Breathwork & Meditation (includes delicious vegetarian organic soup, seasonal snacks and herbal drinks) Join me for a day retreat in the beauty of the Sunhouse to embrace the season of Autumn and the METAL Element. A wonderful opportunity to take time out and align yourself with the natural flow of energy of the season. At this time of year we focus on our lungs, our breath and our strong and healthy immune system. Just as the leaves are falling from the trees, nature supports us to let go of that which we no longer need and to appreciate that which is of value in our lives. Breath is life, it is the energy or “Qi” that sustains life within every cell. When we breathe well our entire body receives the energy it needs. When we reconnect with our breath we become calm, aware and in control and we can begin to bring balance to our lives and access places of deep peace within. WHATS INCLUDED: – Qigong exercises to support our lungs and strengthen our Qi. Increasing our flow of energy & improving our immunity – Learn The Bird Form a beautiful Qigong form designed to help “transform grief into love” This form has a light, uplifting, energising quality leaving us bright eyed and full of joy. – Forest Bathing in the beautiful woodland taking time to pause and listen to the forest around us, absorbing the healing energy of the trees. – Guided Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey to open our lungs and increase awareness of our breath. Encouraging detoxification of your body, releasing stuck energy and beliefs and resetting your whole nervous system. Giving you the tools to transform and to let go of whatever may be holding you back from living the life you truly want to live. In the morning we will practice some simple qigong exercises, movements and meditations to access the deeper energies within us. Then its time to enter the woods together to connect with the living Earth. As we walk through the woods, we will take time to pause and play with our Qigong moving meditations, listening to the forest around us, waking up our the wild within us. After a delicious lunch, we will lie down and relax into the support of the ground to receive a deep healing Breathwork Session. We will use conscious connected breathing to encourage detoxification of your body, releasing stuck energy and beliefs and resetting your whole nervous system. Giving you the tools to transform and to let go of whatever may be holding you back from living the life you truly want to live. Come and join me and nourish yourself in the beauty of life. Relax, Let Go & Be at Peace this Autumn Price includes a delicious vegetarian soup, herbal teas and delicious seasonal treats If you are interested but have more questions please contact me. I would love to hear from you.  Contact me for more details  Tel: 07779151916 emma@bringingbalance.co.uk
