InnerSense with Graham Mead Thursday 23 - Wednesday 29th April
In this retreat we will be exploring self-observation in depth - what it is and what it isn’t. Some of the topics we’ll explore include attention vs intention, relational awareness and insight, cultivating qi, opening the body and stabilising attention.
Body opening and partner practices enable a visceral (felt) experience of your nervous system, giving you increasing governance over how you react to the world and aids in bringing insight into the biology. We’ll be freeing up the fascia, liberating and accumulating qi in the body and doing mind strengthening practices to cultivate Will, determination and stability of mind.
A 6-day retreat is transformative and will enrich your life significantly. With very little distraction and a peaceful setting we can explore the mind-body-spirit relationship in depth. People who have attended long retreats, have found them to be particularly valuable, not only for the significant deepening of their practice, but also the community and support that develops amongst attendees.
If you really want to transform your mind and body, make this retreat a priority this year. It’s deeply replenishing, fascinating, educational and fun…and the food is great.
