  Inner Peace, Outer Peace Retreat   Saturday, Sept 20 - Sunday, Sept 21, 2014    ( Sorry - now full)

2 Day Retreat
Date: Saturday, Sept 20 - Sunday, Sept 21, 2014
Location:  Renewal Retreat
Facilitator: Therese Bowler 

In celebration of the International Day of Peace on Sept 21st, this retreat will offer various forms of Peace Meditation (guided, silent, walking and yoga meditations). Our intention is to foster peace within ourselves, peace with nature, and peace in our world. The weekend will move from inner awareness to outer action, as we share our hopes and ideas for creating a more peaceful world, one step at a time. Our mindfulness practice will flow from inner awareness to outer awareness, by connecting with others around the globe who will also be holding Peace celebrations. As an act of intentional solidarity with all beings of the world, we will create a Group Peace Pole that will stand at the centre of Renewal Retreat's Peace Labyrinth. Each person will also be invited to create a Peace Pole of your own, to place in the space of your choosing (your yard, home, school, garden, community).  This is a sacred, joyful process that we hope you will extend to your loved ones.




The retreat will also provide plenty of quiet time to enjoy the riverfront grounds: relax in the hammock, soak in the hot tub, read by the river, paddle in the pond, go for a bike road along the country road, sit by the camp fire, and simply breathe. 
 
Fee:

“Be still.  Stillness reveals the secrets of eternity”  Lao Tzu

Autumn Retreat - The Quiet Within Saturday, October 25 - Sunday, October 26, 2014
(9:00 am Sat - 5:00 pm Sunday)

This weekend retreat is for those who wish to step back from the rush of life, the chatter of the mind, and practice stillness. 
The changing colours, the singing birds, and the flowing river will be our guides to the quiet within.

In stillness, what no longer serves us can arise. The practice of mindfulness (non-judgmental awareness) allows us to observe and release limitations of the mind, leaving that beautiful space of infinite quiet within.

The weekend includes individual and group meditation, yoga, journalling, quiet nature walks, and sage ceremony in the tipi.


The retreat will also provide plenty of quiet time to enjoy the riverfront grounds: relax in the hammock, soak in the hot tub, read by the river, 
paddle in the pond, go for a bike road along the country road, 
sit by the camp fire, and simply breathe. 

Fee:  $250.00 (plus HST)  Total: $282.50
Includes: Overnight accommodation in the log retreat.  
             All vegetarian meals ( lunch, dinner, healthy snacks, teas/                           beverages on Sat and breakfast, lunch snacks and teas on Sunday.) 


    Register with a friend, and both receive $32.50 off the registration fee.

MINDFULNESS & MEDITATION FOR CHILDREN

The first thing we do when we are born is breathe.
The last thing we do before we die is breathe.
And all the moments in between - we breathe.

Let us teach our children how to breathe well.
Let us teach children to breathe peace in, and breathe peace out.  
Let us teach children to be self aware.
Let us teach children kindness and compassion for all living beings.  

This is also how we end bullying - one breath at a time. 

Contact Therese to facilitate mindfulness meditation for your class.
