Meditating and Making

The day will begin with a guided meditation using a found vessel as your inspiration for an imaginative narrative and prayerful exploration.

The rest of the day will be spent meditating as you make a cloth vessel using slow hand stitching in response to this initial meditation.

This will be a fun day of doodling, mark making, and imaginative drawing aimed at awakening your sense of the spiritual.

No experience or artistic ability is needed, and all materials will be provided.

Come for as few or as many days as you wish These retreats will introduce ways of stilling yourself and prayer material. There will be the opportunity to meet with a guide each day

“If you stand still for a few minutes in the relentless onward rush of 21st century life you might hear a quiet but insistent undercurrent. It is the cry of our hearts for space and time just to be, to listen to the heartbeat of creation, to let our souls catch up. Quiet gardens offer just such longed-for oases of peace. They open up once more what all our busy-ness has buried – the precious gift of heart-time and soul-space.”

Margaret Silf – patron of The Quiet Garden Movement

Why silence?

Most people have a yearning for tranquillity and peace. By taking part in a silent retreat, you will have the opportunity to draw back from the normal routines and busyness of life to reflect and allow space for new encounters.

The Purpose of the workshop is to work within the context of personal growth. Having done the initial Enneagram groundwork and gone deeper, in this next workshop we seek to explore spiritual growth via upstream and downstream exercises. We then will be studying the concept of the Soul Child and delve into deeper waters of what we most judge.
