Hear from past participants:
“This retreat is a unique experience to connect with other like-minded individuals on a beautiful remote mountain property. An opportunity to go inwards and share deeply with others, while playing and laughing a lot along the way.” - Tom K.
“This was my first ever retreat, didn’t really know what to expect, never meditated before or believed in it. With Timothy and Edmund’s guidance, I was able to slow my pace down through meditation and really go deep within. If you’re even considering in participating, do yourself a favor and take the leap. You will not be disappointed.” Brian B.
“Grateful for the experience, the blindfold fast combination was powerful — the activities leading up to the blind fast set the stage well. The care of Timothy and Edmund during the retreat was exceptional.” - Erin S.
“I found myself being led deeper and deeper into my heart, and gained skills for living from a more central focus. I can remember few, (if any), occasions in my life when I have felt so completely immersed in experiencing mutual respect, admiration, inspiration and love. Looking forward to the next opportunity to be with Timothy, Edmund.” - D.T.
“If you want a chance to unplug and go inside, this provides a container to go inside yet not feel alone or disconnected from the oneness.” Blake J.
“Life To Me:
The storm surrounds—I’m tossed, afraid,
A victim of the world it made.
Life For Me:
Then comes a shift—I start to see,
Each trial holds a gift for me.
Life By Me:
With will I rise, my path I steer,
I shape my world and cast out fear.
Life Through Me:
A vessel now, the current flows,
Life speaks in me—through me it grows.
Life As Me:
No lines remain, no self to name,
I am the fire, the breath, the flame.””
