Retreats

“The Value of Retreats”

The “value of retreats” is to temporarily withdraw from your familiar, ordinary everyday experiences. It is to practice internal cultivation through qigong movements and meditation in order to regain your vitality, and sense of purpose, become enlivened, and emerge with a clear vision of who you are and what is your continued life path. Further, the purpose of a retreat is to be in the presence of the teacher who is the conduit for the healing qi and responsible for its transmission through the teacher-student relationship. Through direct teacher guidance, in both movement practices and quiet sitting meditation, the teacher’s spiritual direction is essential for the transmission of subtle energies and higher truths.
