Silent Retreat ~ The Silent Garden of your Heart ~ 3 nights
With Bruce Davis PhD and Ruth Davis, Co-Founder
April 6 - 9, 2023
In the quiet we open to the peace that is all around us and in our hearts.
Days in the silence allow us to receive peace and quiet. Silence is our opportunity to go deeply in meditation, the present moment. The simplicity of just being touches the sacred inside of us. These are precious days free from our daily story and all that we are doing. In the quiet we open to this inner place of love and beauty that is always present but mostly covered up by busy-ness. Silence allows everyone the opportunity to stay with their own thoughts, their inner experience.
The gift of silence is having nothing to do, nothing to say, having time to enjoy solitude, gentleness, a quiet mind.
A retreat is a time to practice beingness.
As we open to silence we become awareness of effortless being. Opening to silence is the path of non-doing or softening the mind and allowing it to rest in the spiritual heart. Here we have come home, where there is nothing to do and everything to receive.
