Would you love a day to reset?
Take a day to yourself, free of distraction, stimulus and input, to experience yourSelf. In Reset, you can expect a wonderful day of healing silence and insightful meditation. I’ve designed the meditations to help refocus your busy mind, restore your nervous system and clear your energy field so you can move through Spring with a clearer sense of presence, awareness and embodiment.
This day is for you if:
You crave a day to yourself, free of distraction, stimulus and input so you can reconnect with yourself
You want to refocus your mind and get out of the chitter chatter in your brain
You want to remember what it’s like to live in and experience the present moment
You want to reconnect with your body for a deeper sense of aliveness
You want to clear out any noise or energy that’s not yours and come back to your own knowing
You want to deepen the meditation practice you already have or challenge yourself
You want to meditate in community with others, to benefit from the energy of the group and learn from other like minded individuals
ABOUT THE RETREAT
I love one day retreats because they are a great way to get a concentrated dose of focus and self-connection. When I first started meditating years ago, joining half-day or day long retreats with a group was how I began to hone and upgrade my practice beyond my daily 10-30 minute sits. Today, they are still one of my favorite ways to regroup when I need a reset.
Our one day retreat will take place via zoom and include alternating sitting and walking meditations, with time to be outdoors if your environment allows it.
It is strongly encouraged that you observe silence throughout the day (except during group discussions), turn off all devices, and minimize distractions to experience yourself, and the day, fully.
+ things you will need
A quiet space to yourself. For some of you, this may mean placing a sign on your door to let your roommates/family etc know you are practicing silence
A comfortable chair or meditation pillow
A prepared lunch, something light that doesn’t feel too heavy to you, otherwise you run the risk of falling asleep during your after lunch meditation (speaking from experience here ;)
A water bottle, and other lovely beverages you enjoy (tea, coffee)
A journal pad and pen. We may use this during some brief group discussions
Shoes that are easy to slip on and off as you may be going in and out of the room, taking some walking breaks in between meditation
Rain gear if it’s raining (jacket, umbrella etc)
“Miraculous things happens when we cultivate a sacred connection with ourselves, in stillness and in quietude.
