I don’t know where I’d be without the spiritual retreats, I’ve taken over the years. Whether they are a half-day, weekend or longer, they are encapsulated moments to find your grounding and your inspiration. At the same time, they expand how you understand yourself and the possibilities beckoning to be explored and then lived, once you emerge. Here are a few ways to know if your soul is asking you to take yourself into sacred time and space:
- You are yearning for more in your life, or in some cases to let go and have less, in order to experience deeper meaning in your day-to-day.
- You are seeking solitude, not so much to be alone but to be without distraction from knowing your own divine wisdom.
- You are seeking community. One that nurtures a collective consciousness that expands the human heart, rather than stifling it.
- Curiosity about living in a fresh way outweighs any apprehension you are feeling about change.
- New feelings, energies and ideas are emerging in your awareness. Maybe you’ve already been living into them and need to keep the channels open to the sacred guidance from within.
