Dear friends,

​

This summer I ran a new online retreat called “The Energetics Spiritual Self-care” It is a theme that I have felt emerging with greater importance over the past few years and one that I feel has become fundamental to not just our spiritual path but our whole life more broadly. Since then I have had many requests to re-run this programme both from those who missed it the first time around and others who would like to revisit the work.

Now that we have delayed the start of our year long “Art of Concentration” programme until after the new year, I am going to offer this very special online retreat again in early December (7th/8th December).

Whether you are looking to reset and recalibrate in time for Christmas or whether you want to explore the important role that Spiritual self-care plays in our ongoing wellbeing at all levels, you might like to consider joining this retreat.

In a new addition to the weekend retreat program I will be offering an additional module in which I will introduce you to a series of key questions and parameters that you can use as a compass to map your own individual progress over time to help you build the disciplines of self-care into your daily lives.

Energetic self-care is fundamental to success in meditation and all of our spiritual practice. Perhaps even more importantly, the state of our subtle energetic makeup absolutely determines the quality of our experience in daily life. It’s all too easy to only see things such as stress, anxiety and insomnia as psychological problems. But a large part of these conditions are a reflection of the fact that we are poorly organised energetically.

This weekend retreat is designed to supplement your meditation practice, giving you the tools to regulate and self-manage the health of your subtle energy body.

We will take a look at the principles of managing our vital energy and how it reflects and affects the state of our sense of well being - physical, mental and emotional.

The weekend will be a balanced mix of powerful self-care practices and an in-depth exploration of some of the pervasive sabotaging programs and behaviours that undermine us and positive and empowering habits we can develop to remedy them. The practices and themes we will explore will include:

• Opening up the breathing apparatus and diaphragm in preparation for breath work
• Tuning into the subtle energy body and unblocking the chakras
• Regulating the vagus nerve and the autonomic nervous system
• Learning to reorganise ourselves skilfully from an incoherent / misorganised state to a coherent and harmonious state.
• Exploring our decision making skills
• Developing healthy self discipline as a path to refinement of character
• Energetic self-care as the bedrock of higher spiritual practice
• Now to positively navigate times of instability and major challenge
• Establishing an appropriate mindset and attitude towards spiritual practice within the context of daily life
