Rest, Relax and Reflect - 4 nights: Monday 2nd - Friday 6th October 2023

An opportunity to come for 4 nights' full board in a relaxed and peaceful environment, offering space to re-balance and re-centre coming up to the wintry period. It is often good to just take some time to yourself, away from the hustle and bustle of life and we hope this time can give you some rest.

As it is not a silent retreat there will be spaces set aside for conversation and for quiet reflective time. Spiritual accompaniment is available.  Guests are invited to join our regular morning and evening silent meditation (30 mins) in the beautiful sanctuary.

Through turmoil to transformation a retreat with Margaret Silf - 4 nights: Saturday, 14 October 2023 - Wednesday, 18 October 2023

We are living through times of extreme turmoil and uncertainty that are often, rightly,
called ‘unprecedented’. The crises seem to multiply, some of them natural and inevitable,
most however the consequence of our human impact on the planet and on each other, and
the breakdown of many of our institutions. There is a serious decline in the supply of hope
and trust in the world and this can leave us feeling helpless in the face of all that is
happening around us.

This retreat is offered as a space where we might gather together in a place of peace and
stillness to reflect on where we find ourselves, and to re-kindle a flame of authentic hope in
the future. To help us in our reflections we will use the model of the metamorphosis of the
caterpillar’s transformation into the butterfly. There we find a pattern of the initial self-
focused and excessive consumption of the caterpillar, through what a appears to be a
catastrophic breakdown in the chrysalis, to the emergence of the butterfly – the ‘flying
flower’. This pattern is repeated in other contexts, including in our own lives and the life of
the world, and will, I hope, give us reason to trust that in all that is breaking down around
us, there is an invitation to evolve to higher levels of what it means to be human.

There will be two sessions of ‘input’ each day, when different aspects of this dynamic of
transformation will be presented. Between sessions there will be ample free time for
private reflection, rest and recreation. In the evening there will be time for those who wish
to gather round the fire for conversation.
