Lucid Awakening Meditation Retreat

One of the many benefits of a meditation retreat is learning how to distract your mind with something new and interesting so that the same eternal loop in the brain can slow down and stop.

Removing all distractions and surrounding yourself with the peace, tranquility and high energy vibes here at the Vortex Healing Centre can be an enormous assistance.

For the two day awakening retreat, we start at 8 am and start off with a chat and tea or coffee.

Sounds great so far, right?

At 9 am we’ll go down to the yurt and settle in for a 1 hour guided meditation.

At the end of the meditation we break the silence with a ring from the Tibetan medicine bowl or the Crystal pyramid and leave everyone to take a walk around the property and notice, really notice how many different shades of green you can find. Or you may grab another cup of tea and sit on the vortex and watch the birds playing in the sky.

We’ll do another guided meditation, or two, then break for a light lunch.

The biggest thing that comes out of this awakened meditation retreat is the ability to communicate with ourselves again and our higher selves on a very deep level, a level where no words are sufficient, where words in the human language only seem to tie us down to some perception of what is, versus what really is.  trying to define that which is indescribable.  That which is infinite.

By the time 4 pm rolls around on day 2, most everyone has usually settled into a meaningful peace. and talking that was initially so anticipated seems to come almost begrudgingly.

Yet, once the words start, everyone usually enjoys sharing what happened to them, through them throughout the day and I find the moment of discussion quite enlightening for myself and for all.

We really enjoy sharing this magical space in this way and would love to have you join us if you feel called.

 

What is Lucid Awakening?

We’ve moved away from a more classical approach to more guided meditations that open up the heart, the mind and the whole body for a deeper connection with our highest self.

We recreate a space where everything is taken care of for you and all you need to do is show up.

For me, direct awakening is about allowing the body, mind, and spirit to fully merge together to a level of consciousness that is usually only found in dreams.

And if you think about lucid dreaming and what magical abilities one has, lucid awakening is about allowing all of your infinite magic to continue and consciously appear while you’re awake.

Feeling more alive in every moment.

Being more present in every moment.

Feeling more connected to all that is.

And sometimes slowing down is just the way to do that!
