beginnings'. There are workshops on stress reduction,
body and sense work, exploring why we have made certain

FINDING OUR
CENTRE
In Times of Change
Friday,
April 27th until
Sunday
29th 2012
During this weekend retreat
at the beautiful Ville Davy, we will restore how to
cultivate true presence and integrate into the centre of
our lives our own potential and authentic response to
the challenges we are facing in our ever changing world.
Through the Pachamama Alliance’s powerful “Awakening
the Dreamer” Programme, and group
exercises/interaction, we will journey deep into the
possibilities for personal, collective growth/healing.
We will experience an intensive healing quantum light
breath meditation to release parts of us that are stuck
and constricted, and also be facilitated into a
conscious movement healing dance to strengthen our
centres and ignite all that we are as powerful creative
beings.
We will also feel the support of only eating light,
alkalising, nutrient dense foods during the weekend.
Cost £140 to include accommodation/facilitation and all
food during the weekend. Ferry price not included.
Earlybird price if booked by March 1st 2012. Those
coming from Jersey by ferry on Friday evening will be
picked up, taken to/and from La Ville Davy by car.
