The Bay Area, California, USA
October 2nd - 9th, 2024
You're invited to join Louise Kay in The Bay Area, California, USA for a 7 day Embodied Awareness meditation retreat.
|
This retreat is an opportunity to spend 7 days deepening into the stillness of the present moment.
Embodied Awareness is a practice which supports the direct recognition of one's True nature, as well as the integration of unprocessed energies and emotions held in the body. This practice allows one to live fully in presence and to become a vessel through which higher consciousness can flow freely, bringing joy to every aspect of life. Alongside like-minded community you will be supported to surrender fully into the now, dis-identify from the conceptual self and open up to your True nature, pure consciousness, to discover a deep, lasting peace and love. Whatever emotions or sensations arise in the body will be met with unconditional love under Louise's gentle guidance, allowing for deep healing and transformation to take place on the level of form. Meetings will consist of guided meditations followed by Q&A sessions and silent meditations. All participants will receive downloadable video recordings of the guided meditations and group sessions. |
"When we recognise our true nature, a process of deep inner healing begins to take place. We are able to see unconscious patterns playing out, and limiting beliefs and destructive behaviours naturally begin to fall away as we align with a higher consciousness." - Louise Kay
