DETAILS :

The 'I' within the Storm

Finding Centre

Finding Stillness

Finding Self

Life can be such a whirlwind of hectic busyness, stress, worry, anxiety, responsibilities, expectations, joys and disappointments. All of this constant activity and ‘noise’ can be overwhelming, can unbalance us, confuse and distract us from what’s important to us, and spin us out and away from our centre and sense of self. 

Throughout this day retreat we will explore ways to find some calm and balance, and to re-centre. More than this, we will practice various ways to find a deeper sense of ourselves within this storm, using breath, vocal and instrumental sound. 

The Day will finish with a calming centring soundbath.
