Joy of BeingJoy of Being - 15-17 Oct - only two places left
Riding the Surfboard of Life - 12-14 Nov
Meditation is not about just sitting still! Life is full of changes and meditation is a powerful tool for riding these changes skilfully. A time of change or transition is the time when you can make clear decisions about what direction you wish to take... meditation acts as the surfboard to rest on so that you can catch the moment of change.
  
Take some time to rejuvenate
Retreats are wonderful opportunity to get some space for yourself, and get some perspective on what's been happening in your life. Enjoy a break from normal pressures, relax deeply, and return home with your outlook refreshed. In all retreats you will learn a range short 'spot' and longer meditations, and be guided through deep relaxations and gentle yoga. The food is wonderful too!

Kurlana retreatMembers retreat at Kurlana - Oct long weekend
Stages of the Path, part 2
At the two Kurlana retreats this year (Easter and the October long weekend), we are investigating a particularly useful system for understanding what is likely to unfold as your meditation deepens. This system comes from the tradition of Tantra, and outlines the different levels and stages experienced along the whole path of meditation; from developing the skill of meditative concentration, through to a stage of "no more meditation". This retreat will provide you with a valuable framework to help you better understand your own meditation experiences, and to further develop your practice.
 
Retreat starts with lunch at 1 pm on Saturday 2 October
Retreat finishes after lunch on Monday 4 October

Cutting through appearancesTantra Meditation at Tara Hills
Cutting through appearances
This meditation allows you to tap a fiery quality of direct awareness - learning not to be fooled or dulled into believing appearances, or that situations are unchangeable. Sometimes in life you need to tap the power of your gut, instinctual energies to cut through and see clearly. This meditation is for training yourself to do this skilfully.
 
Everyone is welcome to stay for a share lunch after the meditation session. Please call Lifeflow if you would like any further information.

Summer 10-day retreat at Tara HillsSummer 10-day retreat
Not sleeping... dreaming
For many people dreaming is an important link to a rich inner world. Dreams provide a bridge to the core of the mind's creativity and a way of understanding ourselves at a deeper level.  This retreat will allow the time to bring awareness to the dreaming process, and present a structure to interpret the language of dreams. We will focus on the study and practice of 'Dream Yoga'. This is one of the Six Yogas of Naropa, a set of traditional meditation practices.  Dream Yoga develops the skill of bringing  awareness to the intermediate state between deep sleep and wakefulness.

Starts 2pm Tues 28 Dec 2010
Ends 2pm Thurs 6 Jan 2011
