Making Space for Listening Within

A Day Apart – Saturday April 27, 2024

A Space for Listening Within

Please join us for a day away from daily distractions. This will be a supportive and regenerative space where you can slow down, take time to rest, and listen to the subtleties that we all miss in this fast-paced world.

Come listen to the wisdom found in your own body, soul, and in nature through time-tested practices that help foster this connection. Connecting with ourselves in this way allows deep wisdom to come through, revealing answers to questions we may not have even asked yet. This will be a time to unwind, untie the knots caused simply by existing, and begin to hear your deeper self. It’s a chance to forge a new relationship with the most important person in your world…. You.

Tai Chi & Qigong – presented by Christine Schmidt. Christine has always been drawn to the relationship between our mind and body. The gently flowing movements and coordinated breath of Tai Chi and Qigong give purpose to our body, and bring ease to our mind.

Guided Meditative Drum Journey – presented by Jenn Evans. To Jenn, the sound of a drum is the shared heartbeat connecting all things. Listening to drumming works magic in our brains. It synchronizes the logical left hemisphere, the creative right hemisphere, the non-verbal areas, and the frontal cortex (language & reasoning). This integration produces feelings of relaxation, insight and certainty.

Himalayan singing bowl sound bath – presented by Lynne Pulizzi. Lynne’s unique ability to seamlessly blend the sounds of the bowls takes the listener into a deep state of relaxation and tranquility, enabling a higher state of awareness.

Mindful movement and dance – presented by Korrine Rothrock, Korrine’s lifelong interest in the subtle exchange between humans and the natural world helps her deliver skillfully guided free-form movement and true dance workouts which support us in remembering our innate intuitive abilities.

Dress for comfort and movement. Bring whatever you need (blankets, pillows, mats, camp chair) to be comfortable lying on the floor or sitting for extended periods (for meditative drum journey and sound bath).

There will be some yoga mats, bolsters, and blankets available, as well as chairs.

If weather allows, Tai Chi and Qigong may be done outside.

Bring a notebook or journal to capture any insights. There will be free time built into the day for introspection and integration. You’re welcome to find a private nook on the Harmony Woods property, or spend part of that time at the nearby James T. Slavin Conservation Area to take in the serenity of its 600+ acres of wetlands, meadows, and forests.

Please bring your own water bottle, lunch, and snacks. There will be full kitchen access with a fridge, stove, microwave, dishes, and utensils available for use.

There will also be a coffee and tea station available all day.
