Experience the Adirondacks this Summer!
Radiant Wisdom: Summer Retreat for Women at Great Camp Sagamore
with Anne Dellenbaugh and Suzanne Lynch
August 10-12, 2012
Midlife is an invitation to create a deeper balance in your life – physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually, to take time for yourself, to attune to your own and to Nature’s rhythms, and to clear away old patterns that obstruct the free flow of energy (prana) through your whole body-mind. And, midlife begins at different times for different women. Women of all ages are welcome at this retreat.
Let’s be really clear: Menopause is not the end of a woman’s fruitful, juicy, creative time of life. It might even be just the beginning!! And often, menopause brings the biggest transformation of a woman’s life. This is the time when a woman comes into her wisdom, when her true inner beauty shines radiantly forth, and when she brings her greatest gifts to the world!! … And to herself!! But to do this we need to pay attention to ourselves; we need to re-examine everything about how we’re living. This retreat is intended to be a time to examine your life with love, compassion, and great care.
Give yourself the gift of this weekend retreat (truly a mini-vacation!) to slow down, to spend time with yourself both in solitude, and in community, to discover what it is that makes you happy; what is deep in your heart. Learn how to take care of yourself so you can live into this new, wise, and balanced, radiantly alive Self.
You’ll leave with a set of tools that will serve you for the rest of your life!
- a simply and effective set of hatha yoga postures for balancing energy flow
- a simple and powerful set of breathing practices (pranayama) for balancing hormones and clearing energetic blockages
- a basic understanding of your Ayurvedic constitution and how to apply this ancient healing wisdom in your daily life
- a set of beautifully simple tools for attuning to your Self and connecting to cosmic intelligence (meditation and more)
- a design of your own making for the next step in coming deeper into your own exquisite Self.
Our time together includes community time for yoga, meditation, learning about Ayurveda (Yoga’s beautiful 5,000-year old Sister Science of wellness/health care) and creating a personal design for taking it all home. This is an important focus of this retreat, and Anne and Suzanne will help you create a plan the meets your individual constitution and situation.
Great Camp Sagamore, a National Historic Site, is a beautiful retreat setting with very comfortable accomadations. There are hiking trails, boating, swimming, and spectacular views right outside our doors.
