The Traveller There is the traveller of the outer world, then there’s the traveller of the inner world.

Then there’s bringing the two together!

"Travelling is to the mind, what love is to the heart and education is to life…truly enriching." Anonymous.

Imagine ten days in a pilgrimage town in India, living with villagers, immersing in the town, doing what they do, enjoying the rich heart centred and wise practices until you almost dissolve back into consciousness?

It is June, and still, the fantastic ladies that came away to India this year, are holding an incredible asana in the world, meaning, containing the spiritual energy and not being knocked off by the difficulties of the outer world.

Now if you are going to travel to such an incredible place as India, wouldn’t you want to be part of India? Wouldn’t you love to be such an adventurer, an explorer that you would want to go into the country and away from the tourists? To connect with an energy there that is like nothing else on earth? To go through what can take years to go through, and end up closer to your true self?

There is an inner mystic in all of us. We sometimes need it awakened, encouraged, nourished to come out. I’ve had the joy of getting to know some great ladies, many having become friends. Helen has been on two of my retreats! I’ve watched this lady grow and transform spiritually in such an organic and vibrant way.

Helen has become a spiritual adventurer, and she had no idea what was in store for her but knew by the feeling of it, it was going to be worthwhile. On retreat, this gorgeous corporate CPA was having extraordinary inner experiences and had the biggest smile that whole retreat. I caught up with her recently, and she still has that same smile.

When we follow the call to step outside our known world and travel to a different culture, particularly one that is spiritual first, world second, we thrive in ways we can’t understand beforehand.

Come away with my new partner and me in Divine Immersion Retreats, Julia Renaud. Jules and I have known each other since being at boarding school together! Then we both joined an ashram and studied and participated there for over 20 years.

We have been to India multiple times and know the town and people of Ganeshpuri very well. We know what you will go through, what you need while you are there and how to help support you find your unique relationship to you, your spirit and a new relationship with consciousness.

"A nation’s culture resides in the hearts and soul of its people." – Mahatma Gandhi.

Our next retreat is on the 27th of January 2019 for ten days! There’s heaps of time to get organised.

We are calling it the ‘Spiritual Empowerment Retreat’ and spiritually delving into our relationships with ‘Love, Money and Purpose’.

"Deep down within the heart there is a stillness which is healing, a trust in the universal laws which is unwavering, and a strength which is rock-like. But because it is so deep, we need both patience and perseverance when digging for it." Paul Brunton.

Hari Om!
