Hi guys,
Next Summer, I will be running two retreats on Dartmoor National Park in South West England.
The first will be at the High Heathercombe Retreat Centre in June, and the second will be at the end of September, at the Bala Brook Retreat Centre.
High Heathercombe is a retreat centre that we have not used before for AYP retreats, and is high up on the moor, surrounded by forests. Bala Brook is the centre that we have held retreats at several times over the past few years, located in one of the valleys on the moor.
For anyone wanting to join from overseas, the nearest international airport is Exeter, which is about 40 minutes away from both centres.

I'm just waiting for my train to London, what a lovely retreat! 
So many great people, so much fun and a lot of energy!
The nature is just awesome! One day we went for a walk into the moor and walked by wild horses. The retreat was very well organized and the food was excellent (cudos to Sally!).
It was my first retreat and I never did a silent period before. To be honest, I was a bit afraid of it, but it was really good! I also was a bit afraid of overloading and kundalini issues, nothing bad happened for me, but if it were the case I definitely would have been in very good hands!
The best thing was on sunday: so much bliss and energy in the room and among people.  There was a bit chanting as well and the 16 OMs on Sunday really rocked the room!
For me the retreat really deepened my practice, a great possibility to exchange with people and ask questions.
Thanks to everyone who attended, especially Christi for the great organization and leading through the retreat! |

Hi Aguacate,
There will be 13 or 14 of us on the retreat at the end of next month, including myself and Alex who will be leading the retreat with me. Alex is one of the TTC teachers.
Sally will be doing the cooking.
Looking forward to practicing together again. 
Christi

@Christi yeah, looking forward as well! Was curious if some known faces form the forums will join. We'll see!
Friday and Saturday is still Navrati / Durga Puja, so there should be even more good energy :) |
