The Yoga of Sleep for profound presence
and personal healing – Residential Retreat
Dates: 20th – 22nd September 2024
Join Caron who offers 20 years experience as a Master/Teacher of Reiki and Practitioner / Teacher of Buddhism. Caron will share her knowledge, understanding and profound awareness of these practices and take you on an intriguing journey through the Bardo of Sleep and Dreaming. You will not be disappointed as rich learning and profound insight is shared.
Sleep yoga practice has been part of Caron’s journey since 2018 enabling the utilisation of 24 hours a day for healing opportunities. This sustained practice and compassionate motivation provided the conditions leading to profound emptiness of the clear light of sleep and of the day from 2019. Learn how to use your waking day well to maximise the deep healing opportunity of the night. We will explore the yoga of dreams and learn to use the full potential of a day and night cycle to awaken to the nature of reality.
Nestled amongst the trees in Healesville, Maitripa reflects a simple yet homely feel. A place to retreat, restore, and reconnect to the beauty of inner silence and connection through the wonders of nature.
This retreat is suitable for anyone interested in deep healing, letting go of daily stress and deep relaxation. All that’s needed is an interest in the healing and restorative abilities that sleep offers.
