How to keep good spirits and high energy in a very hectic life

A WEEKEND RETREAT led by two facilitators with complementary tools

February 16-18, 2018

La Soleilette, Bogève, Vallée Verte, France (40 min from Geneva)

 

Youre a busy woman or man with a full life. You enjoy your activities but occasionnally get overwhelmed by your obligations and the endless stream of messages
 from a culture that urges to do more, faster, better. Trying to keep up with the speed and expectations, your body starts aching, you might have lost motivation and trust in yourself or find it difficult to rest and sleep.

Time off doesnt always turn out to be as prosperous especially when we dont know how to efficiently tap into the resources of our body in a focused manner. You find the often suggested work outs painful or you are just too tired to do them.
 Your soul craves for an experience that is filled with intention, truth, and play, that leaves you enlivened rather than depleted.

You want to trust yourself more,
 want to find the answers inside, rather than outside. You want to feel the intuitive tug of your soul, but you sometimes question it when you do hear it, and think its irrational advice to trust.

Would you like to experience a week-end filled with joy and powerful intentions to feel more energized? Would you like to regain your self-confidence, learn how to turn inward and listen to yourself rather than the outside world? Would you like to reconnect to your intuition and learn to trust itto lead your life in a powerful autenthic way?

Come and join us to try new tools to feel better and learn how to integrate them into your daily life. The natural surroundings will help you relax and focus. weekend a bit different. No need to go far away. 40 minutes from Geneva in the countryside is a house that offers comfort, good food and space to enjoy.

Knowledge and the Meaning of Our Lives

I came across this inspiring text today:

Knowledge is an all pervasive energy. It was there, it is here, and it will continue to exist forever. Knowledge is independent, unbiased and impersonal. In other words, we don’t create knowledge, we discover it, we reveal it and we manifest it. History is full of examples of tremendously subtle and curious minds that, throughout the time, observed thoroughly their surroundings, both abstractly and tangibly, and have been able to reveal amazing knowledge that, nowadays, make our standards of living much, much higher than in the past in almost all fields of existence. Now, if we look if from an individual perspective, many of the ancient traditions of the world have extensively written and described about the majestic beauty of existence, the main challenges and advantages of each of the phases of life, the important values that lead to a purposeful and inspiring life, the horrifying traits that take us all the way to the bottom and, most importantly, the path that we ought to follow if we are fully determined in pursuing the evolution, the freedom and the complete manifestation of our souls innermost dreams. So, if all the knowledge about the self is available for us to get to know our own nature, why are we still living under the influence of limiting, segregating and selfish beliefs and behaviors?. This is exactly the quintessential question that triggers the person’s initiative to go out there aiming to find out the answers that will bring more awareness, more discernment and more meaning to his life. So, either if you are going through the suffering phase, or if you already got that spark of curiosity burning inside of you, equip yourself with determination, freedom and discipline to find out about the majestic beauty of your own nature so that you can live your life with more wisdom, love and abundance. (Tadany – 26 08 16)

 

Self-belief

Self-belief

When it comes to believes, there are plenty of options to choose from in the vast planetary market. They all have their promises, their dos and don’ts as well as their limitations. However, none of them is as powerful, as inspiring and as rewarding as the self-belief. A person who believes in herself usually has the inner key that opens up unlimited possibilities for development, growth, learning and maturing. Therefore, giving its magnificent benefits, instead of shopping around in the universal market of believes, it would be much more glorifying, reinforcing and ennobling to use one’s mind and time to improve the belief that one has on oneself. Self-belief is a continuous and endless process. Be self-diligent. (Tadany – 23 01 13)
