Meditation and Spiritual Retreats

Meditation

Through meditation you increase your ability to access the spiritual realm both of the soul and of the Creator. This process is cumulative and leads to a quantum change in understanding and consciousness. Most meditation techniques have one thing in common: they calm the mind. Like a good spring cleaning, they get rid of habitual clutter while restoring a harmonious vibration to all the bodies.

Some meditation practices engage the body in the spiritual journey in order to create a strong physical vessel to house the soul. Examples of this practice are Tai Chi and Chi Gong. These more active kinds of meditations might be helpful either if you have difficulty sitting still or if you need to re-establish your connection to the earth under your feet and the energy moving through your body.
