| One of the greatest legacies
brought to Reiki by Denise was the opportunity
for Reiki students and volunteers to gather
together on retreat, to do their own work
so they can be of greater service to their
communities. This sense of community is
explored with John and Ellen in the presence
of nature in some of the most beautiful
places in the world; such as Land of Medicine
Buddha in the Redwoods in California, USA,
at Stoney Lake in northern Ontario, Canada
(in the fall) and Bicheno in Tasmania, Australia
(March),

An amazing opportunity to retreat and
surrender to the Silence of the giant redwoods
and the majesty of the cathedral-like canopy
of trees is truly a gift of the Soul. It
is seldom that an opportunity for such serenity
presents itself. This retreat is a gift
of Love and nurturing to the self.
We have an amazing and synchronistic opportunity
in 2012 at Land of Medicine Buddha. An extremely
rare occurrence of 3 powerful world events
coming together:
1. The Christian Festival of Easter, celebrating
the journey of the Christ and ourselves
through the death and rebirth of our spirit.
2. The celebration of the Jewish Passover
emphasizing our release from bondage (our
habits) and our journey to the Promised
Land (our freedom).
3. The Full Moon Festival of the Christ
at Easter, the first full moon of Spring.
This is the festival of the risen, living
Christ; the journey from darkness into light...
the path of Resurrection.
See the Santa
Barbara website for the retreat
in the Redwoods in California.

Bicheno,
Tasmania, Australia
Located in the south eastern corner of
Australia… this tiny seaside town
with its pristine beaches and rugged coastline
provides the ideal setting for a retreat.
For the past 6 years we have gathered in
the wonderful resort of Diamond Island.
With its first class accommodations and
idyllic setting has the added bonus of being
a rookery for the tiny fairy penguins. We
meditate under the stars and gather each
day overlooking the ever changing Tasman
Sea.
See the Australia
website for information on the
Bicheno retreat in Tasmania.

Gather with us on Stoney Lake to retreat
into the amazing colours of change. Fall
on the lake is an opportunity to pause and
to gather sustenance and to sow seeds of
the future that will bear fruit in the Spring,
a time to explore with a like-minded group,
the joy and humour of our spiritual journey,
embracing visions of a future filled with
abundance, fun and self-creativity.
Watch the Toronto
newsletter for information on
the fall retreat at Stoney Lake in Ontario.
