CONTINUUM WILDERNESS DEPTHS RETREAT
SUSAN HARPER

This Continuum Wilderness Depths Retreat awaits those who love to inquire, who dare to listen at the edge and in the depths and who are aware of the adventure of courting the unknown. We move and engage perceptually in the surrounding wilderness and meet what is still wild and full of mystery within. 

Treat yourself to a luxurious time of moving, meditating,  musing, and dancing in a self-regulating process that is nourishing, organismically wise, and revelatory.

WHAT WILL WE DO?

In deep long movement dives, we slow down, and transform through gentle breathing, primordial vocalizing, and engage a multi-faceted movement range that may be both dynamic and tender. We explore the intelligent dynamics of the elements—water, air, fire, earth, and space—in our bodies; deepening our inherent connection to the wild breathing planetary body. We restore in spacious Silence.

We refine our ability to sense intrinsic movements and the fluid forces of creation to guide our healing and creative unfolding. With curiosity we feel sensation rich feelings, as we dare to love, weep, laugh, and meet the splendor and 'terrible beauty' that the river of life delivers.  

We move into alive, curious, engagement where the style and act of perceptive living becomes a creative art. 

JOURNEYING INWARD: This retreat includes a "soul quest" time where we are in collective silence for two and half days. As we deepen, each of us awakens our unique mystery-opening capacities. The fecundity of our spontaneous personal discoveries, our co-creating with each other, and with the cosmic planetary unfolding expands our minds and opens our hearts. As we plumb the depths together, out worn skins shed, healing happens, and we emerge with a deepened and heightened sense of creativity and love.

THE SETTING: Buckhorn Springs Retreat Center offers a beautiful hand-crafted meeting room, garden grown meals, and mineral springs in a stream that runs through acres of forests and meadows. This is an ideal indoor and wilderness setting for a Continuum Wilderness Depths Retreat. Ours is the only event happening at Buckhorn.
