Yet another year, another week just gone had an amazing experience while running a Yoga retreat on Silver Island.
During the week on this little private paradise, you have plenty of time to do Yoga, to enjoy yourself and your time with others, to ponder and think clearly, to play with water, to walk or run around the island, to read a book on a hammock or on the beach, to be creative with nature as well as art material.
While you’re there, the natural response of the mind is to let go…to let go of tension, anger, frustration, disappointment and any negative feeling or even behaviour you usually have. Negativity in our emotions and behaviour is the fight mechanism of our natural instinct to survive and to win the battles in our every day lives. Surrender to the beauty and magic of nature and be in contact with her, is the most effective way to get rid of all this behaviour and reveal your true, compassionate, positive and loving being you really are.
As little time as only a week is enough to have a sense of this spaciousness in your mind and your heart.
” Let there be spaces in your togetherness; And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love. Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together, yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.” Kahlil Gibran
