Directed Silent Retreat (DSR)
At times our life can be full of clutter and chaos as we race through our day, sometimes we are unaware of our ‘drooping spirit, tired minds and bodies. It is important to feed and care for your spirit the same way as you would exercise and care for your body, therefore Life, Work, Balances is what you require, that is why you need to take responsibility for Life, Work Balances and MAKE time!
The Indian Jesuit Anthony de Mello said 'we keep silent not to stop talking but to open our ears'! To be silent these days is not the easiest thing - there's always an ipod, iphone, laptop, radio, billboard and a million thoughts and preoccupations to distract us!
The 3 day Directed Silent Retreat which takes place on weekends ( see dates below ) seek to lull you into a silent space, where you can meet yourself and your God 'be still and know.....you will have the option to meet with a trained spiritual guide daily so you can chat then!!
Go on, take the plunge and trust the God of surprises!
