CREATE A SPACE FOR YOURSELF
A Dedicated Space:
We highly recommend you participate in a quiet, dedicated place in your home, with your door closed if you live with others.
Refraining from Distractions:
You can receive the maximum benefits from this work by minimizing communication with others and refraining from news and entertainment. Try to structure your retreat day with simplicity—put an away message on your email, save your snail mail for later, prepare the simplest meals you can in advance.
Requesting support from people you live with:
If you are living with someone, lovingly request they give you space, especially during the session hours, but even, during the breaks.
Here are some phrases to make that request: “Would you be willing to………. …? Then “This is what it would mean to me:…………..” Then “Thank you so much. You are such a support to me, I notice I feel so much gratitude.”
We are aware that this will be especially challenging for parents, and we understand you can only do your best.
Set Your Intention:
Having an intention can be a really important step in your process It gives your focus some direction and is like placing a stake in the ground that is a marker for claiming something that you want.
Also, as you fill out the questionnaire, take some time to consider what brought you to this workshop. What do you hope to let go of? What do you hope to receive? What might be a miracle for you?
