Dive into Tranquility of Oceanfront 5 Day Waves Retreat in November!
Staring at the ocean actually changes our brain waves’ frequency and puts us into a meditative state. Add that to the 5Rhythms practice which also puts us into a meditative state, 1 + 1 = ALOT.
Finding our effortless flow begins with letting go of our constant planning as well as the question "why am I the way I am." Then we'll embark on a journey of self-discovery through the waves map, moving toward self-compassion and forgiveness, eventually moving toward a sense of preparedness for the outer world, bridging the two worlds of inner and outer, as we emerge again into the world.
We will dance with the ocean just outside the floor to ceiling windows, other possible invitations include.
