Eat,
Pray, Local...
Contemplative
Yoga and Kayaking on the Dan River
Does
your spiritual practice include your body and its resonance with the
world of nature? Are you longing to engage more deeply in the
environment you inhabit, but feel too busy much of the time? Have
you wanted to get out into our local mountains and rivers, but don't
know where to go?
In
this day long retreat into nature, we will give ourselves permission
to take our time, gradually slowing down enough to come to a place of
deep listening. The day begins at Moore's Springs Camp with a
gentle yoga practice designed to prepare our ears for listening, our
eyes for seeing and our bodies for kayaking. Afterward, we savor
nutritious juices prepared with love by our local foodie Debra Edds.
The kayak trip down the river in the afternoon will be a 2-3 hour
sensory awareness practice, much of it experienced in silence. At
the end of the day we return to camp, recover with a short yoga
practice, and enjoy a vegetarian feast and celebration around a fire.
