Registration is open for the Nurturing Silence Retreat at Samish Island October 25-27, 2019. www.cwm.events/
Perhaps you’re interested because life seems too busy, and there is a part of you that simply longs to slow down, to “Be still, and know….”. Maybe there’s a part of you that yearns for a quieter, gentler way of being, but you’re not sure how to get there. Maybe you’ve already tasted the sweetness of silence and there’s a longing in you to go deeper, to listen to the whisper of Spirit. Maybe you’re curious about spending an entire weekend in silence in a spiritual community, but also a bit afraid of what you might find if you really took time to slow down and pay attention to your innermost thoughts and feelings. Maybe you just need to rest. Perhaps all the above, or none of the above. We all have our own reasons. Yet regardless of why you came, please know that “All is welcome here”: all your thoughts and doubts and tears, all of your love and joy and laughter, all of who you are, and all of who you are becoming. Your voice is welcome here, your unique voice that will emerge out of the silence. “Silence is not the absence of sound, but the presence of everything”. You are part of that sacred presence.
