 What to expect on a Lifeflow retreat
What happens in a typical day
on a Lifeflow retreat? A typical day begins with a guided meditation session in the hall (which you are free to attend or not as you feel). This is followed by breakfast and free time to go for a walk or just enjoy the beautiful natural landscape of Tara Hills and the surrounding countryside. Then there is a class where you can learn more about meditation and discuss your experience. After class there is morning tea, followed by a meditation session, a short break and then a stretch and breath session (stretching exercises similar to gentle yoga). Lunch is followed by a deep relaxation session and time for an afternoon rest (or a longer walk if you prefer to be outside at this time). Afternoon tea is then available and this is followed by the second class for the day. After class you have time to go for an evening walk, followed by a guided meditation session and dinner. Your day ends with an evening relaxation and meditation session. Keeping talking to a minimumTo ensure you gain the maximum benefit from your retreat experience, we have found it best to keep conversation to a minimum once the retreat is well underway. This gives everyone space and time to explore their own retreat experience. We allow plenty of time to settle in at the start of the retreat: the first dinner and breakfast allow an opportunity to chat with your fellow retreatants. After the first class on the second day, we ask everyone to keep to minimal talking until the last session of the retreat. The retreat concludes with a final lunch which provides the opportunity to socialise with your fellow retreatants. There are plenty of opportunities to discuss any questions you may have in the classes, and of course you can also talk to any of the teachers during the retreat. We ask too, for the comfort of all retreatants, that everyone maintain silence as much as possible in the accommodation building. Mobile phones Food The culinary skills of our chefs are consistently praised by all! Health Respecting the privacy of others Please call us prior to booking into a retreat If you have concerns about any of the points above, please call us to discuss prior to booking into a retreat. We have adopted these guidelines as we have found they help everyone to gain the maximum benefit from the time spent in retreat.
