Here is what some people said when we asked them to please write something we could share on our web page that would give people a sense of what the retreat experience was like:
“I felt comfortable, respected, honored and loved. What I liked the most was the invitation to cast off all masks and postures … to be who I am. Thank you. ~ Marilyn, New Mexico
“I highly recommend this workshop as an important step towards understanding and preparing for death — your own and others!” K.L., Houston, Tx
“A truly beutiful experience of integrating life experiences into new knowledge with acceptance of conscious dying.”
“The workshop has provided tools to assist me in formalulating my future plans for myself and information to share with loved ones. This is an opportunity to say what I want, complete necessary documents to deal with the laws surrounding death, and have the confidence to do it my way.” ~Jeannette, Austin, Tx
“The facilitators were exquitely mindful, clear and loving. I learned a lot, AND I learned that I know a lot. The retreat fed me spiritually, mentally and physically. I am so grateful for this.”
“This workshop will help me and the people I touch approach death in a way that will fulfill life. In my spiritual path there are a few places on the wheetl where we give “a good death” to something or someone. I am even more empowered now to ritualize that in ways that will serve me and my community. Thank you!” ~ S.J., Austin, Tx
When asked what participants liked most about the retreat, people said:
“The open hearts and willingness to listen in myself and others. The bringing out and honoring of the Witness, and the safety of the experience. There was so much covered in this workshop and there are so many apsects and phases to death and dying and consciousness. I think the openeess in the way these vast experiences were touched upon was beautiful and brilliant.”
“Talking and listening to all these people about conscious living and dying! All the stories, and the practical information. Praise for allowing the sharing as part of the agenda.”
“The presentation was very clear, informative and not too formalized. I would not change anything. It was great. Of course, more time would be a blessing!”
