Soul Friend Retreats

	Soul Friend Retreats is a small peaceful one to one retreat on the edge of the market town of Axminster, Devon. Situated close to Dorset's World Heritage Coast. Hills and wonderful walks. Non-smoking. Organic / vegetarian / fish and special diets. Qigong, meditation training and qualified holistic therapies.

	Near to my heart is my present work with those coming on workshops or for quiet restorative retreats at my home in Devon. Throughout the week or days present here, we will see an unfolding and repairing taking place on different levels as we relax and have prime time together for this purpose. The days will be structured around you, including good walks, visits to the coast a few miles away and relaxing time out at home. You can join me for pre breakfast Meditation, morning yoga, and essential breath-work to release toxins and stuck energy that inhibits daily achievement at whatever level, opening doorways to the inner Self, bringing a deeper awareness of being present for ourselves and therefore others. Learning to work with meditation, mantras, yoga and qigong, conversation, and some silence, the more mundane tasks of every day will become a moving meditation in themselves, holding at bay the distraction of the everyday busy mind. This disciplines the body and sharpens the mind down to breaking new ground in our lives! Breathing differently, Pranayama, using 'Light' energy, Prana, suffuses the cellular system and strengthens the immune response, bringing us 'Alive', empowering us to face new obstacles and break new ground in our lives. Introducing self heal techniques and a greater awareness of the subtle energies around and within the body through the ancient art of dowsing with rods and pendulums, in and out of doors. My home is run as a small, very comfortable Retreat for those wishing any of the above or just to be in a nurturing space without any particular agenda. I am a qualified and experienced chef truly enjoying the cooking and preparation of all kinds of organic foods, a lot of which I grow myself. I prefer to cook fish and vegetarian food, and cater for all dietary requirements. There are good places to eat in the vicinity also and the Jurassic coast is a short drive. I recommend you bring good walking shoes, Wellingtons and sea bathing towels unless travelling by train. Geraldine Sherborne
