Jenny Brooke has been running Silent Presence Retreats for many years now and you can obtain further details from Jenny by emailing jj.beloved@btinternet.com

Jenny says ‘Our March retreat will see the beginning of our 9^th year of Silent Presence retreats, and we’ll be returning to one of our favourite places, Goosefoot Barn in beautiful Corvedale.

In Silent Presence we aim to keep things really simple. No teachings as such. We share some of the breathing techniques we use in our lives and simple focusing to help us come into really being with our selves. Once we enter the silence we spend our time in a sitting and walking pattern, using these techniques.

Our emphasis is on creating a nurturing space which allows all who are participating the opportunity to really connect deeply with their own inner wisdom. To come into a place of Presence – being in the moment with every part of our being. In the stillness we can enter a profound place of inner wellbeing , where we experience our oneness with all. There is a powerful sense of connection with others in the group which goes beyond the normal ways we communicate with one another.

 Anne and I are passionate about this work which we feel really gives us that time and space we might otherwise not give to ourselves. This year we intend to expand our retreats to other areas. We offer weekend and five day retreats at present in Shropshire and North Wales.’
