Reset the Rhythm

~ A Retreat ~

with Reverend Julie Interrante and Jeff Anderson, RScP

 ~ Rediscover what already is... ~

Slow the pace. Feel the feelings.

Dream the dreams. Reset the rhythm.

Join Julie and Jeff for an experiential weekend of reconnecting and reawakening to the pulse, cycles, and rhythms of life that are as natural to our existence as the seasons, our breath and the beat of our hearts.

Life need not be efforted into submission.

Joy and awe and wonder are not just bite-sized vacation moments.

Happiness is not something that must be created, or acquired.

Love is not in short supply.

And peace is not just a world issue – it’s a personal one.

Within the natural rhythm and flow of life, there is quite enough …

RESET THE RHYTHM, a Retreat

The goal of this retreat is to create a space for letting go of the busy-ness in our minds and bodies in order to reconnect with the more subtle, underlying, organic thoughts, feelings, rhythms and cycles that are an inherent part of our nature.

With this in mind, we have been very mindful of the pace of this retreat. We want things to move easily and gently, with plenty of space, time to breathe and time to just be.

Friday

You can arrive and check in between 3 and 5 pm, set down your bags as you begin to breathe and unwind. St. Dorothea’s Rest is in a lovely setting in west Sonoma County with lots of trees and space and quiet.

We will meet briefly before dinner for welcome and introductions.

After dinner we will gather for our first experience of opening our hearts to the rhythm of our own souls. There will be time to get acquainted at the level of the heart. After a closing meditation, you will be free to enjoy a restful night’s sleep.

Saturday

The morning will start with morning yoga and mediation (participation optional) followed by breakfast. The focus of Saturday’s time together will be identifying and trusting the natural cycle of life. We will use group exercises as well as dyad sharing and solitude to assist all of us in gently moving into resetting our internal and external rhythm.

Julie and Jeff will facilitate group interaction and sharing and will also be available for individual support if you desire.

Interspersed throughout our time together will be free time for integrating our group and individual experience. We will also be concentrating on the act of receiving as a spiritual practice for a deeper and more personal experience of life.

Sunday

After yoga and breakfast we will gather for group interaction in learning how to take the experience of resetting the rhythm home with us. There will be time for sharing your experience of the weekend and what you want to take home with you. We will have lunch together and then gather for a closing ritual and saying goodbye.

Jeff and Julie are very happy to be sharing this weekend with you as we explore together resetting the rhythm. We’re really looking forward to seeing you!
