A feature of these retreats is that every participant entering this draw strength, necessarily encounters difficulties, internal resistance and the ability to work and give up.
Such an individual retreat - takes place in an atmosphere of complete transparency in front of him, so it does not allow to hide behind the crowd, does not allow a long time to go to unconscious behavior, because the clock is carried out in full view of the other party and the leader.

About what is happening at these retreats with participants, we can learn from their reports ...

The mood on the inner workings I was good and did not truthfully say that to give 100%. Yes, sometimes it was not easy at the level of the body to withstand the high intensity of meditation, back aching and aching feet. But I continued to work. Basically, my work was based on the consolidation of skills and best practices tracking units, bundles them with emotions and thoughts, and when it turned out that connect recapitulation and work with the mission. I found that hinders the process of immersion depth - is the fear of pain and live protection in the form of sleepiness, razfokusirovannosti. Now when I have these symptoms more keenly watching, trying to dispel the haze and go through this protection further. He worked with his childish way, explained that it is important to live a blocked feelings and gradually he began to open up and accept. In general I can say that I really began to dig his field and see that little by little it turns out!
    All the work went to study what happens in the mind at every moment. There were deep disembodied state, and also hard-tolerated physical resistance when every breath was perceived as a heavy step. While walking on the sea was amazing to watch two simultaneous states, pleasant and unpleasant, delighted with such beauty and cold wind and frost. A warm caring atmosphere sometimes reminiscent of Oasis as if we were in a sanatorium in the healing of our bodies!
    The first and second day of the inner workings do not communicate closeness trend emerged powerfully from the fear of going into the unknown, in the practices of directing attention to the breath and the body. Blurred believe in pain, brought with them all the baggage of states recognize that part of the escape from suffering, but the suffering came to me, over which only had to work. Felt intense heat in the body for a long time, his head was cast iron in the evening a nosebleed.

    On the second day was a walk by the sea is very cold I dressed without additional insulation, even with them all was, I did not realize that I need to do on a walk, the identification was deep and believable, the state has not changed, dullness, headache, and blood from the nose continued. After living senses, I turn on the breath. Piercing and poignant wind began to burn the sinuses. Thanks for the opportunity to stay a player of such experience, eyes fell on the rising sun, the joy has gone, I see the sacrifice which periodically obscures the eyes miss. This experience contributed to see that no matter who is close - all happening only in his head.

    A walk by the sea on the second day I prepared dressed warmly. Again, keep this experience I resisted because it is the mind that now loomed will be a repeat of yesterday, but when I got out of the car and approached the sea, I saw the sand is wet and then dry and the two halves of reminded me of the different manifestations of consciousness, the energy went tide strength and joy. I felt, and the presence here and now. I'm glad sunrise watching what is happening in the present moment, the walk was gorgeous, the sand that is wet as if he had impregnated the experience, and it will go more stable, and dry inexperienced and difficult to walk on it, and when I changed the band I felt that in the wet sand with experience better than no experience, it is easier to move forward as a sustainable wet sand. Sunrise showed brightness and flash of realization and when it comes, may be falling asleep or insight.

    I experienced the whole spectrum of feelings, I was given the opportunity to live not lived emotional experience, and fear of being alone representing different situations to gain experience. In my head there is a fear of betrayal and constantly turn the question what to do? Live and live feeling. I saw protection and the illusion of how I draw pictures that on day 3 realized that absolutely does not hurt the little finger on his left leg (I thought he did fall off with such pain), analyzing it before departure began unpleasant relationship with my husband and I going on injury on the left little finger, that pain even paralyzed movement when walking. Conscientiously held beliefs '' What I can not stand even a little finger '' any man. Low self-esteem in front of men. Reviewing my life I got to the situation of childhood relationships between the parents.

    The body was opened and meditation work continued, little toe was held and was not sick, I thought that as soon as I blame myself I going injury, when I saw it, I tried and I went to heat the body strong and knees to twist outwardly tracked down it is the fear of change. When I voiced my conviction were goose and the flow from the bottom up through the top of the energy was flowing, and slowly and pleasantly as if pazliki gather around the body into a single picture. Thanks to all experience that happened to me.

    In meditation flow in an infinite void at this retreat began realized how to move the energy in the body and that it is of interest to this practice, the units have to change the location and shape of the first month after breaching practices. During these three days, the unit came under the left upper quadrant or rather mild, not free to breathe freely manifest fear, sitting in honey sitting, I started to watch the pain and the track stretches where - since childhood Mom and Dad were engaged in a war. And now I need to make an effort to free expression itself. And as I said Ram '' external freedom '' has nothing to do with 'inner freedom' 'yes, I have to do with the free expression of a free man and feel. And even if I change a man, nothing will change - freedom within it.

    Pearl Thanks for organizing the retreat, she graced with his presence at the Oasis Awakening emanated from her knowledge, support and warmth is uplifting and mood to the inner workings. I feel love to the players who have helped throughout the retreat! Thanks Ohm it his calm and confident state helped to move as if it was all to be: long-term and sometimes unbearable. Thank you for Rama difficult but very interesting way!

     I am grateful that it has got 4 days retreat at a very doubted because of low self-esteem, imperfections and believing in the belief that nothing can. Retreat was an active program and reminded how to survive in extreme conditions. And I was set up for early ups and lengthy meditation on the third day the body was opened through the pain and snares in the coccyx, who said that the work will be very much. After practicing leg from knee to ankle to twist both in practice and in the intervals of rest, even in sleep. Fatigue was a pleasant, while relaxing sleep was sweet and helpful, even 30 minutes, which is helping to restore power.
