The retreat is silent. The only time we were able to speak to our roommate was during the first few hours to talk about things such as who you are, where to place bath towels, shower routines, what brought you to the retreat etc.
The only people you are able to speak to during the 10 days are the female manager and the female instructor. You speak to the female manager if you are having roommate problems, need clean sheets and towels, or have any other living problem.
The female instructor leads the sits, vocal recordings, and question and answer sessions. At the end of the first day, you take an oath of silence.
This means no writing, no music, no speaking, no cell phones, no eye contact with other participants, and no gestures. The purpose of this is to really take in your own feelings without being influenced by the other people around you. The day begins at a. I had a lot of time to think, and honestly there were times I laughed, cried and questioned myself. What is one concept that you take with you every day from your retreat?
A concept that I take with me every day from the retreat is the concept that attachment and aversion are causes of suffering. When you become so attached to something and you realize that you cannot attain it, it causes suffering. Likewise, when you have an averse feeling towards something you are also feeling suffering.
The important thing is to be mindful of these feelings. I had such a fun time skyping with you! You are such a cool lady! Thanks for thinking of me, Nicole! I love experiments and personal projects. Finding new perspectives and breathing in new life into old boring scenes is what inspires and gets me excited!
If you call yourself a creative, proudly wear that title, be memorable, inspire others and always be ahead of the crowd! Leave a Comment. April 26, at am. Hey, I'm Nicole. I created Simply Nicole in in my college bedroom. So, this was a mix of POM juice, vodka, fresh lemon and fresh orange juice. It was actually a little strong for me, so I poured it into a different glass and added a bit more orange juice.
Perfect — the tart pomegranate and the sweet orange juice was a good combination of flavors. Oh — and just in case you were wondering, the Heart Health series will resume on Monday! It looks great though! Time for bed now! Thanks for the extra push! Your tofu looked like it turned out beautifully, but I liked your snack even better.
Lovely close-up shot…just look at that almond butter! Your Pomtini is so pretty, I think that is what I like about the juice, more than the flavor, is the color!
I'm Brandi, the cook behind the blog, and I'm so glad you're here! Feel free to poke around or say hi — I love hearing from you guys!
