Workshops and Retreats
Throughout the year we run a range of workshops and retreats. These provide valuable opportunities for you to deepen your understanding of Gathering Essence Meditation.
As well as being for people who attend our classes they are also suitable for people with other meditative experience. They are designed for the serious practitioner to support their practice towards a high level of realisation. They facilitate a conscious move into, and an understanding of, the Quintessential universal field and its relationship to body-mind. For more information about these events please get in touch.

Weekend Workshops
Weekend Workshops
Take the time to deepen your experience and understanding of the inherent forces and observe how the egoic mind shapes and controls the available Qi in a habituated way. Learn how you can rediscover your essence (true nature) by softening these conditioned forces and returning to Source. Working over two days with a powerful and nourishing combination of sitting and standing meditation, opening movement and clear intent.
10:00am - 5:00pm with Tez Sawicki

Residential Retreats
Every year we run two 7 day residential retreats which are held in a beautiful sea front location in the East Neuk of Fife. These weeks will explore the process of effectively accesing YI SHEN TAIJI WUJI and deepen into tasting, defining and understanding WU WEI (effortless presence). Combined with this we'll be looking at how to allow the expression of these inherent forces through the Bodymind and our relational forces. This marks a profound shift into becoming an integrated and evolving human being rather than a fixated human doing! For more information and a brochure please get in touch, there are some funds available to support people who need financial assistance to attend these retreats.
