Conscious ageing in Forest Dweller stage of life

Atma Darshan, Western Creek, Tasmania

17th-19th September

A weekend retreat for those who are in the third stage of life – the phase known in ancient yogic philosophy as Vanaprastha or Forest Dweller.  This is a time when a person retires to the forest and gradually gives up worldly life and focuses on their inner, spiritual world. Of course, for those of us living in modern times, it is not feasible or desirable to fully retire from life.  This workshop supports you to balance your inner needs with worldly commitments.

Heartfelt thanks for a most wonderful workshop. It gave me confirmation of my feelings over the past couple of years and even though I was quietly following my instincts it was quite affirming to know that this process is recognised by the ancients as a beautiful and natural part of life. You articulated the teachings very well and carefully acknowledged the problems faced by many of having to fulfill responsibilities of paid or unpaid work.

Your capacity to bring theory, ancient wisdom and practicality for our current times……..always admirable and inspirational. The practices of meditation and yoga nidra, truly provided a supportive and guided way for us to get in touch with inner selves.  The practices recommended for this stage of yoga nidra, pranayama and meditation gave tangible and realistic ways to support oneself through this stage. These 3 provide a great foundation of practice to implement and harness.
