Sacred Earth Sacred Soul - Celtic Wisdom 3

Sacred Earth Sacred Soul - Celtic Wisdom 3

Each day begins and ends with meditative prayer and chant. John Philip teaches from the wisdom of Celtic prophets over the centuries, applying this ancient wisdom to the most critical challenges of today. Cami Twilling, Director of Earth & Soul, invites us into spiritual practice bringing our inner attention to the presence of the sacred within us and within all things. In the early afternoon there is silence and free time for resting and walking. Some meals are shared in common and on the evening of the second day there will be a reception to celebrate our time together. On the final morning before lunch, we share in a time of teaching followed by a closing ritual of thanksgiving.

The teachings of this retreat are based on John Philip’s award-winning book Sacred Earth Sacred Soul: Celtic Wisdom for Reawakening to What Our Souls Know and Healing the World (especially Chapters 5, 8, and 9 drawing on the wisdom of Alexander John Scott, George MacLeod, and Kenneth White).

The essential text for the three-year Celtic Wisdom program is John Philip Newell’s . The shared prayer book for this program is .

Celtic Wisdom 3 can be taken as a stand-alone retreat or in conjunction with Celtic Wisdom 1 and Celtic Wisdom 2 which can be attended in any order and at any of our retreat centers across the country or online.
