Guidelines:
This is a silent retreat. Communication during the retreat will be limited between participants. A silent retreat is a structured period where participants refrain from speaking and minimize external distractions to cultivate inner peace and reflection. The silence is to create a serene environment where you can disconnect from external distractions and focus on your inner self. By embracing silence, attendees can experience profound insights, personal growth, and a renewed connection with themselves and their spirituality to enhance reflection and spiritual growth.
It's completely normal to have concerns about attending a silent retreat, especially if it's your first experience. Here are some common concerns and how they’re addressed:
Fear of Silence: Many worry about the prolonged silence, but past participants often find it deeply calming and insightful. Silence helps you disconnect from external noise and focus on inner growth.
Feeling Isolated: While communication is limited, you are surrounded by a supportive community on a similar journey. This shared experience fosters a sense of connection and understanding.
Boredom: Structured sessions and activities ensure that your time is engaging and purposeful. The variety of spiritual and therapeutic exercises will keep the experience enriching.
Emotional Discomfort: Silence can bring up emotions that are usually drowned out by daily life. This is an opportunity for healing, supported by licensed therapists who provide guidance and techniques to process these feelings.
Practical Concerns: Worried about logistics? Rest assured that lunch and all materials are provided, making the experience seamless and comfortable.
Embracing the silence can lead to profound personal insights and a deeper connection with God and yourself.
