Take some time out to rest, reflect and refocus
Are you looking for some time out to rest, reflect and refocus? This quiet day is an opportunity to step out of the everyday patterns of life and to take some time to consider some of the aspects of life that often fall aside when we are busy. Who are we now? Who are we becoming? What are hopes and desires for the future?
The day will consist of three sessions. At the start of each session, we will come together as a group and then you will have the opportunity to spend time on your own, reflecting on a topic or prompt provided by your host.
All materials, drinks, tea, coffee, morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea are included. Gluten and dairy-free food options are available on request.
Your retreat leader will be Alison Tye. Alison is a spiritual director who has run retreats for many years.
The cost for attending the day retreat is $80, however please do not let cost be a barrier to your attendance. Please make contact with us if cost is an issue.
Onsite accommodation is also available if you are travelling from out of Mackay (please visit https://airbnb.com.au/h/awakenlodge to check availability and to book).
