Event description

1-Day Mindfulness Immersion | Hunter Valley

Lyrebird Retreat, is our off grid home. It is a beautiful mudbrick mansion, rustic and serene, set in lush forest for a deep meditative space. Where the Lyrebirds teach you mindfulness, and there is space to hear your own song.

WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE

• EDUCATION: Empowering insight into our profound Mind–Body–Intelligence and Energy Systems. The Scientific mechanics of our interconnected physiology and energy field.
• APPLICATION:
Guided Mindfulness and Meditation tools to experience the insight gained in Part 1. Learn how to objectively observe the mind chatter, to then make new choices how we interact with this voice.
• INTEGRATION:
Mindfulness and Meditation Techniques for integrating this knowledge into your daily life. We use exercises to feel and utilise the energy within us and around us in nature, using sound, breath and visualisation.
• ONLINE GUIDED MEDITATIONS
to continue your practice.

The Day Immersion will be taking our Mindfulness and Meditation into the deep understanding of our Mind–Body–Energy Systems. Understanding the power of your attention to attract your life experience.

You will learn and receive practices to feel the energy within you and this innate connection with nature using meditation, sound techniques and practical, energy regulating tools. We use guided meditations for emptying the body and mind including walking meditation, sound exercises, simple visualisations and breathing techniques. This is designed as a nature immersed, energy reboot.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

The benefits of Meditation and Mindfulness are measured and scientifically proven to regulate your body's homeostasis, that means, your body heals when you enter a state of calm. The more you practice staying in that state of calm the more your body self regulates, and the greater your level of awareness becomes to catch the minds tricks and tune into your intuitive wisdom! The inner critic and 'worrier' that takes up so much inner dialogue, is able able to be reprogrammed with practice and awareness.

Psycho/Physical Benefits of Mindfulness & Meditation are immediate:

• Lowers Blood Pressure and regulates brain chemical function

• Calmer breathing patterns

• Reduces Anxiety and Stress

• Activates the Parasympathetic Nervous System... i.e. Rest-Heal-Recovery Mode

• Heightened focus

• Greater Self Compassion

• Greater Energy

• Less reactive, less likely to take life situations personally

• Inspired and connected to your inner 'knowing'

• Better eating and sleeping patterns

PARTICIPANT REFLECTIONS

“The one day meditation retreat was just what my soul needed. It was a day of delving inside ourselves and exploring new concepts, and what came up from that personally was insightful, rewarding and at times surprising. Elisha is a very special human being, and her warmth, knowledge and approachability make her a fantastic teacher. Lyrebird retreat provides the perfect backdrop to explore these new concepts in the most rustic and beautiful bush environment.”
