The Biggest Trends in retreat hotel kl We've Seen This Year

[Garrigan Crista]

After spending five weeks in South America, I wanted to come home and have a relaxing escape in Kuala Lumpur. I was planning to use the Kuala Lumpur to break free from it all. The atmosphere of the region and the accommodations were perfect for me. Here are some observations I made while enjoying my second retreat in Klatchit:

* Outdoor activities included hiking and rappelling. The road on the south side went on to River and provided breathtaking views of the mountain tops. I met up with some wonderful people on the way and enjoyed the outdoor team-building exercises that took place throughout the day. I also learned about the importance of environmental abilities through a morning eco-tea.

* The retreat center offers Wi-Fi Internet access for its guests. My notebook left my head in a fog after the airport and walking to the river's edge. On the second day, following a strenuous hike, I was able to quickly download a PowerPoint presentation onto my laptop so that I could view it through a rest period. Having Wi-Fi eliminated this problem.

* I met up with a wonderful partner in Rest Pause and enjoyed a delicious dinner before retiring at night. During the course of this evening, a thunderstorm rolled in and left everyone worried about lightning safety. Fortunately, our team-building instructor had installed a lightning protection system for our retreat. Fortunately, it worked! A storm later that night brought some rain, but the team-building teacher made sure we had water available for our escape. It was a great lesson about preparing for unexpected events.

* At our escape, I met up with a very important person. After I mentioned my desire to become Klatchit Copper Master, a woman with much experience building green houses invited me to meet her son-in-law. My meeting with this man and his wife changed my view of"house," in a positive way. They had sold their home three years prior and were living in a beautiful garden with chickens and goats. Their hoe-mill was still operational and they were living the simple life.

* My first week retreat Click for source at Klatchit was a very encouraging experience. Many of us went for the brief ride on a hot summer day. Our group rented four bikes, three for us, one for our driver and you to bring food back and forth. It was a fun experience for me, since I'm such a gardener in mind. The sunlight and atmosphere really inspired me.

* Our second week retreat was a week of extreme fasting. We did not eat good food, but only took liquids, such as tea and water. During the week, many members of the group united in daily meditation practices to prepare themselves for the next week of their escape in Rest Pause

* Our third and last week retreat was wonderful. Lots of people came for the spiritual experience. As retreat attendees, we shaped covenants and commitments to take care of the environment, protect our fellow beings, and follow the instructions of our guru. Many of us gave to and received from other people. It was a beautiful retreat, filled with love, beauty, and gratitude.

* I won't ever forget what my guru, Bhaktapushpa, said after our retreat,"Your effort to maintain harmony with yourself is the key to harmony with other people. They will respect you and your individuality, if you show yourself to be in harmony with yourselves." He made this comment several times over the years, but it always stuck in my head.

* I can't tell you how many people I met during my week in there. Our escape was in the beautiful Mayberries of Oregon. Each of us met many new friends. We gave many fundraising drives to support our neighborhood, gave many amazing contributions to our various needy groups, and raised much money raising presents.

* My favorite part of our escape was the incredible friendships that grew between people who were strangers to each other for several years. Our spiritual journeys have brought so many people into our life. Some have become friends by being assigned as our closest friends in the community. Others have reached out to us over the years by sending flowers, gifts, and gifts of gratitude as we carry out the work of our Lord. Our neighborhood has helped so many in so many ways over the past year and a half.
