BREEMA® RETREAT
"The Heart Opens in The Moment"
June 27-29
with Laura Rawson from the Breema Center
& Dave Pratt from True Nature
Yes - after a long hiatus, our annual Breema Retreat is back! This will officially be our 10th Breema Retreat weekend at True Nature, and we are so happy to offer this rich, heart-opening experience. Laura and Dave have taught together many times and always appreciate the opportunity to explore Breema's principles and common-sense wisdom throughout classes.
For those new to this holistic system, BREEMA® is a living expression of the unifying principle of Existence. It is based on nine universal principles that help us live a more meaningful life, and thankfully it's simple. Breema bodywork, Self-Breema exercises, and Breema’s practical philosophy are the tools we use to unify body, mind, and feelings, and become familiar with the taste of being present.
This practice offers us a new education that presents the possibility of having moments of being present in our day, in order to live a more harmonious life and move in the direction of Self-understanding. The atmosphere of a Breema Retreat, supported by the principles of No Judgment and Mutual Support, is deeply nourishing and revitalizing!
Our emphasis is on exploring and gaining first-hand experience of the Nine Principles of Harmony, which can be applied in any activity or situation. Through the Nine Principles, we can discover a receptive mind, supportive feelings, and a more vital body.
In this Retreat/Workshop you will:
Learn multiple Breema bodywork sequences which relax and energize the whole body.
Practice Self-Breema movement sequences.
Experience the harmonizing effects of the nine Breema principles, including working with your own body's comfort, non-judgment, firmness and gentleness, mutual support, full participation and single moment / single activity.
