During a Consultation |
"I was so fortunate to attend the One House of Peace silent meditation retreat at magical Piccalo Pastures. With Caverly's masterful guidance, I learned how to move through this world in an entirely different way. The weekend was a blend of nurturing all aspects of mind, body and soul, including delectable meals straight from the garden cooked with tender loving care by the owner. The experience was none other than transforming. By witnessing the purpose in every living thing that encompasses the farm environment, I was able to go inwards and discover my own purpose in life. I am filled with gratitude that this opportunity came my way and look forward to future retreats sponsored by One House!" - Teresa

Paulus is an enthusiast and celebrant of the behavior of art, of the power of artistic practice for personal and transpersonal healing. He has spent much of his adult life encouraging and inspiring others in workshops he has offered with clay, in poetry, doodling, journal making and keeping, stitching and movement from the perspective of deep ecology and in a meditative spirit. He is the author of a classic book "Finding Ones Way with Clay," and numerous articles. On this occasion, he will show and tell about the arts he practices and recite several poems that speak to our souls.

JULY RETREAT AT PICCOLO PASTURES
| | |
| This month's 'Just for Fun' video:
A sweet comment on solitude
We look forward to practicing with you soon.
In Peace,
Caverly and One House of Peace
Annunciation
Even if I don't see it again - nor ever feel it
I know it is - and that if for once it hailed me
It ever does -
And so it is myself I want to turn in that direction
Not as toward a place, but it was a tilting
Within myself
As one turns a mirror to flash the light to where
It isn't - I was blinded like that - and swam
In what shone at me
Only able to endure it by being no one and so
Specifically myself that I thought I'd die
From being loved like that.
~ Marie Howe

"The retreat was an extraordinary gift to myself. I was free from my responsibilities with Bud, my husband who has Alzheimer's, and free from any responsibilities from home. It gave me a chance to concentrate on me and what I want next in my life. It gave me a chance to examine what my values are and how I want to live my life. It was a preview of the peace, tranquility I crave and the yoga was the physical exercise my body craves. The meditation and discussions fed my soul and the food was the kind I want to eat from now on. In other words, I got a taste of what I want my life to be. I had a chance to live in my future." -Roberta
