INtegration
This is very deep transformational work. Your ability to implement all the teachings, the experiences, the processes and your shiny new intentions, requires adequate time to rest, deep regenerative sleep and adequate time to integrate. The quality of your sleep significantly effects your capacity to remember.
The quarterly retreats now finish mid afternoon on Saturdays to provide a quiet day or two afterwards to continue integrating and reduce your travel stress. You are welcome to rest at CWays if you need to catch a later flight home. Plan on creating more flexibility in your schedule for your inner process. We encourage you to find whatever additional mental health, emotional or physical services that will to support your integration on all levels.
