Winter Retreat in Santa Barbara, CA, Feb 17-22, 2008
December 11th, 2007
Dear friends,
We’re excited to share with you our next retreat, February 17-22, 2008, in Santa Barbara, CA. This is a wonderful opportunity to deepen the work of the heart. We’ll share meditation, movement, and time together in a beautiful setting. This retreat is all about building and deepening relationships. The path of the heart is the path of love, and part of the purpose of our lives is to learn how to love each other deeply and fully, abandoning all fears and doubts as the flow of love comes through us.
The closest and finest relationship in life is with one who understands, and this is only experienced by love.”
~Hazrat Inayat Khan
You have noticed, surely, that there are different types of hearts in the world, and that your heart is different from others. The type of heart you have determines the life you have.
- Some hearts are broad, some are deep.
- Some hearts soar into heights of joy while others dive into the inner depth.
- Some hearts have great power; others have a beautiful harmony.
- Some hearts can accommodate whatever environment they’re in,
- While other hearts can change the environment as they like.
- There is a full heart, and an empty heart,
- A heart that has all it can hold, and a heart that longs for something beyond.
I hope you can join us!
love,
Susanna

Hi Susanna,
It would be wonderful to excape to the wild,Warm!!! West. We are about to get hit with a really good Winter storm. It was a real Pleasure meeting you and Puran in Boston. What a gift to find your work. Life has been a bit crazy since, but last night at a Quaker support meeting as we ended in our traditional silent waiting or opening. I had an interesting experience. I just started thinking Heart and I felt it from every pulse point. It was a bit strange but kind of wonderful and affirming.
I am reading Energize your Heart and will be taking Webcourse 100 in January. This is a good place to be, a good place for my Heart to be as I heal ….Thanks,
Greg

I just came across a flyer from your 2001 Abode retreat and the focus that year was
on the Heart of Iron, Silver and Gold; the Heart of Nature (Sun, Moon, Crystal & Flower); the Heart of the Lion, Elephant, Deer & Rabbit; the Immaculate Heart & Sacred Heart; the Broken Heart which can never be closed again; and the Weeping Heart, the Generous Heart.
Where can I read and learn more about these teachings? When are you going to do another retreat such as this?
Much love~
