Openhand Easter Retreat 2006

I would like to thank Chris from the bottom of my heart for organising and facilitating the Openhand Easter Weekend. And Trin too for all the work put in beforehand so that all we had to do was turn up.

Also a big thanks to Leslie for her facilitating the fire walking for us and to all the new friends I made on the course.

The work we did on the retreat was truly transformational and really empowering. I have been on many spiritual retreats in the past, but nothing quite like this.

I would absolutely recommend the retreats to anyone who is seeking to find their true self amongst all the humdrum of modern day life.

Chris’s method of drawing from many Ancient Spiritual Practices and combining them with the energy of modern music and films is just so amazing - I can honestly say it moved me profoundly and we also had such fun!!!!

One of the things that stuck me the most was the “ordinariness” of Chris which I felt came from a very deep understanding and sincere humility which I have very seldom found in anyone before.

Many ideas and thoughts I have had concerning my own spiritual path were
confirmed and crystallised during the weekend. I also came away feeling
that some great weight had been lifted from my shoulders.

It also left me with a very deep awareness that something in the world was changed for the better as a result of the group dynamic energy that we all shared and contributed to.

Peace and Light
