Sadly, Buckland Hall, our wonderful venue for our last silent retreat is closing its doors to retreats and going into private ownership. With a list of people wanting to book onto our next retreat, the prayer has gone out for a new venue. So it’s on its way! If anyone knows of somewhere that may fit the wish list, I would love to hear from you. #silentretreats

They raise awareness and provide support for young adults with mental health challenges as well as supporting families bereaved by suicide. Lucy would have been 30 this month. Powerful and moving speech by Josh Connolly with the message that it is time to understand sensitivity and acknowledge that feelings matter. 500 people attending the ball, such love and openness and caring as everyone is here in support of this charity which is making a real difference through action and raising awareness. #thelucyraynerfoundation free counselling, monthly support groups, mental first aid training, men’s group, informal coffee mornings and more.

It is world mental health day. Remembering the light that is within each of us. That there is always light within the darkness. And when we do things that ‘light us up’ we feel better. #hopeforourfuture #lightinthedark

Sun rise, beach and beach huts. Bliss #silence

In the silence, there is peace, beauty, connection. The mind unwinds, the body relaxes and the spirit soars. Lives are transformed. Connection is restored. Hope and faith returns. All is well. #silentretreats

The Labyrinth. A metaphor for life. The path twists and turns yet always taking us closer to our centre. #silentretreat

Nature draws us even deeper. We could hear the leaves changing colour, it was so still #silentretreat

From the silence, our inner artist finds expression in the art room. #silentretreat

We have a space available on the One Day Silence and Stillness Retreat this Wednesday, 11th September. This venue in East Mosely, Surrey, has such a strong presence of stillness that it is easy for the mind to slow down and the body deeply relax. There are guided meditations, personal reflection time in the comfortable lounges or walk in the garden. And everyone’s favourite, a lying down deep relaxation exercise after lunch. Lunch is included. If this sounds like utter bliss to you then let me know. #silentretreat #digitaldetox#stoptheworldIwanttogetoff

If you have anyone in your life who needs 24 hour care then I can highly recommend ‘Revitalise’ who offer holidays for disabled people and their carers. I am here with my parents. It is the first time in 18 months they have been able to be together again. Mum is in a nursing home and needs full care. The extraordinary kindness of the staff, the fun and the laughter and a place where ‘disability’ is never an excuse not to do anything, is inspirational. There are trips on adapted boats for water activities as well as outings and in house entertainment. Not that we are doing anything much other than sitting in the sun and eating lots which is heaven for them. My room has the comfiest of mattresses as it’s a hospital bed! Although I am feeling a little institutionalised and am grateful for a solitary early walk on the beach each morning. What I especially love about these places is they are the dreams of people who want to make a difference and then take action. I admire that so much. Www. Revitalise.org.uk #disabledholidays

Back at The House of Prayer today for another silent retreat. The stillness and peace there is so strong. So good to stop the world for awhile and simply rest and reflect. #silentretreats
