Wonderful magical, healing and utterly life changing week.
 
A glorious week of continuous singing and chant. Learning and developing the ancient shamanic practice of overtone chanting, vocal purification practices, transformative breathing, vocal yogas and sacred chants.

Each week intensive has a different theme. Learning and developing the ancient shamanic practice of overtone chanting, vocal purification practices, transformative breathing, vocal yogas, sonorous meditations, sacred chants, mantras and sonic practices to heal the ancestral lines and transform family curses into their corresponding blessings. Also, journeying through the MANDALA, we experience the union of the sacred masculine and feminine, bliss and emptiness. All Jill’s Mandala ceremonies combine and contain continuous chant, spiritual practice with deep psychological work.

The MANDALA OF WHITE TARA As part of this amazing week we will be using sound as the bridge between the worlds to connect to the source of power through the instrument of our own voice and purify the body, the elements and past karma. Jill will teach and work with the Healing Mandala of White Tara. This work combines and contain continuous chant, profound spiritual practice with joyful deep and transformative psychological work. Many people including almost all Tibetan Buddhists from the most sophisticated to the simplest, including the Dalai Lama, maintain their deep connection with this feminine manifestation of the divine, who acts swiftly and confers compassion, enlightened action, liberation, and particularly, emotional and physical healing and long life. Through working with the extraordinary energies of Tara we are able to ease the blockages to achievements in work, in life and in emotional and physical health , bring about order and flow in our lives and work towards achieving the essential state of reality and become enlightened.

This week is held over the festival of Beltane or May Day (which we celebrate joyfully) , a festival of fecundity when the forces of heaven penetrate the earth (represented in traditional England by the Maypole). We will harness these forces using sound as the bridge between the worlds to connect to the source of power through the instrument of our own voice and purify the body, the elements and past karma. Jill only does one weeklong residential of this kind a year so its hugely in demand from people all over the world – places and beds are limited so its essential to book early.

Jill only does one week-long residential retreat of this kind a year - always different and people come to them from all over the world so do book soon .

Wonderful and magical and utterly life changing. Jill only does two week-long retreats a year, people come from all over the world so do book early - each is devoted to a different spiritual and psychological theme. An inspiring experience and is wonderfully magical and utterly life changing. We will learn and practice the ancient Mongolian shamanic overtone chanting- an ethereal, magical and powerfully meditative vocal yoga, vocal purification practices, transformative breathing practices, sacred chants, mantras, dream -work, a practice to become conscious of and transform family and ancestral curses into their corresponding blessings and heal the ancestral lines.

In addition we will be learning and working with, and becoming the mandala, or structure of consciousness of the supreme alchemical balance of male and female- the union of these two is the ultimate spiritual path, sought after in different ways within all traditions. This ceremony, will also teach us the practice for enlightenment of conscious living and dying. This retreat is for anyone seeking liberation now and the development of consciousness. We will be learning and using chant to liberate us from the afflictive emotions which maintain us ego bound, depressed, unhappy and frustrated, and lead us into a state of joy and freedom from the entrapping games of the mind.
