After a difficult few months (with temporary relocation and house repairs), it felt good to take myself away for several days on a quiet personal retreat.  After casting around various places, I was attracted to the Tabor Retreat House in Preston.  This house is part of the adjacent Carmelite Priory and offers an excellent, unobtrusive welcome.

It was wonderful to have nearly four days entirely to my Self.  Time to come to stillness in an atmosphere of contemplation.  The simple bedrooms, Prayer Room and the quiet lounges are ideal.  There are no distractions.  This has been a beautiful time of going deep within.  To be, rather than to do.  Working with my own experiences and fears to learn more of that inner Self, to hear to real Voice, to know that beneath all the current dramas in life, nothing real is being harmed.

I come away strengthened, renewed, knowing my Self more deeply, reassured that all is well, and with new ways of hearing the guidance that is always available to me.
