The opening season of the year is represented by the Eagle.
In the Native American tradition the eagle represents depth of vision.
It's an animal that soars high in the open sky with the ability both to have a sharp focus
as well as having a broad vision of the whole.

While the sun is shining in the clear blue sky, Pacha Mama uniquely welcomes the
New Year with a Silence Retreat which also brings the first Transformation Cycle
to completion. From the depth of the silence the village moves into a creative and celebrative atmosphere of groups and events that is coming to a peak with the annual River Festival.

Moving-In MOVING-IN
Opening the Body
with Tanmaya
November 30, 2012
Price: 80 $
Early bird: 70 $ until Nov 23

Open up and tune into the 'vehicle' leading you through the transformation process. This day is about learning to trust the temple of your being. Through the use of body awareness, breathing, movement and dance we re-discover the life force constantly moving inside us.

We will experience various techniques including: learning to ground our energy and embody awareness, breathing exercises to ignite the inner fire, moving to different types of rhythms, and free flowing dance connecting us to the playfulness, aliveness, joy of expressing through our bodies.

This workshop is open for everyone; no previous dance experience is required. All one needs is willingness, curiosity, and a desire to move and be moved.

VipassnaVIPASSANA
Watchfulness, Presence, Awareness
with Ananda
Dec 16 - 19, 2012
Price: 300 $
Early bird: 280 $ until Dec 9

The Vipassana group is precious time that we give to our SELF. Allowing the attention to shift from the world to our nature as pure aware silence.
Simply sitting and being awareness itself.
Vipassana is not a 'doing'. It is allowing. Allowing the mind to quiet down and let our silent nature surface. When this happens we rest into an awakened silence.
As a device to observe the mind we shift our attention to the breathing flow. If something else takes our attention we allow it to be until it is gone and we return to the stillness which is naturally there underneath it all.
There is no need to 'do' the watching, just connecting to this quality which is already there.
The work is the intention and the stillness. The rest happens by itself.
