When you hear the word “Retreat”, what comes to the mind – writing in a cabin by a lake, attached to spiritual study or practicing yoga on the beach? How to make a comeback in your home? This may first look like an impossible idea (although it looks very good), but there are some amazing positivity to craft your own retreat at home. For one thing, it is free. For another, you can decide exactly the same activities you want to focus on, including things that can be included in most retreat (novel writing and cupcake baking, anyone?). Look at these 10 stages to design your own retreat in your home comfort.
Are you craving a spiritual retreat? Time to work, write, yoga or meditate on your craft? Make a small list of things you want to include in your retreat so that you can start the plan.
If you live with others, and especially if you have children, retreat at home may be a challenge. Try to plan to retreat for a time when your family or housewife goes away, especially during the day. At least at least, try to agree to everyone to respect what you are doing. If you decide to maintain silence (see number 8) while retreating, then there is not much talk with you. If you have children, when you know that the children are out of the house, a small (even one day) may be worthwhile to retreat.
One intention is different from a goal. There may be a goal, “I will meditate for two hours each day,” while an intention can be, “I will appreciate and appreciate each moment.”
To determine your intention to retreat, answer these two questions:
- What do you expect from moving back?
- What do you expect you to experience?
Setting intentions before your retreat can help you focus on the experience you want.
Retreat you travel, no matter what attention is, offer fresh, healthy food – so try to offer yourself the same offer. Take out the main task before your return starts, so that you can focus on good goods.
Depending on what kind of activities you are focused on, you can choose books, instructional videos, crafts supply, notebooks and pens, a yoga mat or meditation cushion.
An schedule map is mapped in advance in any appropriate retreat, and there is no reason that you cannot do so. Decide at what time you want to get up, want to eat, work on your project, read, downtime and sleep every day. Of course, the beauty of retreating at home is that you are free to leave your schedule as open or structured.
Cleaning and scrubbing do not need to go to overboard, but the beginning of retreating in a clean -cruelty, the clean house will help set a positive tone. Plan to get rid of dislocation and clean up before you retreat.
Pay special attention to remove dislocation and electronic devices in the bedroom so that you can sleep comfortably. And somewhere else in the house, keep anything away that reminds you of work or things you will feel about.
Consider going without speaking during some of your retreat – you may be surprised how fresh it can feel to get a break from constant Chatter.
Of course, the more people there are in your house, the more difficult it will be. Perhaps someone else would like to participate in silence with you, or you can enjoy a silent stop during the time you keep a house in yourself. And, of course, talk about what you really need!
If there is one thing that appears to be given on a return, it is that you disconnect your equipment. Not going online and not checking your phone or tablet. If you are often used on your devices, it can be difficult to do, but it is worth trying!
In addition to what you can be used to watch online, consider taking a break from things you usually read. Be deliberate about the material you choose to read or watch while retreating. If you want to read a book or watch a film, choose one that you have with the intention you set for the retreat.
