ENGLAND RETREAT
Walking with Merlin: Discovering the Magic of England
We invite you to discover the magic of England with us and give yourself the gift of deep connection and a remembered purpose!
England is a magical place for those who wish to see. It is a place rich in history and alive with mystery.
During your time in England, you will have the opportunity to connect with and explore sacred sites that will open you to the mysteries of this land. Each site we visit will awaken your inner sight and wisdom.
You will have the opportunity to deepen and expand who you are on a soul level as you remember your connection to Mother Earth and the Universe.
Listening to the messages of the stones of Avebury and Stonehenge, the water at the Chalice Well and the whispers at the Cave of Merlin, you will walk the pilgrim’s path and be awakened to your soul’s purpose.
Before you arrive, and each day during the tour, we will ‘tune into’ to the group’s energy to provide guidance on what is best to bring about the highest intentions and transformations for the group.
We will help you connect consciously with your own guides and spiritual teachers and you will receive individual guidance, as well.
