Quiet Week: Rediscovering Joy

Tuesday 18th - Sunday 23rd February 2025

There is space on this event

Are you a busy person longing to rest and recharge? Quiet Weeks at Othona are not silent retreats. But they include agreed times and places of silence within them. To conduct this week we welcome back Nicky Temple who writes:

"Discard your bucket lists and the pressure to “live your best life”! This retreat offers the simplicity of living with deeper joy and contentment in every day life. With time to reflect more deeply, you will discover more about who you most truly are as both human and Divine. In sacred community we will explore what it means to live from the True Self, what practices may support this and what a life of letting go and allowing looks like."

Nicky will offer a mixture of guided meditations, contemplative practice, lectio-divina and facilitated sharing circles. There will also be plenty of opportunity to be creative, be still, be outdoors, be with your self, be with God and be with others. Alongside this Nicky will offer 1:1 sessions of Spiritual Direction if they’re wanted.

This Quiet Week gives you time to breathe more deeply and connect more fully. You will be offered safe, nourishing and welcoming space in which you can sink back and discover joy.
