Activsts and Artists -- It’s Time for a Retreat
Our work is to transform silence into language, action and wholeness. Organic Gardens Retreat offers a place where one can replenish the Center that makes this provocative and creative stance possible and fruitful within our communities and ourselves.
(PRWEB) July 25, 2005 -- The great beauty and grace of everyday events at
Organic Gardens Retreat nourishes one’s spirit, one’s soul. The humming birds
drink from the trumpet shaped flowers of Texas Hummingbird Sage, the red tailed
hawk and her partner ride the thermals above; and the mama duck leads her six
goslings through the rapids of the mountain stream. Sit on the deck, contemplate
the amazing shades of green of the native trees and the lushness of the organic
gardens, watch the mountains change colors at sunset and anticipate the full
brilliance of the night stars, for there is no ambient light here.
As
artists and Activists make incessant demands upon themselves and on those with
whom they work. The stress that accumulates in the body as a result may be
addressed with the healing of Certified practitioners of massage, cranial
sacral, yoga and acupuncture that are available at the Retreat. A redwood
soaking hot tub nestled among native oaks facilitates the healing.
Four
hours from Los Angles and four hours from the Bay Area, the Retreat is located
on five acres at 1,000 feet in the Sierra Nevadas, five minutes from entrance to
Sequoia National Park where the oldest trees on the planet live. In addition to
the spirit and bodywork at the Retreat, you may want to talk with, caress these
lovely and knowledgeable trees and perhaps take walks or hikes in their
presence. Please see: www.organicgardens-sequoia.com.
The tops of the Giant
Sequoia and snowcap Sierras are visible from the decks surrounding three sides
of the main building. Middle fork of the Kaweah River is below. The
Accommodations at the Retreat include a cottage with its efficiency kitchen and
redwood deck and the Garden Room overlooking the back raised beds. Each room
benefits from the soothing breeze during the day and the cool downdraft from the
Sequoias at night. Each is tiled with private bath and entrance and there is a
fully equipped kitchen for your use. A Clothing Optional choice is available.
And, if you must, there is computer access!
Organic Gardens as a Retreat
is new. For the past 10 years it has been a bed and breakfast providing organic,
vegetarian, vegan and food for special diets. Guests visited from all parts of
the world and most lived very gently upon the planet. The owner continues to
work as a documentary photographer and an historian. Increasingly she spends
most of her daytime in the Central Valley working with migrant women to develop
their photographic and organizational skills. The journey of transforming
silence into language, action and wholeness continues.
