Established in 1982 by Linda Christie, The Centre of Light has been highly commended by the Good Retreat Guide for many years. Linda has helped many people develop their potential, and from her years of experience has developed Resonance Kinesiology. This system looks at the many levels of reality and can help you heal and find your true potential. You need no previous experience of retreat or working on yourself to enjoy a visit. If you have explored meditation or therapy but still feel there are more levels to understand, this is a great place to gain insight and healing.

GUIDED RETREAT

Kinesiology is a gentle method, pinpointing where to focus to initiate healing or solve a problem. To look at all levels of being is helpful; our mind and emotions can hold us back, or maybe the physical body is suffering from energetic imbalance. Working with Linda you understand yourself better, the jigsaw pieces fall into place, and solutions are found that fit with your own lifestyle and personality. You can learn to bring yourself back into balance and make positive changes so over a relatively short period of time real progress and understanding can happen. If you choose you can continue the process when back at home.

Linda can pinpoint accurately the exact thought or emotion that is blocking the free movement of your energy and the easiest way to move on. The process can be fun and exciting and the days provide a real opportunity to step back from life so you can find real solutions to problems, rest, recharge and find a clear direction for the future. This could be finding the strength to make major changes and let go of the past or the acceptance of life just as it is. The aim of Linda's work is to create a happy, loving and fulfilled life.

A special package deal for guided retreats has proved popular: the cost per day is £220 and includes four hours of one-to-one guidance with Linda, your accommodation in Fuaran, and all meals.

If you would like to rest and do as you please, but would still like to take advantage of the facilities of the Centre, the cost is £80 per day. Food of your choice is included in this price and special diets are catered for. It is also possible to book sessions by the hour. Further training in breath and energy work, healing, meditation and Resonance Kinesiology is available if you are interested.

MEDITATION RETREAT

A meditation retreat is an opportunity to explore within, and become more aware of your true self. Beginners and more experienced meditators are welcome. With Linda's guidance several different meditations can be experienced to find a method that works well. Traditional techniques using breath and sound are taught, alongside visualisation and more active meditations. Care is taken that the appropriate meditation is found for each person. More experienced meditators can find new methods to enhance their main practice. All can benefit from a place where the strength of the natural world supports your inner work.

CREATING YOUR OWN RETREAT

You can also plan and create your own retreat. Fuaran is light and spacious, the perfect place to write, relax or meditate. Although ideal for an individual, up to three people can stay in Fuaran, with one double room downstairs, a single bed upstairs, a large living area and a shower room. Towels and sheets are provided. Fuaran has its own small kitchen for drinks and snacks while nearby in the main kitchen you can cook and relax. Facilities include a large beautiful garden, library and satellite TV, should you wish to keep in touch with the world. To hire Fuaran for a week costs £400 or £55 per day, minimum stay three days. Accommodation-only retreats are self-catering.
