Promoting Peace, Comfort, & Joy through Meditation & the Creative Arts While Supporting the Plight of the Bees
MENS RETREAT
Embodying A New Masculine
Saturday November 10th 9am - 4pm
Mystic Bee Sanctuary
“True masculine power happens when courage, integrity, vulnerability, compassion, awareness, and the capacity to take strong action are all functioning together. Such power is potent but not aggressive, challenging but not shaming, grounded but not rigid, forceful but not pushy. Again, it requires head, heart, and guts in full-blooded alignment.”
- Robert Augustus Masters

SELVY THIRUVENGADAM
Retreat Facilitator
I have been an artist all my life and a Masters Level Art Therapist and Sandtray Therapist since 1993. As a result of
my years of working in acute medical and psychiatric units, substance abuse treatment centers, residential treatment facilities and private practice, along with my lifelong practice of meditation (since I was three), I specialized in helping people with addictions who had chronic mental illness. I have taught meditation for over twenty years. My present focus is on bringing people together in circles to not only celebrate all of life, but to also learn to thrive through inner exploration, sacred celebrations and creative experiences. In 2016 I founded the Mystic Bee Sanctuary in Kailua-Kona, Hawai’i, where I live with my husband, Mike and my dog, Smudge.
CARIE BICCHIERI
Retreat Facilitator
I have lived most of my life in the mountains of British Columbia. The call of Nature and the Wild things really inform my daily Embodied living and my passion for Connection. A true sense of Joy transmits through me as I share and
practice with others the tools I have incorporated into my daily Life experiences. I am a certified Feldenkrais® Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner and a Teacher of the Embodied Life School TM. All of these modalities support and create Inner & Outer connection through Movement - Sensory Awareness - Felt Sensing - Meaning - Embodied Listening - Speaking & Imagery! Embodiment refers to the experience of Wholeness - The integration of mind/body/spirit! The body is supported as a vehicle through which the entire human being and one’s relationship to life can be explored.
Let’s Play & Learn together!
