2024 Ohio Annual Teaching Retreat

The Shape of a Céile Dé Teaching Retreat 

Céile Dé annual in-person teaching retreats are designed to be intense, deliberately so, in order to create conditions that people are generally unable to manifest by themselves at home and in their everyday lives. Our hope is that this environment will foster a greater ability to recognize one's habitual patterns and to absorb and respond to that which is transmitted through the teachings -- and that some of those effects will travel home with each retreatant. Typically:

• Days begin with meditation before breakfast.

• During the morning and afternoon, several hour-long sessions are devoted to  teachings and to sharing insights and experiences related to the teachings, with breaks for silent reflection in between.

• Each day's schedule includes time to engage with Nature, God's first scripture.

• There is another meditation or some other spiritual practice at midday and again before dinner.
