I just want to express my deep gratitude and appreciation for all your efforts in making the retreat at the Moulin an incredibly beautiful and heart filling week. I didn’t quite know what to expect when signing up :) but it was a magical unfolding of heart and spirit. I found the daily schedule and balance of yoga and meditation to be perfect. I was really looking to reconnect with my body and although challenging, the amount of yoga was just right. It was very empowering for me to feel my body’s strength, ability and sense of empowerment and ease develop throughout the week thanks to such a constant and sustained practice.

I'm still feeling the benefits of your teaching, but also just your presence at Le Moulin. The feeling of being held in love has remained, and I feel it is transformative. It's as if you taught what I had been looking for but hadn't quite realised - I love Dharma teachings but until now have often felt a lack of emphasis on love at the core of the teaching. My experience at the Moulin has completely changed that. Your beautifully chosen words and your calm, generous presence and your focus on embodied experience helped me to feel alive and connected to a loving web of life that I sensed as a child but had lost.

I wanted to reach out and reiterate how grateful and blessed I feel after this week at the Moulin and for the beautiful and incredible energy that we were able to create together with your love and guidance. Since my return I am slowly and gently getting back into "the groove", but with an overall feeling of ease that I didn't have before. It's only been a few days but I've been able to unhook from stories more easily (I see you, Mara) and remain more present in my body and belly. Yours was my third retreat as you know. The last two were impactful and important in their own ways, but I am starting to understand... how much I didn't understand before (!) The importance and simple magic of breath and nature, of giving myself and the fearful parts of me so much love and care and attention. THANK YOU. ~

I wanted to reach out again to say how deeply grateful I am for the wonderful retreat we've had. My understanding of yoga and meditation has deepened and the qualities of spaciousness, and love are still very present in my days. I think it is only on this retreat that I understood what grounding actually means, how much more I can arrive and land in my body, but also that this takes time. Meeting my resistance to lying down has been so interesting, and now that I know on a deeper level how beneficial it is to rest more, there is already less resistance. But I also have gained a sense of how stability in my legs and upper body will help me to move through the world with an open heart. I feel more profoundly now how a more uplifted posture affects my sense of self. Being silent in this retreat has helped me to get clearer about my boundaries, to respect them more, and to even start loving these boundaries. Something which is easier on a silent retreat than in real life, but the experience has definitely shifted something in me. And overall everything has been so conducive to the integration that I was looking for.

It's hard for me to find words that describe  the experience  of the retreat and all you brought to it. I was nourished and able to connect to myself  and the world in a unique and deeply meaningful way. I am filled with gratitude and love for you and all you share during the retreat and beyond.

What did I want from my week? Deep rest and inspiration. Suffice to say - with immense gratitude - the week and you gave me this in spades and on many levels, from proper breathing in every posture and sequence, right through to the entire way you teach from 'presence' with such fierce grace and gentle courage. It bears repeating that the insight and blessing you transmit is a rare and precious thing.

I am grateful to have connected with you and to be a part of the amazing, and safe community of hearts and minds you have gathered.  This past weekend I experienced an opening of emotional flood gates that I know would not have given way if it weren't for the quiet, nature, teaching, nurturing and peaceful reflections of that week.  The subtle and not so subtle ways my transformation appears to me in the last week are curious, motivating and hopeful. I have meditated every day since I came back and that is a first for me. Thank you for your sage teachings and huge heart.
