Women's Annual Retreat
with: Patricia Cockerill & Jo Mooy
Saturday - March 27, 2021 8:30 - 4 pm
DaySpring Retreat Center - Ellenton
Now Registering for 2021 - Space will be Limited
The annual Women's Spiritual Retreat will be held at DaySpring Retreat Center on March 27, 2021. The 2021 Retreat moves into the esoteric teachings of consciousness, the meaning behind the term I AM, and how "Reality" is experienced and expressed. The concepts presented work with current world situations or personal ones, to empower individuals to overcome negativity and rise above their limitations. The retreat is pro-active in scope. It uses newly created meditations, practices and exercises that enable individuals to gain traction in their spiritual endeavors. These practices form a solid foundation to guide individuals in overcoming the obstacles experienced or "witnessed" in their lives.
This is a a sold-out event every year. If you're interested in attending, do not wait to register. Previous attendees usually fill the space. It's held on Saturday March 27 from 8:30 - 4 pm in The Pavilion at DaySpring Retreat Center. The cost for the day includes a hearty lunch, snacks, tea, and coffee. It also includes a book covering all the material and practices presented. Contact Jo Mooy email: jomooy@gmail.com

Meditation - The Art & Practice
by Patricia Cockerill & Jo Mooy
"I love this book! It works because you have been there and done it, and you speak with truth, from the heart! Anyone who gets into meditation needs to read it!" Author / Astrologer Cal Garrison
Patricia Cockerill and Jo Mooy, founders of the Women's Meditation Circle, have published Meditation -
The Art and Practice through Transformation Publishing in St. Pete. The book introduces readers to their most meaningful lineage of teachers over 40 years of study. The Kriya Yoga lineage originated with Paramahansa Yogananda, followed by his direct disciple Roy Eugene Davis. Sri SN Goenka's teachings were focused on Vipassana breath meditation. The last teacher is Inayat Khan's with his treatises on sound.
The book simplifies then distills the topics into easy summaries: What is Meditation - Why Meditate - Types of Meditations - How to Meditate. It also includes actual meditation practices. The book will be available at the Women's Meditations
starting in October - and at the Women's Retreats.

Visions for 2020 - Held on Winter Solstice
The Winter Solstice Ceremony was held Dec. 21st with participants from across the spiritual community of southwest Florida. They included dancers, drummers, singers and the Threshold Choir. The Mabon Children who brought their Visions for 2020.
These children recognize that times have changed. Instead of wishing for Santa Claus, these children had more pressing concerns on their minds. They asked that "There be no more school shootings - that animals are protected - that the oceans remain clean - and adults figure out what to do."
Visions collected from the gathering were more personl. In 2020 they asked to "remove my limiting beliefs - to find my birth mother - that my son stop drugs - that I become pregnant - that I am able to forgive - that peace comes in my lifetime - that people stop hating each other." Into The Field we place those Visions - expecting them to become!
To seal the ceremony, a Mandala of stones collected from around the world was assembled. To end the ceremony the men, women and children sang the visionary anthem of John Lennon - IMAGINE.
