I thank Stephen and everyone here who helped me to get there-one big family of friends and people I’ll never forget. I am so grateful for stepping into the peace of this time, where time does not seem to exist in the ordinary way, it feels like a year in the layers of meaning and the depth of understanding that transpires in our pranayama breathwork, in words between new friends on the path or at critiques on craft talks, at one on one sessions with Stephen, in my own communion with the mountains and the breezes. Traveling to Italy for this retreat at Casa Della Pace felt like such a leap of faith to me. But, What the Wellness and Writing Immersion Retreat in Casa Della Pace with Stephen has to offer is a unique combination of divine scenery with inspiring people. Before the Spannocchia Retreat, my writing practice had languished for so long it wasn’t even a practice anymore. I was happy to do that type of yoga I already practice and found myself newly commited to be more consistent at home (although that is still a work in progess). The combination of a meditative, physically and spiritually balanced practice to begin each day with the rigor and encouragement of time to write made for a tremendously productive retreat.

Because I was writing poetry, my process is a lot less linear so I spent a lot of time writing material rather than writing poems. I actually quite like what CrossFit has done for fitness, and I have a lot of time for Vegans who make the ethical decision to eat the way they do. It was just like everything at the retreat, and like the retreat organizers themselves-gentle and restorative, challenging and transformative. 5. What would you say to someone who is considering attending a retreat with us in Bali? I highly recommend considering Global Physiotherapy in your search as I will go back if needed. The sciatic nerve begins at the lower back of the spinal cord and extends down to the buttock area making it the largest nerve in the human body. The piriformis muscle located in the buttock region aids in hip rotation to turn the leg and foot outward. 3. Holding the towel, pull the leg toward the body.

Entire body Massage: In using the massage approach, there is no require for any masseur or massage specialist to massage the patient's system. And the way the sunlight came in the window of the yoga studio in the morning, and the view of the mountain from there. The yoga room at the top of the teak house is a place I still feel in those moments when I am just coming to wakefulness in the morning; the cries of the roosters ALL THE TIME; the birds’ nest where I sat so many mornings in the sun, watching the silver line of the horizon over the neighboring mountain. Unani/Ayurvedic, and the final but not the least, Yoga. I wrote, in the seven days of retreat work, 2 full short stories, 5 prose poems, pages and pages and pages of journal entries, and the final lyrics to a song. Even though we did a lot of serious and useful work, we also spent a lot of time laughing, and everyone knows there is nothing better for healing than humor. This is especially helpful for those who spend a lot of time sitting.

The people who acted as our guides and drivers were patient and knowledeable. A great part of that is because of the instruction and organization, but a substantial part also comes from the other people there. Either way, you will have the opportunity to go in whatever direction you want and Stephen is there to help you through whatever comes up for you. I try very hard not to have expectations of things in life but I did have them for this journey. There is the possibility you will make peace with yourself, with life and with death. There are many inspiring people in the world too. They are both gentle and generous people with whom I always felt safe. Organic feedback, that’s how I’ve come to think about it, feedback that is productive without being critical, that enables the writer to evacuate their vacuum in a safe space. In the same way that Stephen talked about stretching a piece of writing to expand the sense of it, I feel that coming here, I have stretched my self of myself to a much broader and more encompassing existence.
