News, testimonials, and thank you!
Personal Awareness Retreat
The Personal Awareness Retreat weekend is proving to be an excellent entry into our 3-day and week-long Spiritual Retreats. For those of you wanting to experience the spiritual retreats without taking our wilderness skills classes, give this a try. Do you have a week to treat yourself? Do you want to get right into the 3-day Spiritual Retreats? Do both. Take the Awareness Week — it can be life changing. August in the mountains is pleasant for swimming during the day and cool for sleeping at night.
Testimonials
We receive many thank you letters each year and read every one of them with gratitude. We thank each of you who take the time to let us know our work in the mountains made your life a little better in some way. Knowing that our retreats and classes can change lives for the better is a gift of love to Lynne and I. Thank you very much for that gift. Each of you have also added to our lives.
- The following statement was made by a 53-year old retired physician from Texas. He had just completed the Survival Skills Week. As he was signing up to attend three more classes next year, he told Lynne: "This class was a life changing experience."
- A 22-year old woman from Northern Virginia wrote a beautiful letter a few weeks after attending the Awareness Week. The following is a statement from her letter: "I have often in my life tried to fill myself with people and what they have to offer emotionally. This has never given me what I got at the retreat, which was a love and truth unmatched by anything on this planet."
- We received a letter from a 43-year old Florida man who has attended both our wilderness skills classes and our spiritual retreats. He states: "I know I'm a better person for having met you and being one of your students. I have more peace in my heart, more detachment from world chaos, and am no longer afraid of living life fully."
- The following comment was made by a lady from South Africa. She was into her third day at one of our 3-day Spiritual Retreats. She had been very quiet during most of the retreat. Her first words to the group were: "I have been looking for this all my life."
- Another heart-warming statement was made by a lady from northern Virginia. She made the statement to the group just before leaving last year's 3-day Advanced Spiritual Retreat. She said: "This is the first time I have felt peace in fifty years."
- The following was written by a 26-year old woman from northern Virginia. She had just attended a 3-day Spiritual Retreat. "I have never felt so much love in my whole life. Your honesty and guidance has brought me more "Growth Spurts" in the last 5 months than I've had in the last 5 years. Thank you."
The Next Generation
 The Next Generation is welcome! Lynne and I are noticing the young adults that are coming up to the mountain with those of you who have been taking classes for years. Thank you for your trust. Thank you for seeing the value and benefits of our teachings. Though our classes are designed to be experienced on an adult level, younger folks around 13 years of age may attend when accompanied by an adult.
Thank you!
Thank you for viewing our website. Our courses are designed to help students experience nature on a deeper and more personal level. As one gains new insight into the gifts provided by nature, he or she will begin to experience how all things are connected. As one learns to live simply and in harmony with their natural environment, they often develop an inner awareness that is beneficial in all aspects of life. If you want a refreshing view of life, come enjoy a class. Our courses can help you to gain proficiency in both inner and outer survival during these times. Look at life from our mountain top. We are located on 300 acres in the beautiful and ancient Blue Ridge Mountains.
