This special one week retreat is a rich experience put together, to help take people to their edge, to see how much they wish to grow, or fly, at the end of the auspicious year 2012. The week will be fun, relaxed, gentle, harmonious in a way that you will allow. So the experience is rich with the right information and the same time being natural. Our intention is that you reach the end of the week and this year in a much more evolved state than you intended.

For 18 years I have either consciously, or unconsciously been studying personal growth and self realisation. I have found some things that have helped greatly and other things that have not. I have made a point over 500+ weekend retreats, of noticing what really works, and what does not. Facilitating and learning from 100's of others' growth and development over 19 years, I have picked up a few pointers! This retreat is the very pinnacle of our work.

This Art Of Being Retreat, till now, has basically been 3 retreats in one. It follows the basic path of The Connection Retreat, then The Next Step -More Advanced Retreat, culminating with the most advanced personal growth work you will allow. We intentionally go through each level as quickly as the group will allow. If one person has it, we all get it, so no-one slows the group process. If we need to linger.. we do!

The Connection level is designed to clear out the deep 'weeds' we do not know we have. If you have any blockages, energy, emotion, or mind that limits you, The Connection gives you the keys to be clear of it. The Connection has three set processes of powerful self realisation, within a total of 11 sessions available, that are continually reported to be life changing. We will only cover this level if the group needs it.

The Next Step starts where The Connection ends. It is an educational 'feeling biased' experience, to enable one to access the advanced work normally on days 6 and 7. You will likely become more present, aware and conscious than have ever been after the 4th, or 5th  day. The Next Step is about permanently living in the abundant flow, created by natural connection. You will learn how to live in total love, acceptance, peace, abundance, serenity (if you will).

The advanced work normally happens on days 6 and 7, but the focus of the Advanced Week is for it to be the focus for the whole 6 and 1/2 days. It is intuitive, in the moment, created by the facilitators and attendees as needed or required. There will be special guests who come to share, or support our greater movement and understanding. The emphasis is on wisdom- in flow- with experience- which fosters greater presence and knowledge... naturally. When you connect and flow you be. When you open to more, you be more. This is how we realise more potential - more of who we really are! It might sound fluffy - but that is why you come. Try it!

The purpose of the week is to get you to look within, to see that the real success and self realisation (the key to it all) has always been found within. The more you develop yourself, the more you connect with and attain what was inside you all the time, you discover the key connection to all that matters to you in life. This is inner connection, a 'miracle bridge' to all that is. Your natural self, a rich vein of feeling and absolute truth resonating through your body.

The week's focus:-

The focus is on enabling natural, easy, peaceful struggle - free, love, happiness and personal success - within any context. Our intention is to focus on the innate truth of who you really are, to support you receiving the most valuable information and education you will allow. For you to absorb and integrate a richer, clearer, easier, level of life with greater connection, meaning and abundance in your relationships. As you learn how to connect deeply, the easier life becomes.

If you are interested in learning as much as you possibly can in one week, to gain real answers and deeper solutions to your life, then come and benefit from this week long experience!
If you have 'been there' and 'done that'. If you have read 'all the book's and done 'all the stuff' and are still looking for that one thing, or for that something else, to make it all click into place! If you have a long list of what you want to get for yourself, as well as a long list of questions, or you just have the inner drive to grow, and be the best you can be. If you are into real personal growth, this retreat is for you.

I have a wonderful friend, student, and teacher in Penelope Law, offering massage and relaxation throughout the week . Pen will help you to relax and nurture yourself with Kahuna, Bowen and hot rocks massage from a true master of her trade. She will also apprentice with me and assist your body in shifting to a higher or deeper vibration.

On the last three days from Friday evening, to 2pm Sunday when we finish, we are fortunate to have Kathleen Buckley to complete the retreat. Kathleen is Kean's partner and a yoga teacher. Together they will share the secrets of real relating with children, family, partners through embodiment (as all on the retreat share thier gifts). They will show you something that may change the way you relate permanently, as well as a full education some talk about for years. Kean and Kathleen have pioneered this life changing retreat and ongoing education of the self.

Date 3rd-9th December. Settle in on the Monday evening for a days work in one night, to then prepare for 6 full days of facilitation finishing 2pm Sunday.

The event is being formed as a result of Be Yourself Personal Development's recent success working with clients from beginners to advanced levels, all happy in the one event (having had 100+ facilitators of other work come through the courses). The intention of this retreat is to realise the intentions of it's participants

After 6 years our clients report achieving 80% of personal intentions set, over our 2 day The Connection- Foundational Retreat. So we decided to see how successful we could be over one week on retreat, in one of the highest vibe locations we know!

More benefits:-

  • You will shift and totally transform your life.
  • You will learn how to let go of blockages, be with, and balance emotion and energy.
  • You will learn to use your rich presence and sense rather than to 'think', to be rather than to do.
  • You will learn about real energy, emotion and connection, and flow abundantly.
  • You will likely discover your gifts, as well as others gifts, and see how they work for you.
  • You will be given simple, powerful, information, education and tools, to suit your personal needs and relevant experience.

This retreat is suitable for professionals wanting to upgrade skills. It is for men and woman, as singles and couples, over 25 years old. The ages booked generally are in their 30's to 50's.

Unlimited Happiness- Art Of Being Testimonials (new video testimonees now on this site)
No matter what part of the retreat Kean is facilitating he gives 110%. Kean is a very talented and entertaining man. His sessions are very easy to listen too. When i attended my first retreat for 6 days i was taking anti-depressant medication. I wanted to speak out so i stopped my medication a few days into the retreat, this i thought I would only be doing for a few days. I am happy to say i have not taken my anti-depressants since. This is not to say i have not had bad days but I use to have have bad days when taking the prescribed medication. I like being able to think clearer without a fog hanging in the front of my head. The invite to come back on team for 1/2 price I think is an awesome idea as we can all benefit from a top up of the previous retreats.
I thoroughly recommend any of Kean and Kaths retreats there is something on offer for everyone.
MS - Art Of Being
 
During my time with Kean and our Art of Being group I gained startling insights into my own true nature. By this occurring I now feel cleansed and filled with new inner strength and an expansion of self awareness.  This has allowed me to live more consciously and has enabled me to realize that peace of mind is an internal matter regardless of the external environment.  It is frequently more the mind not the body that is in need of healing and that healing power exists within each of us if we allow ourselves to tap into it.  The space that is held by Kean and the group dynamic at the Art of Being retreat allows this rejuvenating and empowering work to evolve naturally and to truly be achieved.  This week long experience really is life transforming,healing and most of all empowering for your innate being at the deepest level.  Learn to rediscover your "TRUE SELF" and you may be surprised with what you find I know I was and will always be eternally grateful for this.
Kean your powerful true self is with me often when I find the need to pull myself back to my centre and I am so thankful and actually feel lucky in a sense to have met you.  You have touched my whole family as you know and for this I am truly blessed.
"Truthfully with Love Always Rachel Hunter".

A Centre of Harmony and Spiritual Refreshment

The Centre is situated on the Springbrook Plateau in Queensland - almost on the New South Wales border, close to the Gold Coast. Being at an altitude of about 1250m, it is usually about 5 degrees cooler than Brisbane or the Gold Coast, and can be quite cold on winter nights. It is an area of sub-tropical rainforest on the slopes of the ancient Mt Warning volcano. The caldera escarpment forms the NSW border, and the present Mt Warning peak is the old volcano core. Along the escarpment are some of the oldest trees in the world - Antarctic Beeches. There are several National Parks on the plateau with long and short walking tracks and large waterfalls.

The Theosophical Society's property extends almost to the cliff edge overlooking Numinbah Valley, and a walking track leads to the top of a 100m high waterfall that plunges into that valley. The grounds are abundant with Pademelons (very small Wallabies) other Wallabies, and many varieties of birds including brightly coloured parrots and the melodious Kurrawongs. The grounds are a registered wildlife refuge and hence pets are not allowed. Everyone who stays at the Centre comments on the aura of peace and harmony that prevails.

It is a perfect setting for spiritual retreats and meditation. You can sit beside a stream of running water or wander along a forest track listening to the birds. Gazing at the vista from the crest of the waterfall, there is an all pervading senseof Oneness with all Life.

Four brick accommodation blocks each contain six rooms. One block has a double room with en-suite, and one block has a small kitchen. There is one double and one twin room; all others are single rooms. The rooms are equipped with wash basins, and the comfortable beds have warm doonas and electric blankets. Each block has its own showers and toilets. In addition there is a twin cabin block with two bedrooms and en-suites. Up to 30 people can be accommodated. A large dining hall with fully equipped commercial kitchen provides for good food, has a wood stove fire for cold nights, and a large sheltered terrace for warm days. A large meeting hall has air-conditioning and audio-visual equipment. The meeting hall has an adjacent comprehensive reference library for the use of Theosophical Society members only. There is a small library adjacent to the dining hall available to all residents. See the photo gallery for pictures of the facilities.
