Angry, annoyed, or frustrated, why not go on an adults only retreat? The noun retreat often refers to a place we can go to be alone and get away from it all. This can take many forms and last anywhere from a day to several months to years. In the military sense, it means the withdrawal of troops. In this post, I am encouraging a different kind of retreat - a brief and yet powerful retreat towards the Soul. We are sometimes asked to do things that insult our Soul or corrupts our spirit. Although the misalignment can be obvious to us at the Soul level, when accompanied by our own desires and old negative habits, we may experience internal conflict and become angry, annoyed or frustrated. Our Soul's gentle voice can be overshadowed by those much louder desires and negative habits. At those times, it may be wiser to retreat than to stay and wear out our coat of armor. When staying loyal to our Soul's long term purpose is at risk, retreating is a legitimate, noble and affective tool. So the next time we find ourselves in a similar situation, go on an adults only retreat. Take the time to evaluate the threat by digging deep within and asking yourself the following questions: What is really behind this trouble or conflict in me? What is the hidden cause of my conflicting desires and needs? We need to identify the source of the corruption within us and prepare for change internally. Once we understand where our experience came from within our selves, we can restore creative flow and return to a new beginning. At this moment of self re-creation, the old external threat no longer has power over us and we are capable of responsive movement toward our Soul's purpose. We cam then stand firmly against these outermies because our own old habits or destructive desires (inner enemies) have been acknowledge, transmuted and transformed. That my friends is a simple tool for enlightenment.
