Core awareness is another incredible practice to attain optimal focus
Article on Thrive Global
Core awareness is another incredible practice to attain optimal focus. Bringing people back to the wisdom of their core is a large part of the work I do with clients. We have been hardwired to seek external approval and advice and we are often unable to focus because we have twenty well intended voices yapping at us to “do it this way.” Core awareness is the habit of bringing the minds awareness inward, to the center of the body and asking ourselves what needs to be focused on?

![My very first personal [silent] retreat
I embarked to Richmond Hill...it was one of the most profound moments in my life, spiritually speaking.
I "heard the call" and the giant "yes" to what I wanted and felt so strongly about in my career and personal life, but previously had never felt confident enough to step forward.
I heard it, felt it, read it and even smelled it during my 24 hour period of silence. The scent of roses was on my chest the entire time. Only later did I learn the Saint that I have continued to study and learn from visits you with the scent of rose.
Everything in that time of silence was strong and clear. I had never experienced such clear as a bell wisdom and guidance for myself before...and I was "leading" it just by showing up, quieting down and using a gentle process I had dreamed up.
I had an idea of what I needed guidance, but mostly I allowed Spirit and my Soul to move, grow and explore as needed.
Years later when I felt ready and wild enough to host my own Retreat's- Richmond Hill seemed like the place that kept coming up.
But I was scared...
what if others wouldn't like it?
What if they wouldn't experience the same profound clarity and love that I do?
What if an ecumenical retreat center would turn people away or draw those who were more "Christian" than I feel?
I didnt listen to those pesky thoughts...
The rest is history.
It is sacred ground.
There is no way you cannot be moved and shaped when you are here. It has continued to be a "match" for the sacredness of the Retreat I have created for you coupled with the sacredness of Richmond Hill.
Ready to experience it?
