[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 91886, member: 35"] Sometimes we need to take stock of the balance and imbalances in our lives. And it may help to get away, in mind, in body, or in mind and body, to explore our spiritual health and the impact of our emotional and mental health on our well-being. [B][COLOR=Sienna]Retreats Revive Mind, Body, and Spirit [/COLOR][/B] By Suzanne Wright WebMD Feature Source at this link [URL="http://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/features/retreats-revive-mind-body-and-spirit"]Retreats Revive Mind, Body, and Spirit[/URL] Ever since she enrolled in massage school 15 years ago, Erin Susan Parks has been regularly taking spiritual retreats to replenish her soul and recharge her body. “The most impactful has been the silent retreat,” the Atlanta resident tells WebMD. “I’m somewhat of an information junkie, so going inside and allowing myself to turn off the inflow has let things settle, given me time to reflect and make decisions.” Parks is not alone in her desire to find greater harmony and balance through periods of structured retreat. As our lives become ever faster, increasingly complex, and more demanding, reducing stress levels and maintaining a healthy mind and body is critical for our physical and mental well-being. Since the beginning of time, humans have used time away from the world and its distractions as a way to deepen perspective, gain understanding, and revive spirit. Jews have long reserved the Sabbath for reflection; Trappist monks have a tradition of reflection and renewal that dates back to the 11th century. At the Monastery of the Holy Spirit in Conyers, Ga., more than 80,000 visitors a year seek out the pax -- peace -- of its serene grounds. Brother Callistus says a retreat from the normal course of life is a chance to “unwind, hit the delete button, and leave behind garbage. Ours is an experience of solitude and contemplation.” Parks says when she’s on a retreat, the goal is always the same: “To move into my own center, slow down, open my attention and, ultimately, go back into the world having retained something for myself, my clients, my friends, my family, and others.” Though many retreat centers are affiliated with religious organizations, there are also many secular options, such as the Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health.

It was founded in 1965. “Kripalu means ‘compassion’ or ‘grace,’” says Cathy Shamir, spokeswoman for Kripalu. The center offers more than 700 experiential programs.
