Virtual, self-guided retreats

Picture

​Below are links to some self-guided, on line retreats that you can access at any time.

Antime e-course based on retreat teaching:
Re-Learning Trust
with Cynthia Bourgeault and Heather Ruce

To our usual psychological way of looking at things, trust must be earned; it is called forth in response to demonstrated trustworthiness. But there is another way of approaching trust, which has always been the way of the great saints and mystics. From this other angle of approach, trust is bestowed—from a fathomless strength and freedom which lies latent in every human soul, flowing like a wellspring from the heart of God.

Contemplative Christianity for Our Time
with Sarah Bachelard
(based on WCCM's John Main Seminar in 2019)

This course consists of five sections, each made up of five lessons: three of these are 15-20 minutes video recordings of a talk from Sarah at the JMS. They are accompanied by a selection of quotes from the talk and a number of prompts and questions to support your experience of, and reflections on, the talks.

Being Alone Together

Over 12 sessions the retreat will address issues around loneliness, including being in the world; being in creation; solitude as a 'cure' for loneliness; learning how to be in solitude; loving each other by developing other-centredness; how meditation teaches solitude; from isolation to communion; and tools to stay awake on the journey.

An on line retreat in 7 flexible sessions
Sources of Wisdom
with Fr Laurence Freeman OSB, Director WCCM
​
Designed so that you can participate in a way that suits you!
The retreat is structured into one-and-a-half hour sessions: meditation, video of a talk, followed by a time for personal reflection. It doesn’t involve setting aside lots of time, but will work best if you designate a period during which you are on retreat: a morning, an afternoon, a day, a weekend, a week or a month.  ​
