Assisi, Italy Retreat

The intention of this retreat is to connect with one of the most beloved saints around the world. Saint Francis of Assisi represents the embodiment of a person highly connected to the divine self. After a journey with a traumatic situation, the path of awakening took place in his life. The Saint is teaching us how trauma and spirituality are related. How in the pain we can find ourself in the path of enlightenment. Acceptance of this moment, took the Saint to reflect about what it was important in life. Beside the struggles with his family, he strongly decided that he wants to shift towards simplicity and silence. The life of Saint Francis was dedicated to live in austerity. Saint Francis decided to isolate in the mountains, while he was in the mountain he understood how the birds lived in such a joy for life. At the moment, he understood moderation, the  importance of sensing peace, the importance of love and grace. Saint Francis, dedicated his life to preach the importance of just accept our divine nature and to engage in meditation and prayer. Saint Claire as the divine feminine energy followed Saint Francis steps, she brought the element of nourishment and kindness. Saint Claire was the first women that supported Saint Francis and her sense of support for Saint Francis was crucial to preserve him safe in the medieval times.
