RESTORE YOURSELF IN THE HEART OF HAWAII
October 27 - November 3rd, 2018
PRESENTED BY MORGAN OSMANI

I have found myself called back to the island of Molokai for a total of eleven retreats in only a few years—and ten of them at the Hui Ho’olana retreat center on Molokai, where our October 2016 retreat will take place.
 
With this in mind, I would like to share with you a little about why I believe so whole heartedly in retreats—and why I continue to return to the Hui Ho’olana (“the Hui”) in particular:
  • Retreats provide essential ingredients for our vitality. Our results-driven culture is not built to allow for subtlety or sensitivity—yet in my psychotherapy practice, my ongoing PhD research, and my own life experience, I’ve learned these ingredients are essential to human vitality. Retreats provide the space and support to explore subtle intuition; in meditation and mindful writing, we listen deeply to our bodies and hearts. I’ve found time and time again that the island of Molokai seems to support this gentle exploration of ourselves—and restores the sense of vitality our culture tends to drain. We return to our mainland lives with the core of our being awakened, energized, and strengthened.
  • Retreats are not vacations. Like vacations, retreats do provide a chance to step away from the day to day activities of your life—but they also reveal, challenge, and shake loose our daily thought patterns. In the absence of our old routines and ways of thinking, space opens up for growth. I’ve experienced this myself, and seen it happen in those who have joined me on Molokai—in fact, the joy of watching this change in others is in fact a large reason I continue to return to the Hui.
  • Retreats at the Hui are gentle and nurturing. When was the last time you had three delicious, nutritious meals provided for you? A friendly, supportive community of people supporting you—whether it’s giving you the space you need, listening ears, or reason to laugh? Tall trees providing shade, red earth under your feet, and an expanse of blue ocean in the distance? In my experience, Molokai has a strange way of expanding our inner worlds while gently holding us close. We are able to more deeply explore those inner worlds because we are doing so in an environment in which we feel safe, cared for, and validated.
