Generational Patterns that Block the Spiritual Path: Healing the Family Soul

Have you wondered why some of your life patterns seem impossible to resolve? Have you felt spiritually blocked and can’t figure out what to do next? Come to GilChrist to explore and heal the family generational patterns in your family soul that influence and energetically block your spiritual path through contemplative exercises and family systems constellations. You will have time alone and in silence during the retreat to reflect, journal, and walk on the beautiful GilChrist grounds. These reflective spaces will put you in touch with your family soul, help you to identify the family pattern you feel called to investigate, heal the pattern, and deepen the work begun in the family constellation sessions. Individual and group rituals will be part of the retreat. Individual conferences with the retreat directors will also be available.
