We organise spiritual development courses. Our aim is to offer you a comfortable “get away from it all” break in beautiful, interesting surroundings with delicious food, likeminded companions and an opportunity to change your life.
Information about the courses we have currently arranged is included within the pages of this site - you will find the course content, details of the tutor(s), and details of the venue, course fees and booking form. To navigate the site please use the arrows at the foot of each page.
The courses will take place in an ancient chateau in an area steeped in the spirituality of past centuries, in particular
with the Inquisition and the persecution of the Cathars. They will be small enough to ensure that every participant enjoys
the benefit of individual attention from experienced and well-known tutors.
Would you like to add a new dimension to your life?
Our
spiritual development courses aim to give you just that. By attending one you can discover amazing facets of yourself
which you would never have dreamt you possessed.
Have you ever wondered if there is a purpose to your life and if so what
it is?
Many of us ask why we are here on earth and what we are doing here. When you learn to contact your
higher self, spirit guides and other spiritual beings you gain more insight into the larger picture and to the lessons provided to
us by this life.
Have you considered the possibility that there is a world beyond this one and thought you would like to find
out more about it?
People who have started on the path of spiritual development know that there are other worlds. The more
you awaken your psychic abilities, the more you become aware of them. Our courses have been designed for those who want to move
beyond the commonplace and find something more.
Have you wished you could become psychic, but don’t think you have it in you?
Everyone
was born with the ability to be psychic. Some people recognise their ability early on in their lives; others discover
it later. With the guidance of experienced tutors your gifts will be revealed to you.
You may have read lots of books aimed
at spiritual development but never managed to meet a spirit guide or contact a loved one who has passed on
It is very difficult to motivate yourself on your own and you always wonder if you are “doing it right”. Coming on a course with a tutor is a very different matter from trying to work things out by yourself.
We have booked first class tutors who are known for the books they
have published as well as the practical work they have done.
We are currently
arranging several different courses in various aspects of spiritual development which could result in participants learning new skills
which they can use for the benefit of others.
Perhaps you don’t enjoy going on holiday alone
On our courses you will be with other people who share your interests and who are likely to be alone as well. There will be plenty to talk about when you are experiencing the course together: having different reactions to the workshops and visiting the sights we have chosen.
Many people would like to
spend some time with other people who are also looking for a more spiritual dimension in their lives
This is an opportunity to enjoy
the company of likeminded people in a relaxed and pleasant surrounding away from the bustle of your normal everyday life.
The location
of the courses also creates a friendly atmosphere
We have reserved a comfortably renovated ancient chateau with its own swimming pool in an idyllic setting. The chateau owner will be making sure you have freshly cooked food and personal attention.
Another advantage of a residential course is that once you’ve arrived you stay put, you don’t have to add travelling time to your
learning day.
Getting here is easy too - Ryanair - the low fares airline - flies scheduled flights to Carcassonne & Perpignan
and we will collect you from the airport.
Our seminars are limited to a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 12 people which means you
will receive individual help and guidance, but please act quickly to ensure you have a place.
In addition, we have half day excursions
to interesting, historic places close to the venue.
This lovely area of France not only has some beautiful
and ancient places to see, but also has a very spiritual history which can be felt here today. This is the land
of the Cathars. In “The Legend of the Cathars" Judith Mann explains their belief: "Man, according to the Cathar creed,
has three natures: the body, which is the abode of the soul; the soul, which is the abode of the spirit; and the spirit, the divine
spark. Through a life dedicated to ever increasing purity, the composite nature of man can undergo a double death and transfiguration,
so that the formed spirit, born of the spark and nourished in the soul, will eventually separate, returning to the Light." The
Cathars were persecuted as heretics here in the 13th century and many were burned to death. It is reported that
they freely jumped into the flames rather than renounce their faith. During the excursions you will learn much more about
the Cathars and will have the opportunity to experience for yourself the moving energy of one of the sites where many of them perished.
I’m really looking forward to meeting you, ensuring you have everything you need to make you comfortable and showing you round
the lovely area here.
My very best wishes
Mary-Jean Wood
