That is the fortieth 12 months that this community of religious, holistic people will come together to rejoice their frequent community, categorical their pleasure in connection and share one massive heartspace. The WBW has its roots in the early 70’s with an eye to an enlightened future.
The Whole Being Weekend is a non-revenue dedicated to the betterment and connection of the group at large. Attendees are charged solely what it costs to host the event. With everyone chipping in -- some just a little, some loads -- they are able to create an environment of group, connection and participation, actually making this occasion belong to the attendees.
My own expertise started once we entered the grounds at Buckhorn Camp and were despatched off to find our cabin. You can camp in the meadows or timber or sleep in a cabin. We stowed our gear and headed off to do our volunteer stint at the registration table for holistic and religious practitioners and like-minded businesses. I found to my amazement that anybody can come to WBW and choose a spot on the grounds to current a lecture workshop or demonstration and simply publish it on the community bulletin board. There have been greater than 60 of these free workshops and lectures that weekend ranging from nutrition, spirituality, self-assist, drumming, yoga, sufi dancing to holistic health topics. It was a blessing to meet all the presenters as they registered and .... I confess, gave me just a little edge in deciding which occasions to attend.
I particularly enjoyed the sufi dancing.
The meals were vegetarian, communal and accompanied by joyful live kirtan music whereas love and connection crammed the room with palpable power and well-known Whole Being hugs were in abundance.
The following day I discovered the Healing Garden. Oh my, a dream come true. Bodyworkers, chiropractors and power healers set-up their mats and therapeutic massage tables underneath the trees and shared their presents with all comers at no charge. I went for the chiropractic therapy and later spent an hour with an power medication practitioner. What bliss to do this in such a setting.
Saturday evening was a raucous concert within the amphitheater with Karl Anthony that had half the attendees dancing on or in front of the stage earlier than the festivities were over. It's one in all my dearest memories of that weekend.
And simply once I thought it couldn’t get any better, Sunday rolled in with even more workshops, a non-public photographic hike on the spectacular mountain high and, the most effective shock of all, the traditional WBW closing activities the place all the attendees gathered in the meadow for exercises in belief, in sharing, in bonding and committing to residing our genuine lives all through the year. Have you ever skilled an Angel Wash? Oh, you gotta come to WBW for this alone. Picture this: you've got spent the entire weekend bonding with these beautiful, loving spirits. All these heart-centered Entire Beings start to kind two lengthy strains dealing with one another while remodeling, uplifting music wafts on the warm breeze.
As the first person on the head of the road, you're requested to shut your eyes as you're ushered slowly and gently by this tunnel of pure love; the place the people you could have come to know whisper all the issues they have come to love and appreciate about you on this Whole Being Weekend journey. This delicious shower of respect, affection, appreciation and love washes over you want a dream. When finally you attain the tip of the line there is a protected, sweet embrace to carry you and convey you back into the light, the place you get to take your place within the line and wash others in flip with love that you just received.
This expertise brought me to tears and I assumed it was because I was a newbie. However as I regarded around, it was clearly touching for everyone present.
