Already Alright is our annual summer retreat beside a beautiful forest in Orval, in southern Belgium

with Sue Rickards accompanied by Kath Jones

This beautiful retreat has run for many years. Each year new people are welcomed and each year people return.

We discover and rediscover skills and connections. We fall into heart dances and our sense of play. We weave our tenderness and our wildness. Each year is fresh and new; and each year we build on the trust and confidence in our absolute alright-ness from the years before.

This is a gathering steeped in experience and freshness. We gather and remember who we are and each year is enriched by the thousands of dances, laughter and tears of the years gone before.

The welcome to newcomers is strong and true. The welcome back we give each other is also deep and simple.

Connected to ourselves and each other, we can find ourselves much less interested in thinking there is perhaps something wrong with us. We change channels from our habitual thinking to a more spacious exciting state of curiosity. We can stop fighting the underlying fear that we are not truly ok and therefore relax and become available for a freedom and freshness that can come through us, sometimes when we least expect it.

Each year we build confidence in what's ready to emerge. We’re not looking to heal or change anything, although healing and change happens.

Fresh each year, and as a result of all our years of dancing together, this Annual Retreat and Gathering helps us to keep remembering the value of our unique contributions, our innate curiosity and our deep and simple Alrightness.

Each time again I feel supported by you, accepted as I am and encouraged to go in myself where I never went before because I was too afraid to go there or didn't even know these places existed in myself. That's what I love so much when you teach and/or follow the group energy." Philippe D.
