Beyond the Static invites you to Scotland to experience philosophy in a way you never have. For three days and four nights you will be fully immersed in timeless ideas. Through this immersion, you will embody wisdom that will serve you in everyday life.
What is Embodied Wisdom?
Embodied wisdom is the integration of ideas into our whole being. In this practice, we open ourselves up and go deeper to understand life, death, and the universe.
We ask ourselves, can we love our fate? Actually, love all of what we are.
You will embody wisdom while being surrounded by the beauty of Scotland, and connected to others who have also chosen to share the journey.
RETREAT DATE AND LOCATION
The retreat will take place from Monday 4th - Friday 8th September 2023 at The Burn, in Glenesk, Brechin, Angus, Scotland (on the edge of Cairngorms National Park).
THE JOURNEY
Good philosophical practice ought to influence everything we do. Far too often, philosophy is associated with being in our heads; yet, as human beings, we do much more (and much less) than this. Through the practice of embodied wisdom, we get to embrace the thoughtful and be in a state of curiosity about how it feels.
Getting a joke does not require us to know why the joke is funny. Embodying the wisdom of humour is the art of being in the joke. It is our wish that during this retreat, you experience just as many “a-hahaha” moments as you do “Aha!” moments.
Set against the backdrop of the Scottish landscape, this retreat will enable you to:
Have meaningful and personal encounters with timeless philosophical truths and see how they integrate into your life journey.
Divest oneself of an abstract, idealised view of the world, providing perspective for you in a chaotic period of our current global timeline.
Explore creative pedagogies at a practical, not theoretical, level and attune yourself to creative practices that serve you.
Share creative inspiration with others for their and your personal betterment.
