2027

One Year

Meditation & Alchemy programme

I wanted this first version of this programme to be for those of you who have trained for many

years and need this type of consistent depth. Undertaking this year is primarily making a

commitment to your sitting practice, to take it deeper, and to dedicate a minimum of an hour a

day to it, alongside the meet-up times. Your Nei Gong training is an inherent and vital part of the

year to carry on alongside this programme. The programme itself will include the more advanced

aspects of Nei Gong training. It needs to be understood the place of the Nei Gong within this

process, without it the sitting practice will fade into dullness.

The format is slightly different to the other programmes as we start with a five day event, followed

by a four day, a four day and then we will end with a traditional 10 day period of retreat in

November. Alongside that will be weekly (Monday at 6.30am, where possible) Zoom sits, just for

the group and four (or more if needed) Zoom 1:1 with Sophie for troubleshooting/guidance.

Cost £2200 to cover all the training/retreats/zoom sits/1:1. All training will be at Bonhays. For the

10 day the cost of the accommodation will be considerably reduced to make it

affordable for everyone, whilst covering our costs.

Places are limited. Emails have been sent out to those who have already applied. If you are interested, we can put you on the waiting list incase someone who already has applied cannot make it.
