Our day started with an hour yoga session. I did OK keeping up for the most part. I sat some of the moves out. The instructor was great but did more advanced stuff than I do in exercise sessions.
We had breakfast and then left for our adventure of the day. We went to some scenic place and took a short hike and did a meditation.
Then we went to a vortex and took a hike. Had some free time to explore the creek and paths. Some dipped their feet in the freezing cold water. I wasn’t brave enough to do so today.
We had a picnic lunch at the vortex site and then came back to our house.
Nicole had taken our electric car to the charging port this morning. One of the other participants had followed her and then brought her back to the house. When we got back after lunch another participant took us to pick up the car. It had charged to 95% which was a relief.
Nicole and I stopped at a grocery store and picked up some snacks. We are both craving protein and meat. The food we have been getting is vegan. It feels like it is all processed food though and it feels fake to me.
I took a short nap when we got back from the grocery store. Nicole enjoyed a massage. They took us to a vegan restaurant for dinner tonight. There wasn’t much on the menu that sounded good to me. I ended up with a margarita pizza which was edible.
When we got back to the house a lady that read Tarot cards was here and she did a mini reading for all that wanted one. Mine seemed to resonate but I don’t remember much about it.
Tomorrow we are going to a different vortex in the morning and then in the evening we are going to enjoy a sound bath.
It has been an interesting retreat. Neither one of us are impressed with the retreat leader. She is unorganized and a bit passive-aggressive. I don’t feel safe with her as she doesn’t listen well and follow up with questions or comments. She tends to make snarky comments back to deflect issues that need to be addressed.
In spite of that, we are both grateful we came. The area is beautiful and it is nice to spend time together. Always something to learn about myself even when the circumstances are not the best.
Grateful for a beautiful day outside enjoying Mother Nature, grateful our car got charged up today, and grateful for this time with Nicole.
