Breathwork Practitioner
Course, with Peggy Dylan

Fri 24 Jun 2pm
Study three powerful healing techniques - Breathwork,
Water Breathwork and Past Life Regression Therapy.
Benefits include:
release of tension, better physical health and athletic
ability, enhanced mental concentration, improved pain
management, psycho-spiritual transformation. Leave certified
to work with private clients, groups and organisations.
For
the first time in the UK Peggy
Dylan and a collective of SUNDOOR
Masters will not only share a course that will
be transformative for your life, but also coach
you to share this amazing gift with others.
Step out into the world following this journey
abundant with healing, empowerment, increased
energy and refreshed enthusiasm for life!
Take home the additional jewel of being qualified
to share this revolutionary process with individuals
and groups. A powerful tool for eradicating
limiting blocks and negative patterns that simultaneously
imprints you with the seeds of success and personal
mastery.
For your Spirit, health and well-being –
an opportunity to study with one of the original
pioneers of Rebirthing and Breathwork, Peggy
Dylan. Peggy Dylan was in Leonard Or's (the
founder of Rebirthing) first certification training
in 1976.
Peggy has been teaching Breathwork for almost
thirty years following her working at Leonard’s
Institute in San Francisco. She was one of the
pioneers in the early creative years of moulding
this now world respected therapy process. Taking
the teachings to Scandinavia, she led the first
Breathwork Certification Training in the Nordic
countries in 1979 and possibly the first ever
in Europe.
‘Peggy's capacity to pass on the essence
of Breathwork is remarkable. Watching the good
work her students are doing with this healing
and consciousness-enhancing tool is impressive.’
Leonard Or
Joining Peggy to teach this week will be an
impressive circle of SUNDOOR Masters that have
been personally trained through SUNDOOR to hold
and support the space needed to manifest the
miracles that this work is capable of. These
Masters also weave into this week their own
unique skills and remarkable gifts.
The benefits of this SUNDOOR Breathwork Training:
• Release of tension
• Better physical health
• Improvement of athletic ability
• Enhances mental concentration
• Contributes to graceful aging
• Breathwork enhances sexuality
• Contributes to emotional mastery
• Breathwork builds energy
• Allows for pain management
• Facilitates psycho-spiritual transformation
Using this extraordinary conscious breathing
technique allows you to tap your internal powerhouse
of life energy, unleashing the vital enthusiasm
and focused clarity you need to decisively manifest
the life you desire and deserve. This training
will explore three powerful healing techniques:
Breathwork, Water Breathwork, and Past Life
Regression Therapy.
This training provides the tools and processes
that can take people from the limited common
state of fight or flight into the centred state
of wellbeing we are all seeking. In a safe environment
we access through breathwork old memories that
may have immobilized our relationships and progression
in life. By releasing these blocks happiness
and peace becomes a logical outcome instead
of a fantasy or a dream.
‘Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing
out, I smile. Dwelling in the present moment,
I know this is the only moment.’ –
Thich Nhat Hanh
Peggy Dylan has been described as practical
mystic. As well as being the founder of the
Western Firewalking movement she is a pioneer
in the field of personal development. Her work
and organisation SUNDOOR are respected and called
on world wide. Peggy’s teachings reach
thousands each year, from companies such as
American Express and Microsoft to intimate spiritual
groups. Peggy is inspirational and motivational,
but it is her love and honesty which touches
people most.

The Journey (SUNDOOR
Spiritwalk)
The Vision Quest with Peggy Dylan and Maria Treviso
Fri 24 Jun 7pm –
Fri 1 Jul 2pm 2005
Peggy, following a Vision Quest she had done with Bear
Heart, a Cherokee Elder, developed Spiritwalk.
She was guided to combine the powerful work of purifying
the chakras with a traditional Vision Quest. We begin
the cleansing and healing with the root chakra and when
we reach the heart we go onto the Vision Quest in nature
to receive guidance in the traditional way. It is an intensive
personal retreat with Spirit in nature where in the tradition
of ancient seekers, hermits, monks and pilgrims we open
for the Divine to guide and love us and direct our lives.
Maria
Treviso is a Native American Indian Ceremonialist,
bringing the traditional rituals, teachings
and songs to the groups she works with.
She descends from the Tarasca (Mexican) and
Tigua (North American) tribes. Peggy and Maria
have been friends for over twenty years and
accomplices in many adventures of Spirit. Maria
brings a rich and powerful presence, grounded
in realness, playful humour, exuberance and
deep caring. It is a great honour and very special
opportunity for you to study with Maria in this
setting where she can share and intertwine her
knowledge with Peggy’s. Expect laughter,
love, ceremony, song, dance, insight and connection.
There is a Sweat Lodge both before and after
the Vision Quest in nature on this course.
Cost 995 Euros (£690); plus food and accommodation
( £238)

Qi Gong Workshop
– Sacred Living, Level 1
Thu 5 Aug 7pm –
Sun 7 Aug 2pm
Deep within the core
of your being lies the secret of living. Raw energy flows
through the network of our meridian systems throughout
our body, influencing every aspect of our life. In this
experiential workshop you tap into these reservoirs of
energy.
In level 1 you will learn
the ancient Dao Yin Movements and Five-Element practices
of Chinese Medical Qi Gong. You will learn how to strengthen,
protect and cleanse the temple of your body.
This seminar will train you to harness this remarkable
source of health and power. You will explore Chinese teachings
about the mind, body and spirit and understand how to
protect yourself from negative social and environmental
influences. You will be guided in learning the steps required
in this five thousand-year-old method to stay in connection
with the Divine Life Force while being actively engaged
in the modern world.
Cost 255 Euros (£185); plus food and accommodation
(£105). £50 per person reduction for bookings
before 30 Apr or joint bookings.
You
will be taught to read the Qi in yourself and
others to perceive blocked, excess and deficient
energies and learn to strengthen and balance
yourself for optimum well being.
At the completion of this seminar you will be
able to channel Qi as living energy into yourself
and others for greater health, vitality and
success in all aspects of living.
This seminar series will be offered in the form
of successive intensives.
Sacred Living Level 1 is the first intensive
offered through SUNDOOR in a series of three
retreats to become a Sacred Life Practitioner
of Medical Qi Gong. Level one is a prerequisite
to the following retreats.
Taya Stanley
has lived in the unusual circumstances of being
exposed to shamans and spiritual masters since
birth. This kindled in her the deep desire to
comprehend the nature of reality and pass the
depth of that healing on to others. Following
this path led Taya to being awarded Highest
Honors in Anthropology from the University of
California for her research on the influence
of spiritual narratives in Western culture.
She continued her exploration of healing in
her post-graduate studies at the Japanese founded
Institute of Integrative Medicine and Five Branches
School of Traditional Chinese Medicine to achieve
a Masters in Oriental Medicine and become an
accredited Diplomat of Acupuncture and Oriental
Medicine. For the past decade she was one of
the driving forces for council for the development
of seminars within SUNDOOR. As the daughter
of Peggy Dylan, having been raised in sacred
ceremonies with wide spectrum of spiritual teachers,
Taya is able to bring sincerity and depth of
comprehension not often found in the West. She
shares a special non-pretentious and humor filled
view of the very normalcy of our Divine Spiritual
Nature.
Barbara Briner
is a Swiss MD specialized in psychiatry and
psychotherapy. Her clinical and practical experience
in both psychiatric hospitals and private practice
have given her an incredible compassion, respect
and depth of understanding into the human condition.
Her continued devotion to complete physical,
mental and spiritual healing for her clients
lead her to becoming an integral part of SUNDOOR
for more than a decade. She studied healing
models from shamanism to Medical Qi Gong to
develop new definitions of illness, health and
our spiritual journey. In this aim she introduced
a broad spectrum of teaching to her medical
practice and pursued a secondary post-graduate
degree as a Diplomat of Acupuncture and Oriental
Medicine, awarding her a pioneering position
in the new field of Integrative Medicine. Her
holistic leadership style allows people to heal
in a deep and real way. It is her vision to
create a dynamic bridge between the wisdom of
cultures so that we can benefit from and absorb
the essence of each.

Experience the magic...then
learn how to take it into your life!
There are few antidotes to today’s climate of uncertainty.
SUNDOOR
has proven, through the decades of success of our graduates,
that our methods work. They have given people what is
needed for personal well-being, fulfilment and achievement
in life. SUNDOOR’s Initiation Training is an in-depth
exploration of our human potential within a dynamic and
stimulating format that includes Firewalking. It is based
on the tradition of spiritual Initiations still found
among indigenous populations including Native Americans
and Tibetan Buddhists. As a participant in this extraordinary
experience you will find new depths of love, joy and capacity;
your vision and passion for life will be rekindled.
Though
Initiation is a requirement to become a Firewalk
Instructor it reaches far beyond that scope
as it is based on the tradition of spiritual
Initiations still found among indigenous populations.
This training challenges you to stretch far
beyond your current life limits. As a participant
in this journey you will be guided through an
intensive process of spiritual awakening and
personal empowerment using the Firewalk and
other processes developed by SUNDOOR as your
base of exploration.
Initiation is a seven
day energetic movement through which the purpose
and focus of your life begins to emerge.
Throughout the week, as ancient ritual teachings
are combined with contemporary therapeutic methods,
Peggy and her expert staff create a spiritual
environment connecting you with that aspect
of yourself which heals, empowers and guides.
The personal and shared experiences of sacred
rituals from indigenous cultures are profound,
providing a new way of being, helping us rediscover
the natural joy that is the birth right of every
human being. The School teaches ancient wisdom
from many cultures, combining it with the most
up to date scientific knowledge available, in
order to catalyse your innate potential and
give you a foundation of spiritual well-being.
Professionalism, excellence of instruction and
an organisation described as ‘the Harvard’
of spiritual training are the fundamental keys
that have ignited the fires of change for thousands
of people across the globe.
‘Awesome, the experience facilitates access
to a realm of existence where
human beings support, love and hold each other
without exception - the
result is indescribable empowerment.’

Margaret Underwood of New Zealand.
Discover and integrate techniques that activate the brain-body

Combining

oldest healing techniques with modern processes
of optimising our brain and body’s resources.
We will be weaving the Brain Gym® techniques
with the ancient rhythm of the Shamanic drum,
allowing you access to bliss-filled states within

yourself and others on all levels - physical,

to facilitate change and to move through blockages
on any level. All the balances can be used on
yourself and on others, so you will leave the
course with an enormous set of resources to
create change in your own life and help others
lead richer, fuller lives.
If you are a teacher or an existing practitioner
this course will empower you in new tools that
will increase the success of your workshops/therapies,

Discovering Druidry,
with Kat Huxtable and Stephen Mulhearn Samhain,
Fri 28 Oct 7pm –Sun
30 Oc 4pm 2005
A weekend of awakening the ancient connection we have
to the earth.
A deepening of our relationship to the elements and the
cycles of life.
A opportunity to study the ancient path of Druidry.
A magical journey to the heart of our ancestors.
Cost £140, deposit £70
Druidry
is the most ancient indigenous spiritual tradition
of the British Isles.
It is a tradition which calls to us deep in
our souls to find our connection with the wild
lands around us, with the spirits of the lands
in which we live, to honour and celebrate in
deep, powerful ritual.
It is about exploring who we are through understanding
of our ancestors, those whose blood is in our
blood, and those of our heritage – those
who inspire us. Most of all it is about relationship
– about our relationship with earth, sea
and sky… the spirits of the rich, dark
earth beneath our feet, all that which holds
us… the liberating ever-shifting flow
of the water that surrounds these isles and
flows deeply through them as it flows deeply
through us…of the wild winds, the sweet
freedom of inspiration of the air around us.
Come and join us for
this rich inspiring journey, deeper into
the energy of the lands around us… feel
the raw power of the earth beneath your feet,
learn how to open yourself to the wild inspiration
and sweet freedom of the air around you, and
feel the your soul’s flow in the rich
journey of the waters that cross our lands.
Finding your connection with the spirits of
the wild, ancient lands around Lendrick, will
open your ability to find your connection to
the spirits of place wherever you are, how to
feel your rich relationship to the turning tides
of the year. In honour of Samhain we will share
a powerful ritual, honouring and celebrating
our ancestors as we honour the earth beneath
us and acknowledging our soul’s journey
with the turning tide.
Kat Huxtable
Kat has been a Druid for as long as she can
remember, feeling the power of the energy of
the lands around her as a child, and instinctively
making rich, deep ritual to celebrate and honour
that energy. As a Druid Priestess, Kat has apprenticed
to Emma Restall-Orr, Head of the Druid Network,
for the past nine years. She continues to work
with Emma, as an apprentice as well as assisting
her teaching. Kat has travelled widely, enriching
her own path by discovering and working with
the priests and priestesses of indigenous traditions
of Africa, Asia and Central America. With her
powerful gift of being able to hold, inspire
and empower others in their journey to richer
connection, Kat intuitively understands how
to facilitate an individual’s journey.
Her training as a psychotherapist enriches her
teaching, strengthening her ability to create
safe space for all who work with her and giving
her greater insight into the beauty all that
we are as human beings.
Stephen Mulhearn
Supporting Kat for this weekend will be Stephen
Mulhearn, a Shamanic teacher who has studies
ancient spiritual pathways for the majority
of his adult life. Stephen shall bring to the
weekend specific journeying/meditative rituals
that deepen our connection with the healing
and guiding power of the spirit of nature. |

Within loving hands you are invited to experience
a miraculous session of breathwork. We recreate
the environment of birth and the comfort of
the womb, and you are guided on a healing journey
that concludes with you rising from the pool
of the River Retreat to the beginning of a life
that you direct. This experience on the dawning
of a new year opens us up to the true potential
of our lives. Past trauma is released and space
is created for the positive future of the life
you dream of.
Let the inner whisper be heard, and your Spirit
can fly!
Claire Hewitt takes us on a remarkable journey
of tuning back into our inner wisdom and voice.
Let your inner voice reinspire you. You need
not be a singer. You need not be a musical talent.
All that is required is the longing for something
you cannot find words to describe, a seeking
of the unknown, a childlike curiosity. This
part of the Celtic Gathering focuses on using
voice, breathing, percussive exercises, alongside
energising and relaxing techniques, as a therapeutic
medium for group and personal growth, health
and healing. For confidence, for better communication
and for presenting the voice you wish the world
to hear.
Hogmanay Firewalk on a sacred land, next to
the flow of the river. (Can
be booked separately.)
Imagine the excitement of joining the lineage
of hundreds of people who have turned dreams
into reality at Lendrick Lodge’s Celtic
Gathering. The crackle of the fire of change,
the kindred spirits drawn to this doorway of
transformation. A path to deep healing, a walk
into true empowerment and a joy-filled celebration
in tune to tribal drums and a Scottish piper.
This year’s focus is ‘the breath
of life’, breathing out restrictive beliefs
and taking in the inner voice needed to coach
you to become all that you dream of. Within
a safe, loving environment we experience the
sacred healing of this ancient ritual of miracles.
Following our Initiation with the healing firewalk,
Claire will fill our hearts with the enchanting
music of the harp, songs of an ancient time,
and stories that wake up the child in you. What
a beautiful way to cross the bridge on 2005
into 2006.
This part of
the Celtic Gathering- 6pm, 31st Dec 2005 to
12.30am,1st Jan 2006.
Claire Hewitt
Claire Hewitt began her musical career as a
singer when she was 16 years old. Moving around
the world over the years gave her first-hand
experience of the rich and wonderful gift we
all have of expressing what binds us together
as humans through music and our voices.
‘I have had the privilege of singing
with nomadic peoples of Kenya, indigenous Roma
gypsies in the Czech Republic as well as working
with Tibetan, Indian and Celtic musicians. I
come from the oral tradition of music and love
to sing songs which speak from the heart. For
this gathering I will be sharing Celtic airs,
stories and contemporary self-penned songs inspired
by the land and my life experience. My voice
workshop I believe will weave into the rich
tapestry of the other healing work taking place
over this unique weekend.
‘Over the past 15 years I have devoted
myself to developing music and voice as a therapeutic
tool through my own personal training and working
with people of all ages. Living in the heart
of Scotland has enabled me to immerse myself
in the rich Celtic musical heritage and to begin
to express through my music the wonder it is
to be (human and) alive.’
Claire who performed for His Holiness the Dalai
Lama at the Glasgow Peace Festival is a rare
treat for the circle of men and women attracted
to this year’s Celtic Gathering.
