Yes, we are going to the World Retreat!
People who are going to the Acem Meditation World Retreat 2016.
Hiking in the Pyrenees
My wife Joy and I spent a week hiking in the Pyrenees last summer, in the Aigüestortes national park close to the site of next year's World Retreat.
Once-in-a-lifetime experience
When Acem celebrates 50 years of existence in 2016, the major celebratory event will be a world retreat bringing together Acem meditators from all over the globe. Several hundred participants from various countries and continents will meet for a week of long meditations, guidance, seminars, yoga, mountain walks and social activities.
Team España!
Acem's intensive activities in Spain are possible thanks to considerable local efforts, including a number of moderators who help take care of those who have already learned Acem Meditation. Margaret Garcia-Moraga Koch in Alicante is one of them.
“I’ve become more receptive.”
When a friend recommended Acem Meditation, Josefina Prieto decided to give it a try. She soon discovered this was something she wanted to go for. “It gave me a different perspective on important areas of my life.” Then she went to the summer retreat.
What happened in Spain?
Success is a challenge and must be met with a flexible attitude. When Acem's founder Dr. Are Holen was interviewed by a Barcelona newspaper, there was a boom in the interest in Acem Meditation in Spain. Activities were rescheduled, and within half a month 442 people had learnt the technique.
