The IAM Retreat Into The Heart involves personal guidance and a totally customized retreat experience. The IAM University of the Heart includes one individual 7-day retreat, which is the most advanced and intensive method we have to give the student the experience of the heart. We are drawing upon an ancient spiritual tradition of retreats, following the example of those masters, saints and prophets who have pioneered the method of spiritual retreats, and utilizing the deep and long experience of our specially-trained IAM Retreat Guides. The retreat is conducted in solitude, in a specially dedicated environment.

Each retreatant works with an IAM Retreat Guide, who has a great deal of personal retreat experience and skill in meditation. The Retreat Guide creates a schedule and gives practices based on your level of experience, your special needs and challenges, your step of realization, and the kind of energy in your heart.

The Retreat Guide holds one group meeting each day with all the retreatants. You’ll benefit from the group experience of meditation during this meeting, and the instruction the guide gives on some core practices that the whole group will do.

The Retreat Guide also meets individually with each retreatant once a day, to further customize the experience and check in with the retreatant on how the process is going, and how the energy is building. The Retreat Guide prepares a schedule for the retreat with input from the retreatant, and a book for the week full of inspirational readings and details on the practices.

Daily breath-work, Heart Rhythm Meditation, sounds, prayers, songs, Heart Rhythm Movement, music, walks in nature, journaling, and talks with the Retreat Guide are all tools in the process. You will be “in-process” continually; even the breaks for meals and sleeping are part of the retreat. It is an unspeakable delight to be in your heart, immersed in love, for days without end.

You will find the retreat to be very deep and profound, with a great deal of personal guidance and support.
