One thing I know from years of experience, there is something so valuable about getting away and joining others in coming into alignment with your own authenticity.

The Big Glow retreats with Brian Piergrossi, and other featured guests from the Big Glow Faculty, are a unique, wonderful weekend of insight, connection and enlightenment as an experiential answer to life’s deeper questions.

The intention of these unique retreats is to come together with others on a path of living more consciously, with greater self-awareness, and open-heartedness, in every aspect of our lives for greater well-being in oneself and the world at large.

A supportive, inspiring, intimate space of natural beauty is provided to come together as a community with others to transform ourselves, our future and our world, in a positive way.

These retreats are a weekend long, unique, evolving exploration, experiential exercise, and inquiry into what it means to live fully, present and alive to each moment, ever more deeply moving into the vast power of this Now, free from the burdens and anxieties of past and future.

Brian Piergrossi will be facilitating a group circle for the entire group every evening during the retreat. There will be smaller group circles each day as well.

The Big Glow Retreat is a co-creative experience. It is a group experiment in awakening to the conscious potential of each moment… An opportunity to relax and open up to a deeper level of authenticity, clarity, purpose and connection.

All communal meals are vegetarian cuisine, with vegan and raw food options.

Participants share music, dance, yoga, hiking, bodywork, and stimulating, heartfelt, intimate conversation with new friends and old.

There is plenty of solitary space for silent contemplation and meditation, as well as a weekend filled with many unexpected miracles and inspirational moments.

These relaxed, rejuvenating, retreats have space available for approximately 20 participants.

This is a drug and alcohol free event. Please make preparations to stay for the entire retreat.

Come ready and open to share your unique gifts and wisdom and receive the gifts of others on the path. Come with the intention to create one of the most incredible weekends of your life!

Comment by Victoria SkyDancer on February 29, 2012 at 10:35am: It's not too early to start thinking logistically...

I'm up for splitting lodging costs (the $90 per night) with anyone else, if they're so inclined. :-)

Oh, and transportation to and from the Greenville/Spartanburg airport would be most appreciated!
