Axladitsa – Living Wholeness

“I get it!  This is what it means to LIVE with conscious intention and put all these practices to work!” That is what I said after a few days of living and learning at Axladitsa, a learning center dedicated to Living Wholeness.

I had completed the Art of Hosting training and been around theories and conversations, but I hadn’t ‘gotten’ it yet. I still thought we were basically learning techniques to bring into companies and organizations. And while some aspect of that is true, the real gift of all this is learning to live in the present moment as much of the time, in conscious connection with each other, our food, our word and deed as much as possible.

Each of the five mornings I was there, a small group of us passed a talking piece around our breakfast table, speaking from our hearts about how we felt or what was influencing us in that moment.

My time in Axladitsa changed the way I wish to live. I am grateful to be still connected to the place and the people, Sarah and Maria, as we hold this beautiful land and all the people who visit there in high regard as a model of conscous leadership and living.

We will be sure to have meaningful conversations with Sarah and Maria, the primary guardians of Axladitsa, to hear more about their vision and to exchange ideas and resources with them as we go forward as a global community.
