Event Description

We invite you to join us on a journey to explore the patterns that shape your life's path. This transformative 3-day workshop offers you the chance to explore what's been holding you back from deep connection with yourself and the universe around you.

At the core of this journey lies a beautiful opportunity to truly understand your patterns. The patterns that silently guide your choices, reactions, and the ways you connect with others. Some of these patterns frustrate you - you are unable to escape their grip, Others, you are oblivious to but feel their effects in your life.

In this workshop, we will gently examine these patterns with compassion, helping them to resolve. We will delve deep into our patterns of the heart, uncovering the heart’s deep desire for genuine connection with others, enveloped in trust, openness, love, gratitude, and respect. We will find pathways to resolve deep hurts and embrace forgiveness, cultivating a profound love for ourselves that naturally extends to everyone in the world.

Join us on this wonderful journey to the heart. Together, we will unveil our true selves.

We will help our hearts blossom and feel safe.

This workshop is for people who have some experience in Ren Xue. You will need to have done the 1st and 2nd moving methods, Tian Yuan, and Di Yuan. Also, it will be useful to have done some Ling Yuan, the method for resolving patterns prior to the workshop. If you have done some Ling Yuan at Yuan Tze's retreats, learnt Ling Yuan from Ren Xue Washington, Fiona or another Ren Xue teacher this will be fine.

If you haven't done any Ling Yuan you can learn it from Ren Xue Washington, or on Fiona’s Discover Your True You online workshop, or the Ren Xue of the Americas online course. We also can work with you to ensure you are prepared for the moving methods 1-2 as well. 

If you would like to do this workshop but are concerned you may not have enough experience, please contact us at info@renxuewashington.org and we can discuss whether this workshop will work for you (including ways to get the experience needed before the workshop).
