Divine Beauty–A Women's Retreat
illi News/10041798

LISLE, Ill. - illiNews -- "Divine Beauty: A Women's Retreat" event held at the Science of Spirituality International Meditation Center in Lisle, Illinois, on October 5, brought over 200 women to the Center. These retreats are like magnets–a response to a deep spiritual hunger, as witnessed by the steadily increasing number of women interested in learning about spirituality from a woman's perspective.

The First Women's Retreat

SOS's first retreat, simply called A Women's Retreat, was held in Boston, Massachusetts ten years ago. Four women spoke on the theme "The Circle of Life" (thank you, Lion King): Raising Spiritual Children, Midlife Crises, The Professional Woman, and Spirituality and Aging.

The talks centered on the role meditation plays in coping with aspects of life most women share. Each speaker spoke from her own background and life experience. Each spoke from the heart about how meditation had carried her through rough spots in her life, how it shielded her from the anger of others and diminished her own, and how the experience gained in meditation, of her connection with her inner divinity (soul), allowed her to face growing older without fear, strengthened from within.

Something special happens when women get together in an atmosphere that encourages openness.  Walls come down. When you add meditation to the mix, you get an outpouring of love.

October program in Lisle, Illinois

The recent October retreat at the SOS Center opened with an exploration of the three archetypes of the feminine divine embedded in every woman's experience: "The Maiden, the Mother, and the Wise Woman." The premise of the talk was getting in touch with our inner wisdom as expressed through these archetypes, we can chart a clearer path toward our spiritual goal.

Benefits of women's retreat

Over the years, SOS has sponsored ten retreats. The title, "Divine Beauty," pays homage to the beauty lying within every woman–in fact, in every soul. The themes have changed, the titles of the talks have changed, but the gift of being able to draw women from all backgrounds to this special day has remained constant. Each day-long retreat includes a complimentary vegetarian/vegan lunch and plenty of meditation time.
