Why Gay Spiritual Retreats Are More Important Now
We live in stressful times. Worries about job security, retirement funds shrinking and how to pay the mortgage affect us all. The media doesn\’t help with all its doom and gloom forecasts.
As humans, we are programmed to avoid anything that feels bad or uncomfortable. If it hurts, the first thing we try to do is get away from the pain, and stress certainly is painful. Were also taught that the quick fix is the best fix. Got a headache? Take a pill. Cant sleep? Take another pill. Stressed out? Have a cocktail, or take a vacation!
Yes, a vacation… thats what I need; a chance to get away from lifes stresses; to escape. We think, That way I can come home refreshed and ready to deal with lifes stresses with renewed vigor. A typical vacation can be a big help in dealing with stress. We get a chance to leave the worries behind us for a week or two, but do we really?
We spend the first few days of the vacation just unwinding and getting used to being on vacation. The last few days of the vacation, we start stressing about going home and all that awaits us there. In between, we get to escape a little.
When the vacation ends, we have go back to all the things that sent on a vacation in the first place. Nothing has changed at home and we probably didn\’t gain any tools on the vacation to help handle life\’s daily stresses. This is why Spirit Journeys is more important now than ever before.
Our personal experience has shown us that a gay weekend with Spirit Journeys can be a life changing event. The introduction to new ways of thinking, the learning and practicing of techniques to handle stress or the building of a support network of friends, can all help us be less affected by lifes ups and downs; to be more confident as we move through our lives.
A Spirit Journeys adventure also allows for the creation of real connections to others not possible on ordinary gay travel. People get to be truly listened to and to speak their own hearts. These kind of connections are invaluable in our lifes. There is effort involved in making these connections. A person can\’t just stay in their room. They will want to be willing to participate with the others in the group and want to be as honest as they can be.
However, this effort is highly rewarding. People know in their hearts that gay retreats can change their very being; they know that this effort can change their overall way of viewing life and that this can help make everyday a vacation.
