I am writing this review after my second retreat with the APL team, and I can defintely say that that the whole experience was such a blessing all over again. I was able to address some of my remaining issues from a place of inner safety and a mental clarity that has been growing within me after my first retreat. In the course of these ceremonies I have understood and felt with mind, body, and soul just who I really am and I was able to stand tall, loving, gentle, and playful. I understood that fragility is NOT weakness, moreover the ability to face, feel, and fully accept how incredibly fragile we are is one of the most courageous things we can accomplish. I don't think that any conventional therapy would have ever helped me as much as this. It feeds you the kind of wisdom that you would get on your deathbed at 90 years old, when you look back and realise what life was really about. I am glad that I did not wait until then to find out.
