Ancient Wisdom for Vital Living Presented by the Origin Educere Retreat Centre

Friday September 2nd to Wednesday September 7th

The Wisdom FactorRod Nicholson is the Managing Director and co-founder of Creative Life

International Ltd, a unique business, dedicated to empowering others through

sharing real knowledge and wisdom. In his professional life, Rod has been a

teacher and headmaster, a business man and author, and by any modern

standards, he has achieved enormous success in any venture he has committed

himself to. But he has also been a contemplative man - over the course of the

last 30 years, Rod has studied Christian mysticism, Taoist & Buddhist traditions,

meditation & Qi Gong, and the I Ching. Rod is now embarking on a new project,

one which he calls The Wisdom Factor. To Rod, Wisdom is knowledge which

is applied for the empowerment of the individual and the broader society. What

you’ll discover in this workshop are practical tools to use in your everyday life -

tools which will empower you to bring real change into your life, by accessing

the personal wisdom which lies within your own heart and mind.

some Reiki healing, or a shamanic journey? You might also like to stay with us a little longer, either before the workshop begins, or after the

formal program for the workshop has ended. We will tailor your stay to suit you - email cathy@originlife.com if you have any questions.

they mean? You’ll learn particular meditative techniques to become more conscious of the flow of real receptivity (yin) and real
