Why not treat your body your soul and your spirit to a deep dive into beauty.
All are welcome, everyone is an artist.
We will let the artistry of the natural world teach us how to be and how to express what lies within us and how to respond to what lies around us.
If you are an experienced artist I hope that you will find new inspiration.
If you are new to creating visual art just relax and have fun.
We are all there to witness and support the creative light within each one of us and within all of creation.
We will gather to experience and express beauty, love and the vital force of life itself.
What we will do:
Make art with nature itself as well as paints, pastels, pens collage etc, working out of doors and indoors.
Experiment with a variety of visual techniques.
Go deep with meditation and spiritual practices such as breath work, chant and and dance.
Weave music into our practice.
Connect with nature and our own creativity.
Make rituals honouring the natural world and the Universal Spirit.
Have fun and relax.
Your guide is Fay, an experienced Interfaith Minister, spiritual teacher, counsellor and artist who has been holding retreats for many years. .
Each week I feature one of the women disciples with a short extract from of the text from my book.
Can you make friends with silence?
“There is a silence vaster than space itself. It is neither still nor in movement. It is present in all of creation. It is present in you and all your kind.
This limitless silence is that which gives beauty to sound. It is the Great silence that all vibration – light,sound, mass – is in counter point, contrast, opposition, difference to.
All vibration has its existence because of the Great Silence.
We will return to this. For now, hold to the stillness within.”
by our ancestors to beopened up for us as we go inwards to the source of all being.
Iinvite you to sit quietly where you will not be interrupted andslowly read aloud the quote above. Pause after eachsentenceand sink into the silence between the words. Allow the vibrations ofyour own voice to be absorbed into your subtle energy systems. Whenyou have completed the last sentence remain sitting a while and “holdto the stillness within.” You may wish to sit for longer, so when distracting thoughts ariseuse the words “holdto the stillness within” tobring you back to your centre of silence.
Fay Barratt, Rev Laura Roberts, Rev Malaika, Laura Patryas and & friends warmly invite you to join them each month for One Spirit service of poetry , live music, meditation and more at The Monastery Manchester.

Art has always been my first love, though many other things have filled my life. I am a painter, author, spiritual teacher, an Interfaith Minister and the founder and visionary for the Mary Magdalene School of Wisdom. With 50 years experience of running workshops and groups the last 25 have focused on spiritual teaching and the Divine Feminine.
Over recent years I have realised that my experience of being in the artistic flow or being spiritually inspired and guided come from the same inner source. This is the source of universal creativity, of love, peace, and joy. It is our birthright as children of the Cosmos. No matter what our spiritual path or outlook there lies within us a force beyond our comprehension, it can only be known through direct experience. I hope that we can access that creative force together. I am really excited to see how your individual creative journey emerges. There is no right way, only what is true for you.
