Program

Retreat Theme - Joy. Essential Quality - Joy.
Welcome to our retreat focused on the essential qualities of joy, spontaneity, and curiosity! These qualities are the building blocks of a fulfilling and vibrant life, enabling us to embrace new experiences, connect with others, and find meaning.

Joy is a state of being that arises from within when we're truly in touch and expressing ourselves. It's a feeling of deep contentment and satisfaction that comes from living authentically and pursuing what brings us true happiness. By cultivating joy within ourselves, we can experience the world with a sense of wonder and awe, discovering new opportunities for growth and connection.

Spontaneity is about trusting that we can let go of control and be as we are, allowing expression without the need to control it. When we allow ourselves to be spontaneous, we break free from our routines and discover new paths that lead to personal growth and discovery, bringing us closer to living a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Curiosity is the desire to learn and explore, including discovering our true nature. It's about asking questions, seeking answers, and expanding our knowledge and understanding of ourselves. Curiosity fuels our creativity and inspires us to pursue new interests and passions, leading to a life of purpose and fulfillment.

Throughout the retreat, we'll engage in a variety of activities and exercises designed to cultivate joy, spontaneity, and curiosity within ourselves. We'll explore movement, meditation, and introspection to deepen our connection to these essential qualities, discovering new aspects of ourselves. Join us on this transformative journey towards joy, spontaneity, and curiosity, and let's discover the beauty and richness of our true nature together.

Why Take the Journey?
Our True Nature is what we call our Essence, it can be experienced as Joy, Confidence, and Vitality. These are dimensions we were in touch with as children and forgot as we grew up.

When we are not connected with our essence, we live life influenced by our unconscious patterns, and we react rather than interact. As we reconnect with our essence, our life becomes more full and we find ourselves having more energy, confidence and trust.

The teachings do not focus on treating or curing a mental disturbance. Even though the body of work contains therapeutic elements, it is not psychotherapy, rather it is a process of self-discovery.

The Diamond Logos are teachings for the times we live in - bridging the gap between ancient spiritual traditions and modern psychology.

This retreat is facilitated by Emilio Mercuriali, a senior teacher of the Diamond Logos, founded by Faisal Muqqadam.
