Mystic, Prophet, Activist - Findhorn Scotland

ONLY EIGHT PARTICIPANT PLACES!

MYSTIC, PROPHET, ACTIVIST

4-DAY INTIMATE RETREAT
FOR EIGHT PARTICIPANTS

28 - 31 JULY, 2027

Join Robert and Hollie for an immersive CREATIVE RETREAT in their Findhorn home in 28 - 31 July 2027, exploring the creative paths of mysticism, prophecy, and activism.

Over four days, you will work intimately with Robert and Hollie – within a group of eight participants – in the magical setting of Findhorn.
Each day, we will gather to meditate together, do deep inner work, and support each other in taking the next steps in our work and life.

✨ Day One: The Mystic, Living an Inspired Life

What does living an inspired life mean to you? We begin with an overview of the three paths of a mystic, prophet, and activist. “The mystic is not a special kind of person: each person is a special kind of mystic,” said William MacNamara. What is your chief source of inspiration? What conversation do you most want to be part of in the world today?

Some themes we will cover include:

• Recovering “loss of spirit”: connecting with your True Self
• Spirit of the Depths: hearing what your soul is telling you
• An Inspired Life: staying close to what inspires you most
• Re-imagining Spiritual Practice: to enliven and enrich you
• Stillpoint of the Dance: the universe moving through you

✨ Day Two: The Prophet, Being a Messenger

"There is a recess in us all where the prophet in all of us lives," said civil rights activist James Baldwin. On the second day, we explore what a prophet is. Mike Scott in his song In My Time on Earth has a lyric: In my time on this earth, I will speak the secret . . . I will tell what is true . . . I will say what the heart knows. A prophet practises deep inner listening. They receive a message/teaching they are destined to share. What is your message? What is the teaching you are here to share with the world?

Key themes include:

• Spiritual Listening: “A good message will always find a messenger,” said Amelia Barr, the novelist
• Owning your Genius: embracing your soul gifts and talents
• Finding Your Voice: saying yes to expressing yourself more fully
• Living Your Truth: being more honest and open in how you live
• Walking your Talk: being the message you want to share

✨ Day Three: Activism, Love in Action

“Good done anywhere is good done everywhere. And as long as you’re breathing, it’s never too late to do some good,” said Maya Angelou. On the third day, we strengthen our commitment to activism.What is the emerging story you want to play a part in? What are the enlightened actions you need to take? This is the day when we practice rising up, being more present in our life, and saying yes to our higher purpose on earth.

Key themes include:

• A Holy Flute: being an instrument for something good
• Acts of Beauty: performing acts of love, kindness, and beauty
• Singing the Whole Song: giving yourself fully to your purpose
• How may I serve? working on behalf of the whole
• Love made visible: “All acts of love are maximal,” says A Course In Miracles

✨ Day Four: A Creative Space

The final day is a blank canvas. We approach it with empty hands and an open mind. We offer it to the Divine Plan for our time together. We trust we will be filled with inspiration and guidance to support us on our way. Together we will co-create something wonderful, and we will return home with what Joseph Campbell called “a boon” – gifts to share with our family and friends.

OUR SETTING
The setting for our 4-day gathering is magical Findhorn, Scotland. Each day we will gather in Robert and Hollie’s Findhorn home to meditate, work, play, and be together. We will also make outings to some of the sacred spaces in Findhorn including:
