Times of Silence

Times of Silence

Maria Rebuelta, Translator, Madrid

It has been a wonderful ten-day workshop. From the beginning I feel relaxation, peace, a sensation of getting out of time and being able to collect myself inside. But at the same time it is a place of fraternal communication with the other participants. After two days I had already stopped drinking coffee and tea, I was already eating half of what I usually eat. Within a week I noticed the lightness of having lost some body fat, the elasticity of having done daily exercises and stretching. The peace that comes from the slowness with which the exercises are carried out. The times of silence while lying down or listening to music at a very low volume were precious to be in myself, forgetting about chores, desires, and the impulses that usually govern my life. The difference between mundane life and life in the workshops is so great that the next day, when everything is over, is quite hard. Not only do I have to say goodbye to many dear people, to others I have just met, but I also see how the outside maelstrom wants to take over my time, my energy, my life again. And also a part of me, surely a negative part, helps to do so. So the task is to resist, to continue with the practice, with moderation in food, to protect the moments of silence and stillness. Not an easy task by the way. This difference the workshop allows me to see it clearly, it helps me to see myself, to make decisions in a positive sense. And the workshop itself is so pleasant, with the dance, with the music, with the stillness, with the silence. For all this and much more that I'm sure I'm missing, thank you very much, Tamsin. From the bottom of my heart.
Grateful

Grateful

Gloria Garrido Ramos, Journalist, Writer, Madrid

I am very grateful to Tamsin for continuing to teach workshops that keep alive the techniques of the "rapid method", created by Iraqi Sufi Master Adnan Sarhan for being in the present moment. Even now, three years after Adnan passed away, Tamsin's workshops return me to the same atmosphere of love, serenity and deep intimacy with the spirit, that I felt for more than twenty years with Adnan. For me, without a doubt, the way in which Tamsin transmits Adnan's teachings is proof for the effectiveness of this work to heal, guide us towards solutions in our lives, increase creativity, and abandon any negative habit, thought, or behavior.
Nurturing Space

Nurturing Space

Leslie Kuster, Founder & CEO Back From Bali, Writer

I love Tamsin's work.  It is like stepping into a slow, awake, nurturing space of peace and love. She is an expert with using veils as meditation which puts you in the moment.
Through her concentration and dedication to the work, she helps me get into a beautiful, peaceful and joyous state where I can connect with my spirit.  Through her commitment to this spiritual path she helps others
find their way to contentment.
Immeasurable Peace.

Sufi work with Tamsin

Opportunities to experience the Sufi work in its pure form are very rare.  Engaging the body, mind and spirit, as happens in a workshop with Tamsin, provides easy access to contentment and can deepen and reveal levels of insight for the participants.  

It is quite simple, one just moves along in the workshop, relaxing the mind and following the movements.  Doing this can result in profound and immeasurable peace.

It is experiential.  Since language cannot grasp the infinite realms of existence, so too, words cannot convey the freedom and mental clarity one feels after a weekend workshop.  One must attend in person, then the pure energy of your own heart, the concentrated group spirit and potential grace from the cosmos will flow to you.

Sufi Summer.

Sufi Summer.

Paz Diaz, Flamenco & Open Floor Teacher Danzan-Do, Santander

For me spending time at the Sufi Camp is a great opportunity to rest and reconnect with who we are.  The Sufi practice work being done every day,  the contact with nature, and the good company of great people make it a regenerating and healing experience. In this environment it is very easy to let go of harmful habits and behaviors and reconnect with the joy of living.
I was surprised.

I was surprised.

Alfonso Tazón, Santander

I have to tell you that the workshop experience was very good. I was surprised by the degree of serenity and inner openness that I experienced during the workshop, and that has even continued to the present.

All this, using techniques with a minimal verbal component, which also surprised me. At a corporal level, where I have noticed this opening has been more in the top of the head, especially from the exercise of the twists. I thank you and Tamsin for making the workshop possible, and I look forward to participating again in the future.

I sleep more peacefully.

I sleep more peacefully.

Angel Larrauregui, Santander

For me it has been a progressive entry, although the first day it was quite difficult to enter. The second day little by little I have been entering smoothly and I have reached deep parts of myself.  I would have appreciated 1 or 2 more days of workshop. For me Tamsin has collected the unwritten teachings of Master Adnan, and has given them her personal touch, always linked to dance and music, she is a dancing Sufi. The days after the workshop have been very calm and serene, I sleep more peacefully and I find myself connected with my being and I find myself more meditative. On the one hand it improves my mood, makes me more optimistic, and makes me see everything with relativity and serenity. 

Not easy to explain.

Not easy to explain.

Arantza Veiga, Santander

It is not easy to explain with words something so deep. I went to the workshop thinking about dancing, and I danced, but I also found some simple practices, mantras, listening to music, movements accompanied by breathing. Something has changed inside me in a simple way, without looking for it as a purpose. The little head does not need to understand anything, it is a purely corporal experience, and as such it reaches the spirit. At the beginning I did not know how to do it, I needed to know what these practices were for. It was just a matter of surrendering, letting the music, the mantras and the dance go through me. And they did. The dance with the silk scarf was magical, subtle, delicate. And the whirling dance, pure meditation in motion. Everything seemed fluid and comfortable to me. The rhythm of the movement and the resting time allowed me to integrate them. I found the chanting very powerful, and the spinning left an impression on me which I felt even after a few days. The work with veils connects me with the air element, the same as the breath and it is like living the poetry of the body. The atmosphere was very loving and contained, in the good sense of containment. It left me with the aftertaste of living to connect with the depth. Afterwards there was more silence in the head, long and deep sleep and the anxiety for food disappeared. I know what kind and the amount of food I need. I have no craving for sugar. There is a mental clairvoyance of what I don't need: like TV programs, mobile, etc.… Thanks for everything Tamsin.
