How The Eniya Tree was created
'The Eniya Tree' was named in a lovely moment sat daydreaming with my then very young Son, swinging our dangling legs on a bridge over the river, he asked "if you could name a new tree what would it be called?" The name came to me instantly, without thought or hesitation, "The Eniya Tree" I replied. I didn't understand where that had come from, but I knew there was something special about that moment that would make sense one day. Slowly by becoming more aware of what my purpose here is and understanding my own life's journey thus far, I began to feel what The Eniya Tree wanted of me by gifting this name & what it needed to become. In Wales I found a beautiful rare property and there it was. I looked at the barn and said "That's the Eniya Tree Barn".
As it was spruced up it started forming into what it needed to be, this very unique space in a very unique environment.
So, whatever brings you to the barn I hope it will give you a sense of real magick just to be here.
You'll have the opportunity to journey into self discovery and awareness through various options not limited to meditation, silence, the natural environment & mindfulness. It's a perfect place to start to understand there's a better version of yourself to spend time with.
I like everyone have trod my own 'perfect' personal path that led me to here and now. Lifestyles very rarely offer up the real truth to be seen about ourselves or a glaring clarity through others but The Eniya Barn seems to have a capability to hold the clearest of mirrors up. Many run or find excuses for what they see when confronted with themselves but the ones that are ready to stay, face & honour what is shown will emerge as true warriors for this planet.
I had always been drawn to nature, the wilds, the native American ways of sitting & communicating around a circular fire, the dark journeying, the moon, the creative & different path. I've never been afraid of being & exploring alone & daring to be different. I'd rather help awaken you than be liked by you but if you like me too then thats a bonus.
Whilst sitting alone on the red earth at Uluru with the native aboriginals it pulled me back into acknowledging the importance of our lost ancestral ways. The importance of holding space & deeply listening with care is diminishing fast.
I spent one of the strangest nights of my life in Hampshire, literally down a human sized rabbit hole in the woods, I crept like Alice in wonderland through a small hole in the earth just big enough to wiggle like a worm downwards that led down underground into the forest floor, which then opened out into a hollwed out hole big enough to fit 2 people to sit & sleep of which we did. One of the photos on the website is from down there. I still don't know how I did it as confined spaces are far from my comfort place especially if there's no quick exit. It was an extremely bizarre experience being underground in the earth whilst alive. Its a night that still sits with me to this day. Offering Soul Quests was the nearerst thing to this experience of dying whilst alive I could offer. No crawling physically down under the earth is necessary for you though.
My first retreat experience at 'The Barn' in Sharpham Devon led to a moment of powerful realization that this different way of being was real and that it can exist but many rebel against and misunderstand self dicipline. The Barn will always hold a special place in my heart for shaping my own Eniya Barn experience all these years later. Before embarking on this new life I wanted to gain a counselling qualification to enhance my ability to help people and did so prior to moving but then of course took that in a different direction offering a method that gained faster results than the generics of 'normal' counselling. My Question is are you ready to change your DNA?
I continue on this most wonder-full journey and hope that I cross paths on this 'extra-ordinary' experience with you.
