I am being drawn by a series of occurrences in my life to attempt an integration of the concept of retreats that bear some resemblance to Asclepian sanctuaries, with the power of dreams, especially in association with aquatic bodywork which can provide a portal to a depth of experience that enables what I'll call soul healing.

A friend of mine started an interesting word game - making your name into an acronym that suits or inspires you - there could be lots for different settings and purposes of course. Here are two of mine:

SULIS - Soul's Ultimate Liquid Inspires Submerging.

SARA - Subtle Aquatic Resonance Area

As a practitioner of aquatic bodywork (based on Watsu) for just over decade now, I've become increasingly interested in looking below the surface of the emerging and little understood aspects of this unique form of bodywork - in particular, those aquatic experiences involving altered states including energy effects, psychosomatic shifts, and even spiritual epiphanies

I've been exploring the idea of Spa-Retreat as a tool for change.
