experience beautiful scotland

You will arrive at Glasgow airport to start your tour. We will drive together in a passenger van to the west coast to an area called Argyll.    En-route we stop in the town of Inveraray which is the home of the Duke of Argyll. The picturesque town was built in built in the early 18th century around a castle that was built in 1789. We will then proceed to our accommodations for the next 6 nights in the village of Ardrishaig on the shores of Loch Fyne. The length of time in the village will depend on the arrival time of your flight in Glasgow. Guided meditation before bed to ground for sleep. There is a tea service in your bedroom with a china teacup and electric kettle with both caffeinated and non-caffeinated tea.

Breakfast in the dining room 8:00 AM. 9:30 begin The Akashic Records Level One Training following breakfast. Over the years, I have found with students when we apply what we learn immediately we receive it fully and will begin to use it daily rather than waiting till you return home. This week will be one of study lesson: apply/ practice. We’ll have fun utilizing our new skills in ancient Kilmartin Glen in the afternoon. There is no pressure to perform. The information is for you and there is no need to share unless you wish to.

Allan Jenkins will drive us just north of Ardrishaig to Kilmartin Glen. In this ancient area known as the Valley of the Ghosts that dates back to the Neolithic period (8000 thousand years BC). While in the Valley of The Ghosts we will open our Akashic Records and channel information from the ancient site. Each person will have their personal experience in this safe space. The Neolithic period was followed by the Bronze age and the area has some of the best-preserved sites in the UK. This area is also the home of Dunadd fortress which is where the early kings were crown prior to Scotland before the clans united to form what we now know as Scotland. The early inhabitants’ are believed to have come from Ireland and were Gaelic and known as the Pagan Picts. This group was later amalgamated with the Celts who were more Christian followers after St Columba introduced Christianity into Scotland in 563. This area is very rich in history and romance and should not be missed.

Kundalini and meditation in the lounge after breakfast. We will explore more of the Kilmartin Glen standing stones. While at the site we will do a mediation then open our Akashic Records and sit with our journal, asking questions about the history of this area. This area has a very peaceful energy.

Today right after breakfast, we head south to Skipness and catch the ferry to cross the Kilbrannan Sound to the Isle of Arran. This is a short 35-minute ferry ride so we can explore the Island which also has an ancient history which we will explore at the Machrie Moor. Machrie (Scottish Gaelic: Machaire) is a village on the Isle of Arran in the Firth of Clyde, …Machrie Moor is the site of a number of Neolithic structures dating back up to 4500 years ago. … but excavations in the 1980s uncovered elaborate timber structures and stone circles which dated back even further in history.  The stones in this area measure in excess of 2.5 m high and again date back to the Neolithic period. Unfortunately, there is no known history of the stones or the stone circles found in this area. The Machrie Moor is also a great area where some teaching can be done as well as some mediation. We will head back to the mainland in the early afternoon followed by some lecture time which will be done by Jennifer in the lounge. Meditation, Kundalini yoga and Question and Answer time. We’ll begin Level II reading for others’ Akashic Records.

We are going to head into Inveraray today to explore the village and the castle which hold a wealth of historical artifacts’ dating back to the early Earls reign and the period of Rob Roy McGregor. The castle and gardens are dated back to the early 18th century and there are still trees on the property that are over 250 years old. We will return to our accommodations in the early afternoon for Kundalini Yoga and manifestation.

Half of today will be a recap what this area has meant to all of you and to look at your writings.  In the afternoon after lunch will explore some of the areas that we have not been to enjoy some social time with the group. You might want to take some time today to repack your suitcase in preparation for leaving our B&B  tomorrow.

Today we have to leave Argyll and head to the east coast to Rosslyn Chapel. The chapel was built in the early 14th century by William St Clair the 1st Earl of Caithness. The stonework in the chapel has some of the finest carvings found anywhere that was done by master stone masons. It is also legend that some of the work there was done by the famous Knight Templar. The chapel and is history was a big part of Dan Brown’s 2003 novel and the 2006 movie the DaVinci Code. The scene in the movie was actually filmed in the chapel and it is one of the most unique Chapels you will ever have visited. The chapel also has to be an inspiration to writers of any kind. This evening we will have a farewell dinner and say thank you for joining us on our retreat. After dinner, we then take you to your airport hotel for a good night’s sleep before your flight home.

We say good-bye to Magical Scotland. Allan Jenkins will take us to Glasgow airport for your trip back home.
