Preparing for your

Personal Retreat

Your personal retreat

First, thank you for making the decision to step into this work with me. This is a massive step and your choice to show up with the intention to transform your life will have long-lasting and far-reaching ripples.

I truly love this work and your curiosity and trust are appreciated and honored. This space has been created with a lot of love, curiosity, and pleasure.

Below you will find information needed to help you prepare for this experience. And if you have questions that aren’t addressed here, please let me know.

With love,

Adam

ONLINE SESSIONS

Schedule your four online sessions below. I recommend two before the Personal Retreat and two after, but it is up to you. I strongly recommend that you schedule at least one online session before meeting in person.

Before meeting online, please send an agenda (adam@adambee.com) with questions and topics that you are contemplating. This is a time for you to consider what is moving in you and where you want to go.

Please note that session one is mostly about agreements, setting our container, and personal dynamics between us.

Schedule Online Sessions

Mental prep

Before meeting in person watch Betty Martin’s Wheel of Consent videos or read the book The Art of Receiving and Giving by Betty Martin and Robyn Dalzen. I will not be teaching the Wheel of Consent, but we will be using it as a map and we will all need some basic literacy of how it works.

These videos are about 7.5 hours and very dense (so go slow and don’t start the day before we meet!). They are not required but will help support you on this journey.

Emotional & energetic prep

Meditation

Being able to bring your body and mind into a state of settledness will greatly impact your experience. If you already have a meditation practice, I would recommend leaning deeper into that. If you are new to meditation, I would encourage you to start.

I practice Neelakantha Meditation as taught by the Blue Throat Yoga school and Paul Muller-Ortega. This is a meditation practice that has been passed down through the Shaivite Trika lineage of tantra. If you are interested, let me know and I will connect you to a teacher who can begin the initiation process with you. I do not receive any compensation from this recommendation, it is simply a practice that has supported my growth, transformation, and groundedness.

Contemplation

Journal and contemplate some, or all, of the following prompts. You can do this before we begin and I encourage you to revisit these questions throughout our time together to notice how you have shifted.

  • What is my current relationship to pleasure?

  • In what parts of my life do I have a lack of power? How does this make it harder for me to ask for what I want and say no to what I don’t want?

  • In what parts of my life do I have an abundance of power? How does that make it easier for me to ask for what I want?

  • What does it mean for me to be in integrity in my relationships? How do I know when I am outside of it?

  • What is my purpose in life?

  • What are the gifts I want to offer in this lifetime?

  • What are the gifts I want to receive in this lifetime?

What to bring for in-person sessions

  • Comfortable clothes

  • Water bottle

  • Journal

What not to bring

  • Substances (marijuana, alcohol, poppers, psychedelics, etc.)
