5-day In Person Retreat with Miranda Macpherson
Do you long to get out of your own way and come home to the living Presence within you? Are you ready to release spiritual striving and discover what it truly means to live from unity, love, and embodied wisdom in everyday life?
Held in a palpable atmosphere of unconditional acceptance, we will illuminate where you may still be living from the paradigm of separation and what sustains it. As these structures come into the light, surrender can deepen naturally, opening stable access to the freedom, peace, and wholeness that are your birthright and your offering to this world. I will also guide you to take a deeper inner seat, so you can meet all of life with presence and respond from an integrated platform of unity.
Each day weaves together rich teaching and experiential practice—including inquiry, silent and guided meditation, mantra, music, and some breathwork—designed to nourish, open, and stabilize your realization.
In a community field where everything is welcome, you will be supported to:
- Discover what authentic spiritual surrender truly is and what allows it to unfold
- See through the beliefs, self-images, and attachments that sustain separation
- Understand why old patterns return, even when they no longer serve you
- Allow for absorption back into the very Source of your Being
- Stabilize realization so you can genuinely live from love and freedom in daily life
- Let your awakening naturally bless your loved ones and our world

The place to – BE is located in the east of the Netherlands, it is surrounded by woods and meadows and situated on the Slangenburg estate. The historic Brunsveld farm, built in 1921 by the residents of Slangenburg Castle, was converted 100 years later into a venue for retreats, workshops, training courses and other gatherings. The center can be reached by car or by regular public transport in 2 hours from Schiphol Airport, using for the last part a taxi shuttle from Doetinchem station.
