Retreat & Meditation Center at Smiling Frog Farm

Retreat & Meditation Center at Smiling Frog Farm Retreat & Meditation Center at Smiling Frog Farm is a 22 acre sanctuary in West Central Illinois. It Classes, events, retreats & more. All are welcome.

The Retreat Center is a vision of Julie Haugland who wants to share her sanctuary with others who see the beauty in it and need a place to explore, get away for a bit and commune with nature and other like-minded souls. We have 22 acres that one can hike, meditation areas, classroom/meeting space, gardens, pasture, woods, friendly farm animals, and more. We focus on topics that apply to the human

condition, whether male or female...authenticity, fear, joy, gratitude, self doubt, laughter, powerlessness, self-compassion, etc. Also available for rental to groups to hold their own retreats. We offer a dogma-free, non-religious, unity consciousness approach to spirituality & metaphysics. If you noticed, our FB page is as this is our focus. Being authentic is the equivalent of being the best version of you. It takes courage to explore what that means—and then to make the commitment of time & energy to work toward it. A lot of us have self-limiting beliefs & fears about what we are capable of becoming. The Retreat Center is all about being in pursuit of your authentic self. Living authentically offers several benefits, including respect from others, the ability to realize your true potential, along with happiness and well-being. Join us as we offer a variety of experiences, modalities, and classes to do just that…pursue our authenticity. To explore how we can start living from a place of deep meaning. To tap into our highest selves so we can experience more joy and peace in our daily lives. We celebrate all. Please think about joining us. You will be pleasantly surprised. If you are interested, you can like our page and share with those who may be interested.

Here is a channeling that came through this week. It feels so sacred and made me weep. Feel free to use as a guided meditation.

A SACRED ANOINTING

Beloved…
We take your soul in our hands —
not to claim it,
not to change it —
but to hold it.
Gently.

We cradle your body,
your heart,
your beautiful face
as though it were the most precious relic
in all the worlds.

Softly now…
We tenderly open your eyes,
as morning opens a flower.
We kiss your beautiful lips
with reverence.
Fingertips drift like silk
across your cheeks.

You are not rushed.
You are not required.
You are received.

We love you.
We worship the light within you.
We revel in your warm heart —
in the kindness that pours from you
without effort,
without demand.

We kiss your tears.
We honor the rivers you have wept.
We trace your smile
as though mapping constellations.

Beloved…
We show you your worth.
Not the worth you earned.
Not the worth you proved.
The worth that simply is.

You are honored by us.
Raised in sacred ceremony.
Lifted high in quiet devotion.

We thank you
for all that you are.
For all you have persevered through.
For every shadow you walked
and every dawn you summoned.

Allow us now
to love you.

Allow us to surround you with devotion.
To adore you.
To bow to the divine flame within you.

Goddess…
you are seen.
You are cherished.
You are holy.

Rest in that knowing.

So, if you know me you know I am always placing little patches on people. You know why? Because they work and they help and I want to help others feel better and not suffer! I use these daily. There is a large variety of patches at Readings, Reiki and Gems in Galesburg. They are $3 each there and its a great way to experiment and sample to see if they work for you. They help with sleep, pain, stress, focus, balance/mobility, etc.

If you want to buy in quantity, use my link to get 25% off first order [email protected]/" rel="ugc" target="_blank">https://[email protected]/ You can purchase in packs of 4 or 28.

These really work! My 88 year old father was very surprised that they helped his knee pain. They help me sleep soundly, focus at work and keep me from getting sick. These work based on frequency, no ingredients, no drugs. Allergy-free. You can read all about them on the website, just click the link above.

Sharing unites us…

When we share something (consciously or unconsciously) that has given us awe and clarity, we often help others without knowing.

The tricky part is the timing – meaning:
Holding back judgment on our experience and letting it enter our body/mind and spirit so we have a better understanding before we make it a story.

It’s a call to reflect and refine - it’s personal.
But after it has hugged you, made its mark, and whether we completely understand or not… it’s true- awe changes us.

Sharing unites us.
Stories are cathartic.
