Welcome Reflect Refresh Wonder Renew Recharge Listen Rest

What if you could give yourself the gift of a few hours to simply stop, refresh yourself and nourish your spirit?

What could that give you?

Whether you have an hour, a day or want an ongoing experience, our online and in-person retreats offer protected time and space to rest, recharge and reflect on what’s most meaningful to you.

Solitude:

A 75 minute, online retreat to explore
why we need solitude and how to find it.

In our busy and noisy world,
solitude is a balm and a refuge.

When solitude is imposed or enforced it can be an instrument of oppression and censorship.

But when we choose solitude for ourselves, it can be a refuge and calm our active minds.

Join us for 75 quiet minutes. We’ll explore a range of thoughts about solitude and ponder where and how we find solitude in everyday life. We’ll pause for meditation and contemplation, and listen to our own and each other’s wisdom. Gentle guidelines will support a calm, confidential and protected space.

Clarity

Renew your purpose

Move forward with integrity
and courage

5 sessions, 7 :00– 9:00 pm,  January 15 – February 12

Perhaps you’re at a crossroads?

 

A fork in the path?

 

Maybe something has shifted, in you,

or maybe in the world around you?

 

You long to feel in sync again with your purpose and see the path ahead clearly.

 

Consider joining us for Clarity: five weekly sessions to pause, step back and examine where you are, what you have to offer and how you can move forward in ways that answer your deep longings and serve the world.

 

We’ll get clear on our strengths and values, and engage strategies to stimulate fresh perspectives and generate possible opportunities. We’ll offer each other gentle, honest questions and encouragement as we workshop new ideas and plans. We’ll pull it altogether with principles for moving forward.

 

Clarity is in no way prescriptive, nor will it outline a specific path forward. Instead, Clarity offers time and space to contemplate who you are, what you would bring to the world and how you might do that. Clear, time-tested guidelines and structured conversations will support open, non-judgemental interactions. Each person participates to the depth they are comfortable with.

Registration opens December 4, 2023.
