“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it … and love them.”  - Rumi

(No retreats are currently scheduled. This is a description of previous retreats.)

Mostly silent retreat:
Discovering our barriers to loving freely

Are you ready to find the path to deeper connection ... through individual and interpersonal meditation and reflection?

You are invited to join this experience of individual, dyadic, and group meditation, exploration, and interaction to “seek and find the barriers within yourself, and love them.” As we see clearly the hurt and hardened layers, and love them, they begin to fall away, opening us to the possibility of deeper, more authentic connection. The retreat will include experiences that invite deep dives into the barriers that separate us, and time and space to hold those barriers skillfully and tenderly, both alone and with others.

Some of the practices in this retreat are from the Realization Process developed by Judith Blackstone. These are practices for inhabiting the body, working with the held patterns in the body, and releasing into the freedom of our innate capacity for connection and love.

This is a deepening practice retreat for those who have an established awareness practice and an ability to stay with emotion.
