2025 Summer Silent Retreat Sessions

 

Session 1: July 18 - 20th

Session 2: August 15th - 17th

Have you found yourself wanting to slow down and take a little time to just be silent and in "retreat mode" but feel overwhelmed about planning it and making it happen? Not to worry, we've got you covered, we've done the planning for you and are making it happen, all you have to do is show up! Bring your journal, yoga mat, art supplies, etc. We offer a library full of books and magazines, lots of quiet spaces to read/journal/contemplate, and plenty of beautiful land for walking meditation, yoga, or simply to rest on a blanket in the sun!

 

The intention of these weekend sessions are to be a time of silent retreat to go inward, allowing both newcomers as well as seasoned retreaters the space to enjoy the practice of silence and contemplation. For most of us, it is rare to have an opportunity to share a space with others, in silence, away from the external distractions of the world, while coming into relationship with the quiet space of ourSelves, with our own being. Silence gifts each of us the ability to hear ourSelves, to listen and reconnect to our own heart.
