The sacred work presented in this four-night retreat speaks to the heart-essence of the perennial spiritual quest. Key elements of the true contemplative life offered in this experience will open a door to the discovery of greater freedom, joy, alignment, wholeness, beauty, and aliveness through a holistic transformation of body, mind, and spirit.
