The world is complex. Living in a big city is complex. The pace of urban, tech-saturated life, to-do lists, and errands leave little space to emotionally disarm, soothe the nervous system, and enter into a soft body and a silent, humble aliveness of the heart.

This retreat is an opportunity to inquire into being human, remember what truly matters in the short time that we are here, and infuse the city-sculpted mind with the intelligence of love – all in a supportive group environment. The days will weave together guided and silent meditation, group dialogue, and inquiry into the art of inner observation.

This is a non-residential retreat, meaning you will commute to the center each day and return to the comfort of your own home each evening to rest and integrate.

Refreshments and snacks will be provided, but this may not be sufficient for a nourishing lunch. We recommend bringing your own meals or checking out our favorite places to dine.

𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲
There is value in coupling a meditation retreat with daily life at home. This format bridges the gap between deep retreat space and everyday life, strengthening the capacity to remain inwardly aware and connected amidst the mundane.

We recommend preparing your home life beforehand so you can rest deeply each evening. Consider asking family members for quiet time, perhaps unplugging from digital devices, and reducing household chores until the retreat concludes.
