About this Event

Join us for a heart-centered New Year’s retreat — a nourishing weekend of reflection, connection, and renewal as we transition into a new cycle of life.
In the darkest part of winter, we gather to celebrate the bright gifts of our lives, honor our precious community, and reignite the forces of our deepest aspirations for the year ahead.
The turning of the New Year is a powerful threshold. Together, we’ll slow down and reflect on the quality and meaning of our lives, release what no longer serves, and invite clarity, intention, and inspiration for the year to come. This retreat will be both contemplative and celebratory: a space to turn inward, and a space to uplift one another with joy, movement, and conscious play.
Our time will be gently structured around practices that support whole-being renewal, including:
❄ Loving-kindness and mindfulness practices (singing, silent meditation, walking meditation)
❄ Dharma teachings on transition, aspiration, and conscious renewal
❄ Reflective and creative practices including written, artistic, and expressive year-end reflection
❄ Relatefulness practices for mindful connection in conversation
❄ Somatic and expressive movement to awaken vitality, presence, and ease
❄ Celebratory practices of music, play, and embodied joy to welcome the New Year wholeheartedly
❄ Sangha sharing circles to deepen in community
❄ Wholesome seasonal meals (vegetarian with vegan options) to nourish body and spirit

NOTE: This is a non-residential, commuter retreat in nature (participants return home each night).

No prior experience is needed — only a willingness to arrive as you are.
