The suggested donation is the minimal amount needed to help us meet expenses. Those blessed with more may wish to contribute more and those who have less may give less.

Are you feeling fatigue from personal or societal ills, loneliness, overwhelmed?  Or would you simply love to develop more resilience and centeredness for daily life and the work you are passionately engaged in?  Ancient spiritual wisdom and current science are showing we can actually shift the way our brains work, to experience less reactivity toward greater calm and purpose.  When we combine mindfulness tools with spiritual, contemplative practice, we can experience this transformation in a beautiful way.

We will include praying with the Sisters of St. Getrude as well as meals together as part of this retreat.
