Living In the Here and Now Retreat            Bottom of Page

Residential Retreat - October 17-19, 2008

Cost is $325

It is a gift to ourselves to set aside time from our busyness to reconnect with ourselves and with life. An Awakening retreat is about opening into that place of healing and renewal, and learning ways to continue to live from there as we go back into our daily lives. 

Two powerful tools that aid us in re-awakening to this sacred and mysterious process we call life are keen attention and the healing balm of mercy. When we put these two together, we have compassionate curiosity, the art of being open and available to all that life offers us.

This 2-night retreat will be held at Wellspring, a beautiful retreat center in Ashford, Washington. Wellspring is a place uniquely suited for healing and renewal. Located at the foot of Mt. Rainier in a beautiful wooded setting, it offers a mountain lodge surrounded by cozy cabins, hot tubs, and an outdoor labyrinth.

Please Note: We will share in the preparation of our meals in the Lodge kitchen. Depending on the number of people who register, you will be part of a team of 2-3 people responsible for providing and preparing one meal.  Local attendees will coordinate with those from out-of-state.

To register, click on the Living In the Here and Now link above, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the Registration Form link.  Fill-in and submit the form. A non-refundable deposit of $100 will hold your place.  The full amount is due September 1st, 2008.

There will be no refunds for cancellations made after September 1st, but any payments may be applied to another retreat (minus $100).

Mary says:  "The task for each one of us as individuals is to show up for our own lives. The path is beneath our feet—the destination is this moment with all of the joys and sorrows inherent in it. We don't need to figure it out or try to find the part we are to play in life; it will reveal itself as we pay attention."
