As spirit beings our essential nature is Peace. This being so, what has us be anything but peace; what elements of our daily lives disrupt the peace that we are?
The Wonderful Women’s Orcas Island Retreat brings us into a moment when we can experience the tranquility of who we already are. Remembering peace allows us to choose consciously how to be peace and bring peacefulness to our families, friends, communities and to the world.
Through deep listening, a peace quest, sweat lodge ceremony, body work and expressive arts, we will refresh and renew our connection to our essential wisdom and knowing that is peace.
The retreat begins Thursday Evening July 21 and runs to Sunday Evening July 24. Participants will depart Monday morning the 25th. Costs are $495 for alumni, $550 for guest of alumni, $650.00 for newcomers.
Three partial scholarships are available.
Included in the Retreat are individual camping spaces, hot showers, all meals, massage, expressive arts supplies and the fabulous facilitation of Carmella Granado, Margaret Lindsey, MFA and Dr. Rosie Kuhn.
