Contemplative Retreat for Women

Retreat Description
The Wisdom of the Universe moves through time and finds vitality in the many spiritual traditions of our day. Wisdom awakens us to the world around us and brings a deep ecological consciousness and the knowledge of our relationship with the cosmos.

This silent retreat for women will call together wisdom from many of the world’s spiritual resources to renew, enrich, and inspire us to be an awakened people in a world that needs our love and action.

Grounded in the emerging cosmology that integrates science and spirituality, this retreat is a week of inner exploration through one-on-one spiritual guidance, ritual and reflection, embodied prayer and time for personal reflection. Each day includes morning and evening presentations by the retreat facilitator. Music and brief dialogue are frequent components of these group sessions. There are also opportunities for yoga and body prayer. Silence is expected throughout the retreat with the exceptions of one-on-one spiritual guidance sessions, the first meal and closing meal, and the facilitated group presentations.

Sunday, July 7, to Saturday, July 13, 2024
The retreat begins on Sunday at 3:30pm and concludes with the mid-day meal on Saturday.
Cost of $775 includes $150 non-refundable deposit, spiritual guidance appointments, overnight accommodations and meals.
