What happens on retreat?

Meditation

Learn mindfulness practices such as breath & body awareness and mindful walking. Beginners (more than) welcome!

Workshops

Explore activities like painting, improv, journaling, and creative writing. Pick and choose what interests you, or lead a workshop yourself!

Dance Party

Dance without worrying about what other people think of you. We all have our unique ways of dancing (or not – you don’t have to dance either)!

Small Groups

Laugh in good company, take the opportunity to be vulnerable, and play games like “sweet seat” to connect more deeply with a small group of teens.

Wisdom Talks

Cuddle up with a blanket! Listen and learn how to tend to relationships, emotions, the challenges of our times, and more – it’s all about applying mindfulness to daily life.

Yoga

Move and release through guided daily yoga practice.
