One of four annual contemplative programs that reflects a seasonal theme around “Reclaiming Our Nature,” the Fall Retreats draw from the falling leaves and changing colors to awaken our senses. Meditation teacher and Wellbeing scientist, Deirdre Guthrie, guides us through our own inner landscapes of well being as we engage with sacred symbols of art, nature, and our own deeply interwoven selves. Dress for a short outdoor walk and gentle movement drawn from yoga and qigong.
