Winter Silent Retreat @Drumalis 27

Retreats are the BEST way to deepen your spiritual practice of meditation, mindfulness and self-care. Come. Give your head peace. Making Friends with the Present Moment When was the last time you truly stopped? When did you last give yourself permission to simply be? In our busy, always-on world, it's easy to lose touch with ourselves. Our spiritual practice slips. The reflection time we need disappears. We forget to pause and ask: Where am I? Where am I going? What really matters? This retreat is your invitation to come home to yourself.
