RETREATS: SUMMER, AUTUMN & WINTER
Retreats gather for focused practice and training. Each day of the retreat includes silence, teaching, group discussion/interactive work and the living prayer of Creation’s Song. Silent meditation and prayer are the ground of our practice. We are a tradition of love that works directly with individuals. This is exceedingly precise transformational work. To speak of Creation’s Song is to hint at the precision of life in the depth of the heart. The retreats have no religious affiliation, rather call together those in devotion and service to the Oneness of the Divine.
Our summer and winter retreats are residential, in-person.
Our autumn retreat is not residential. All participants are responsible for their own food and lodging.

The Poverty of the Heart ~ from lead to gold
the inner transformation ~ the heart of the devoted servant
Long before they were woven into teachings and medicine to correct disturbance, Creation’s Song crafted and upheld the hidden architecture, the hidden instructions within creation for the way we lived and prayed, how we gave birth to our children and buried our dead, how we guarded the central axis of all life. Creation’s Song carries the secrets of Oneness, the deepest secrets of human incarnation.
Teaching, Transmission and Prayer. This retreat is residential, in-person.

AUTUMN RETREAT
“Ringing the Bell” ~ A meditation retreat in Canada
We will gather beside the movement of 30-40 foot tides. This is a 48-hour meditation retreat. A time for instruction in the art of meditation. A time for conversation in the deep tidal currents of our longing and breath. Ringing the Bell: For Prayer. For Shelter. For the Muse. For Love and the Gift of Life.
Meditation. Prayer. The Muse. How to respond to the crisis of meaning in our time? We call these together at the core of each person. As an artist can give herself entirely to the blank page, as a physician can give himself entirely to the precision required to reach the cure and as the ancient scribe vanishes into the mystery of Love, we live a passion and devotion to what lies behind life, what calls from the hidden depths.
One pearl to the next, around and around, prayer in our heart and hand that we are purified, our passions cleansed of self-interest and fear and our hearts laid upon Your soil.
Be with those who mix with God as honey blends with milk, and say,
"Anything that comes and goes, rises and sets, is not what I love."
else you'll be like a caravan fire left to flare itself out alone beside the road. Rumi

winter retreat
"The Song of Heaven in 3 Notes: The Dark Behind the Dark"
We gather for retreat near the Winter Solstice once a year. At the hand of this prayer we respond to a desolate call that comes for us. This is a retreat to enter the Oneness of life, where each note, each person is a unique expression of the One.
Her gaze is the Milk of God. One touch and She can heal all that is ill. The Song of Heaven in 3 Notes is a plea and a promise. It is a constellation of 3 stars, 3 notes, 3 worlds. Heaven Earth Human. It comes alive in the innermost chamber of your heart, and calls to you. The human heart...imagine a golden compass that spins in the vast space between suns. Imagine within this oracle there lies dormant the recognition of all sound, every name. We were given the capacity to live the communication between all worlds. The mystical feminine holds the key to this work of redemption.
This retreat is residential, in-person.
