Gathering with open-hearted people on the sacred l Gathering with open-hearted people on the sacred land of Aldermarsh Retreat Center has been one of the great joys of my life since I began hosting retreats in 2012.

I’m overjoyed to be calling the circle once again. I'm no longer yearning to “retreat” as much as I am longing to gather in small circles where we can create heart-to-heart connections. With safety protocols in place, we'll be gathering at Aldermarsh on Whidbey Island, WA this August 10-14. ::

The retreat is more than half full, but there are still several openings. Might one be for you? ::
