RETREAT TO BE HELD ON THE LAND!

Open to: Families with children ages 7-15 years old

Description:
Find joy in a retreat for the whole family! After such a challenging couple of years, we’re excited to return The Family Retreat to the beautiful land at Spirit Rock. This will be a time for you and your family to rest, re-connect, play, and enjoy. This is a four-night residential retreat for adults and their children (ages 7-15 years old).

The days will combine age-appropriate meditation and Dharma teachings, games, arts and crafts, nature time, and more. Kids and teens will have organized time each day to be with same-aged peers, fully supervised by our outstanding mindful leaders. Adults will also have their own time to practice, relax, and receive Dharma from the teachers.

We create a safe and nurturing environment where all family constellations, races, gender identities, and bodies are welcome and belong. Children and adults from fellow families often forge lifelong friendships on this retreat.


Scholarship offerings: In returning to the land, we will also be returning to our pre-pandemic scholarship options and policies. All scholarship rates require a minimum fee ($50/night). Scholarships are limited to TWO per calendar year for on-land retreats. And, while we are not able to offer “pay what you can”-type of scholarships for in-person retreats, they are still available for online offerings as space allows.

IMPORTANT – Details on our current COVID Safety Protocols for In-person Retreats.
