Kentland Retreat Center | Mechanicsburg, PA
Suddenly my awareness had a deeeeep hunger for Silence and Stillness. The experience we are each having Here seems to be spinning faster and faster, instability, fear structuring, separation arriving on a fast paced highway. Clearly hearing to offer this space for reset, rejuvenation, quiet contemplation and re-membering, I gratefully listen to the clear invitation to provide a Sacred Space for those of us who need this quieting energetic infusion.
Enter into this space of little to no talking. Little to no internet access, by choice. Step back. Step IN.
Yes this event will be Co-ed. We are used to these events being women only, and the men need this quiet as much as we do.
