Through empowering presentations\, engaging small group discussions\, invented rituals\, and moments of quiet reflection\, we will chart a path toward a deeper understanding and relationship with our deeper selves. \n  \nWe will embrace this process with open hearts and minds\, knowing that we have the strength and resilience to emerge stronger and more grounded than ever before. Join us in this powerful journey of transformation and emerge with newfound courage and hope. \n  \nWe will gather for dinner on Thursday\, July 27\, and end after breakfast on Sunday\, July 30 at the Genesis Spiritual Life Center\, 53 Mill St\, Westfield\, MA. Everyone is expected to arrive on time and stay through the retreat’s conclusion. Starting with Thursday dinner\, all meals will be provided.
