In Person

Participants will be guided by Dr. Ryan Erbe, through a series of Christian contemplative-based practices that enable connection with God and Embodiment of His Word.

Open to all who identify as: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, or Queer +. This retreat is an opportunity for us to come together as an LGBTQIA+ community and care for ourselves: to remember who we really are and to recollect our true inner goodness.

The Mind & Life Summer Research Institute (SRI) is a weeklong immersive program designed for deep, interdisciplinary dialogue and personal reflection. Moving beyond traditional academic settings, SRI provides a unique environment for collaborative inquiry and first-person exploration, aiming to inspire real-world impact and foster holistic understanding of the mind, society, and global well-being.

This event is convened by the Association for the Advancement of Psychosynthesis. Recognizing the limitations of anthropocentric notions of separation, Synthesis for a Changing World invites us to move beyond the familiar patterns and silos of our thinking, training and disciplines.

Join an upcoming, experiential workshop designed for those on the front lines of climate adaptation, community regeneration, conservation, and regional response and recovery efforts in the Hudson Valley. Participants will deepen their personal and collective capacities for resilience, drawing from science and the skills and wisdom cultivated through contemplative practices.

This workshop utilizes repeated rounds of gentle movement, guided breathing and meditation to address imbalances of our stress response system.

This retreat will offer a time of community exploration, grounded in the practice of the Six Paramitas (sometimes referred to as the Six Perfections). As we dive into the teachings of generosity, ethical conduct, patience, diligence, meditative concentration, and wisdom, we uncover their relevance in our relationships with both ourselves and others.

Many of us are longing for an in-depth, in-person meditation retreat. This is a great opportunity to do so. Like last year, this retreat will focus on practices and teachings related to the path of the Bodhisattva, a body of teachings all about a compassionate and wise way of being in world in turmoil. This year we will focus on the theme of Confidence with teacher Ethan Nichtern. 

Please join us for this Seven Day retreat with Teacher Rupert Spira. Each day will feature a guided meditation in which we rest in being, as well as a dialogue where we will discuss the non-dual understanding.

Inspired by Rashid Hughes’ contemplative framework: R.E.S.T.-A Practice for the Tired & Weary and Gaylon Ferguson’s Welcoming Beginner’s Mind, this retreat invites a return to the natural ease and wisdom of presence. Through the liberating practices of rest, curiosity, and compassionate awareness, we’ll slow down and remember the wholeness that has always been within us.
