Retreats always involve movement: Physical, cultural, psychospiritual, and political. Some of the most potent retreat experiences are the ones that bring us to the edge of our comfort zones. From the edges, the margins, we reflect upon who we are and begin to imagine who we might become.

Our legacies include people of great wisdom, champions of justice and with immense fortitude.  People who convened in sweat lodges, hush harbors and retreat centers.  In these places they purified their spirits, nourished their souls, and conditioned their bodies for the battles ahead.  Together we remember how they too helped to build the spiritual foundation for a loving world.
