This 15-hour retreat focuses on Presence, Equanimity, Appreciation, Compassion and Ethical Engagement as practices that serve those who are entering the dying time of their life and their families.

These practices invite and uphold an atmosphere that is spacious, respectful and healing. In this context healing is wholeness, an inclusivity that allows one to engage with the fullness of the situation in a full hearted, wise and unarmored way. 

Join us in exploring these ways of being and practice embodying these qualities as fluid, enlivening ways to tend the dying time of life.

Our time together will include stories from the world’s wisdom traditions and contemporary stories from the field as well as teachings, meditations, journaling, breakout rooms and time to delve into the shared mystery of living and dying.
