We will gather in retreat during the renewing energy of Spring, immersed in the beauty of the Abode in the Berkshire Mountains. Together, we attune to the sacred wisdom of Nature, seeing through the eyes of Sophia - the creative feminine - and drawing from the earth-based, alchemical, and Ziraat teachings of Hazrat Inayat Khan. Through meditations in nature and elemental and astrological walks and dances, we deepen our relationship with the living universe and the archangelic presence of the elements.

The retreat weaves Sufi and Buddhist practices to purify the heart, awaken the natural self, and explore the alchemy of the soul’s journey. As we reconnect with our essential nature, we clarify our purpose and affirm our participation in an earth of beauty. This retreat is open to all, whether new to spiritual practice or deeply experienced.
