“I got to come home to myself in this retreat.”

“This retreat helped me understand the purpose of meditation, rest, quiet and silence.”

N.P., Seattle

“I loved and enjoyed the teachings with Grace, the concept of embracing fear, and a new perspective on non-duality. This is the first time in nearly 10 years that I didn’t look at a screen, read or constantly do something. I got to disconnect in silence this weekend.”

Retreat Testimonials

  • “The food was delicious and changed my perspective on what eating without meat could look like. Not having done a silent retreat before, I didn’t know what to expect. This exceeded my wildest expectations.”

    — Michael

  • “Thank you for this wild ride and new chapter of expansion in my life. My heart tells me that the real, true meanings of these teachings and techniques will come over time.”

    — Sue

  • "This retreat reframed my need for others to experience a deep connection and supported me in forming a more secure attachment with myself. I’m so grateful you hold this space."

    — Jodi

  • "This retreat changed my perspective about what meditation is, from a rigid “follow the rules and you will be spiritual” to “here are some tools but feel free to get there on your own pace, in your own way.” I really appreciate how supported you all made me feel and I was comfortable to be myself. I have learned more about my inner-self in these 4 days than I have trying to meditate on my own for months. The teachings seemed to speak exactly to what I needed to hear. And the food was delicious and made me feel loved."

    — Carla

  • "To be in a group of people living and working/practicing together with total respect of the silence and each other was truly impressive."

    — Sara

  • "This retreat helped me to reframe trauma. My brain just “re-wrote” a few deeply painful memories, just as Grace described it could. It felt so liberating and joyful to let go of that pain. So grateful for this beautiful experience, a weekend of loving self-care and having your radiant spirit as my mentor and guide."

    — Allyson

  • "I would like to express my gratitude for co-creating a very moving and transformative experience. Grace has the voice of an angel – inviting, encouraging, welcoming, and soothing. They are a beautiful vessel for which these teachings flow through. Their work is a blessing to many and I am so incredibly grateful. Dianna’s cooking was so deeply nourishing and healing. Each meal was an experience of its own, with surprising flavors, joyful textures and a delightful wonder to each of my senses."

  • "The food was spectacular!"

    — Kimberly

  • "Most of the people I know spend their time and money to get away to a resort where they can drink until they forget where they have to return to. I chose to sit in a yurt in winter, looking for something that was literally beating inside me. I made a good choice. This retreat showed me a better way to live. I feel lighter and freer."

    — Louie

  • "This retreat helped me reframe how I see myself in the world. I was a dark period this year. Being here has helped me see that I am not alone, and there are kindred spirits in this world. I have more tools in my toolbox after this weekend. Thank you."

    —Jen

    — Marisol

  • "I understand from this retreat that only I can make space to learn, explore and discover Who I Am. I’ve experienced very new and curious moments that I’ve never had before. It has given me a desire to get on my mat and contemplate more about Who I Am. What a gift!"

    — DJ

  • "The most powerful tool I received in this retreat was the practice of sublimating emotions, thoughts, and traumas into Pure Consciousness."

    — Michelle

  • "This retreat offered a reframe around my relationship with pain and emotion. That I can experience these things from a Witness perspective without attachment to the narrative my mind makes about them. I can also witness the narrative without judgement."

    — Jess

  • "Thank you for all of your real-life stories and the Q&A sessions. This retreat reminded me that I am the ocean, not the waves. "

    — Lydia

  • "Too often I forget myself in the not-compassionate way, and these teachings always bring me back to compassion. I was reminded this weekend that I need a foundation of self-compassion to build my practice of compassion for others. The compassion teaching also helped me to soften my resistance during the retreat."

    — Maggie

  • "Thank you for a wonderful weekend. I’m already considering where else I can find silence in my day-to-day life. "

    — L
