Where are "WE" now?

An ONLINE Couples Mindfulness Weekend

Registration closes at 5:30 pm on Oct. 22. Don’t delay!

The retreat is only open to couples, but each person must register separately. Please put your partner’s name in the box on the registration page.

After nearly a year and a half of imposed quarantining and social distancing, many relationships are struggling to re-establish new footing. Yes, some relationships have blossomed in this intimate time but others have shown signs of strain or felt hemmed in living in such close quarters. So now what? Where do we go from here?

Well, before you do anything rash, we think now is the time to do a much needed reset! Let’s check in and see how you are, how the two of you are, and what you each need now, both alone and together.  Who are you now and what do you need–for yourself and for the relationship? Let’s recalibrate and recommit to practicing mindful communication as we traverse the rapids of this life!

This weekend is for you! It is online so that those near and far can attend. In the privacy of your home, in the place where most of your relational life happens, let’s together find our way to center!

This retreat is for people who identify as a couple. No other requirements needed!

Short talks, guided meditations and exercises will support couples to do their work in the privacy of dyads. Sharing is optional. No one will be put on the spot.

Both partners must be in attendance for the duration of the program.

PROGRAM COST – It is Natural Dharma Fellowship’s aspiration that no one be turned away from our teachings and retreats because they are unable to pay the full cost. In order make our courses affordable for all who wish to attend, we are offering a three-level fee structure that takes into account people’s differing financial circumstances:

• Benefactor – for those who can afford it, this fee level helps provide support for those with limited financial resources and assists with the care and maintenance of Wonderwell Mountain Refuge
• Program fee – for those who can cover the basic cost of a retreat or course
• Supported – for those with limited financial resources or recent financial hardship

The amounts listed are suggestions. You may write in any amount that fits your financial situation. Any amount offered above the Course Fee level will be considered a tax-deductible donation and will be acknowledged as such.
