REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for your interest in our February Open Practice Intensive! We are using a different registration system than usual to allow people to choose the number of nights they wish to stay.

When you click on the Register Here button, you will first be asked to choose the dates of your stay. When you enter the check-in date, the check out-date will automatically adjust to that five-night minimum. If you would like to stay longer, please change the check out date. The number to the right of the check-out date box shows the number of nights you will be charged for.

Then choose between a room at Wonderwell or attending as a commuter. If any of the rooms are marked “sold out” for those dates, please choose different dates until you find an open room.

We hope that you find this registration easy to use, but if you have any problems, please contact us at register@naturaldharma.org. Thank you!


ROOMS FOR THE FEBRUARY OPEN PRACTICE INTENSIVE

For the February Open Practice Intensive, all rooms are private except for rooms in the dorm, but you will not have a choice between an ensuite or hall bathroom. Please email the registrar at register@naturaldharma.org if you require an ensuite bathroom for medical reasons.

Couples or friends may share a room if they wish. Please register only one person and then email register@naturaldharma.org to make arrangements for registering the second person.


SCHOLARSHIPS

Wonderwell Mountain Refuge strives to offer retreats in a manner that is inclusive for persons of all means. If the full cost of the Winter Meditation Intensive would create an undue financial burden, we encourage you to apply for a scholarship.
