our time together
Jan’s work is an exploration of the relationship between personal healing and mysticism. Her work offers an opportunity to anchor to a deeper substratum within, finding an inner place where we can begin to take refuge. During our time together we will:
Chant and Meditate (meditations are no longer than 20 minutes)
Explore spiritual and psychological teachings, including a framework for better understanding the levels of consciousness
Explore whatever you bring into circle from your daily life
Offer healing work that includes shamanic, ancestral and lineage work.

structure of retreat
The retreat will begin Thursday, May 2nd, 6:30pm - 9:00pm. We ask that you arrive by 6pm so that you are settled and ready to go at 6:30pm. The opening session is very important, as it will set the tone for the rest of the retreat.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, we will meet from 10am - 6:30pm.
We ask that people stay from beginning to end, so that we can hold a tight container for all.
Food
Lunch and an afternoon snack will be provided each day.
Electronics
While there may be times when it is necessary to stay connected to the outside world, it is important to minimize this. Retreats, at their best, provide an opportunity to “unplug.” If you are in a position to do so, you may want to minimize your screen time or leave a message that indicates that you will be out of reach so that you can truly detach from the outside world.
integration time
After retreat, it is important to allow yourself time to absorb, integrate, and digest your experience. For this reason, we encourage you to build in some time after the retreat to simply let down.
