General Practice Week in late Spring

We warmly welcome you to join the flow of the residential community and together, to cultivate the art of walking, sitting, eating, working, and listening to ourselves and others with true presence and love.

We will be open to receive guests starting Friday 21 April and will continue to receive guests each week on Fridays. Friday will also be our departure day. Please plan your retreat carefully so that you can arrive and depart on Friday.

Please note that unlike the themed retreatsgeneral practice week retreatants will mostly follow the activities of the residential community. There will also be sessions designed to suit retreatants who are new to the practice.
