Location & Dates
Wautoma Wisconsin, July 25-28, 2024

Overview
This retreat is open to advanced students and participants from Circles of Four. In service to our wholeness, we will practice and bring presence to moving, inner witnessing and perhaps speaking witnessing. We will offer times for reflections, insights and questions. Our hope is to support ongoing development of a compassionate inner witness inviting all aspects of Self to unfold, flourish, and be welcomed into community.

The Retreat is located on the edge of beautiful Marl Lake just outside of Wautoma Wisconsin. This setting offers time for contemplation and connection to the nature around us and within. As we work together at the lake house we will be discerning how to navigate silence and connection. We’ve created a rhythm where there will be opportunities for rest, hiking the nearby trails, swimming and kayaking.

Cost: $750 (scholarships available)

Lodging: 5 beds and 2 shared baths at the cabin for ($150 for 3 nights) camping onsite is also available or at local hotels nearby.
