Join dharma teacher and author Deborah Eden Tull for a weekend retreat exploring the true invitation of darkness, and the essential partnership between light and dark as a radical pathway to wholeness - in ourselves and in our world. With a restorative evening on Friday and an all-day gathering on Saturday, engage in guided meditation, experiential teaching, and facilitated group discussion to inspire personal and collective transformation.

As our world changes physically and socio-politically, and more people feel uprooted by global uncertainty, more of us are ready to dream a bigger dream for humanity. One of the gifts of uncertainty is that it requires us to recognize and let go of unconscious biases that have been passed down for generations. These include the perception that splits into opposites and values light over dark, speed over slowing down, productivity over attunement, and expression over receptivity. Awakening requires that we soften the habit of binary perception and restore our natural capacity to see clearly with the heart.

Embodied meditation bridges the power of dark and light, yin and yang, the receptive and expressive aspects of our nature. Dark and light naturally exist in dynamic balance together. This can be difficult to grasp from binary perception, which continually insists that we see through the binary lens. We yearn for restoration and the sustained quality of presence that affirms our belonging to ourselves, each other, and our planet. Join us for this day-long retreat exploring the power in meditation that returns us to our bodies and restores balance to our divided perceptions.
