We’re closing out the 2020 late Fall retreat season this weekend and preparing to head into Winter. For folks in need of little respite from the normal Holiday pressures as well as some of the abnormal oddness of the year, you can join us for Ceremony this weekend as we’d love to have you. Then, as always, from Christmas through sometime around the Lunar New Year or Tet in February we’ll be away on Winter Break, but back for the 2021 Retreat season with our Winter Noble Silence Meditation Retreat the weekend of February 26th-February28th. Then you’ll gain a better understand of some of the colorful hieroglyphics on the board above, logographic script, some in pictographic form and in a way reminiscent of Egyptian and other ancient writing systems, basically pointing the way to purified, unconditional human happiness.

But please don’t just take our word for it; consider what Emily had to say about taking part in our recent Ceremonial overnight. And look for the time in your own life for a visit, visits so many report as extremely peaceful and rejuvenating during such trying external times. We’ll be here, continuing to sharpen and offer psycho-spiritual tools for connecting to oneself, fostering one’s inner spirit and connecting to the collective consciousness. “Being a part of the Ceremony weekend was truly a great experience. From forming new friendships, practicing meditation and taking in Paul’s drumming and singing, I am forever grateful. I went into the sweat lodge with uncertainty and a little fear. I came out of the sweat lodge on a path to healing and self-worth. I look forward to the next time at Higher Haven. Mitakuye O’yasin! -E.F.
