Retreats & Circles

Come: refresh for a while.

In the ancient tradition, those who sought renewal withdrew from the noise of ordinary life, not to escape it, but to return to it more fully themselves. These gatherings are an invitation to do the same.

Sacred space for the journey inward

Retreats and circles offer something that one-on-one work cannot — the particular grace of being held by a community of fellow seekers. There is a wisdom that arises only in the presence of others who are also willing to go deep.

All gatherings are held with care, intention, and a deep respect for the pace and wisdom of each person present. No prior experience is necessary — only a willingness to show up.

Upcoming gatherings

All events are held in small, intentional groups. Spaces are limited.

Ongoing circles

In addition to seasonal retreats, I facilitate small ongoing circles — monthly gatherings for women who wish to tend their inner life in community. Circles meet in person in the Toronto area and online. If you are interested in joining an ongoing circle, please reach out.

Private & custom retreats

I also offer privately facilitated retreats for small groups — spiritual communities, friend groups, or organizations seeking a day or weekend of renewal. These are designed in collaboration with you, shaped around your community's needs and intentions.
