Join some of Inner Traditions’ most renowned authors for this wide-ranging retreat designed to explore spiritual and healing traditions from around the world, both ancient and modern.
Individual sessions throughout the weekend cover a variety of fascinating and practical topics, including indigenous cultures, perennial philosophy, Eastern spiritual practices, sustainability, herbal remedies, shamanism, and systems theory. We tap into these topics as we rethink our values and priorities, and shape the transformation of our culture in the direction of a holistic worldview and global sustainability, which are required in the 21st century.
