Back from the retreat

Packing boxes

I’m back from my magical retreat with a lot to think about.

A retreat is not a vacation—particularly not a retreat you’re putting on. I need to remember that.

We go to a location I love, out in the forest among cedar trees, doing ritual by herb and flower gardens. The grounds host a pond, a hot tub, and a house with a wraparound porch.

But it’s not a bed-and-breakfast visit, rather an opportunity to do spiritual work.
