This retreat offers teens, age 15-19,
a life transforming experience in the
serenity of nature.
Come unplug and tune in! Participants on our
retreats learn self-awareness, mindful communi-
cation, and techniques to calm and focus the
mind - the foundations for success in all areas of
life. We spend time each day learning mindulness
meditation - a scientifically proven practice that
builds emotional resilience, inner strength and
well being.
Teens also participate in small group discussions,
yoga and creative workshops - including arts,
nature, and mindful sports activities. And there’s
lots of free time to connect with new friends in a
safe and accepting space. Many hesitant teens
walk away saying it was one of the best experi-
ences of their lives.
This retreat welcomes teens from all racial/ethnic
groups, sex and gender identities, abilities, and
religions. Mindfulness creates a foundation for
conversations that support understanding and
deepen our connection to one another.
Price: $35-$1250. Guideline is 1% of annual family income.
No teen has ever been turned away for lack of funds.
