Join us for our 7-day Loving Where You Are retreat online! Physical-distance doesn't have to keep us from coming together and doing our work. 

Here is what some of the participants had to say about our time together:

“I felt so connected to everyone. I loved how we had this online bubble that was just ours. It was so nourishing and I loved going back to my everyday life, noticing how I could apply my practice. I felt completely supported.”

“I was able to go just as deep if not deeper in this online format. Everything felt very supportive. I highly recommend it.”

“Loved every minute of it. Susan and Sarah-Maya, thank you for creating such a safe, supportive and loving space to land and welcome all. I look forward to the next one.”

We are thrilled to offer another weeklong retreat this Spring where we will have space and time to meet anything that arises. Bring your heartache, your stress, the areas of your life where you feel stuck - this is the time to inquire into what is yearning to be sat with. 

With a combination of group, individual and partner work, we will dive into this practice of inquiry and test it. There will be a 2-hour break between the two daily sessions and breaks for movement and tea weaved throughout allowing for ease and comfort during this online retreat.

Please note, when you sign up for this offering you are committing to showing up for every session.
An intimate gathering with space and time to address what keeps you stuck.

“Thank you for the beautiful retreat. It was an amazing experience and I really never imagined it could be so deep and profound, being an online event. I had thoughts it was going to be difficult to follow through Zoom, and it wasn't at all."

Relationships, body, sexuality, health, work, finances...what if peace of mind is available in the midst of it all?
​
​This retreat is a space to meet everything and anything that appears to stand in the way of living a free life.
“Love love love love. You guys light the way. Your courage, strength, humility, light and love held and inspired me. Pure joy. You two have done your Work. This enables you to transmit the information effectively and hold an incredibly strong (and gentle) space. Great mini-school and intro to The Work.”

Testimonials for Loving Where You Are online

"This kind of space, where you are not trying to teach anything but sharing from your experience and holding us together to do The Work, for me was so valuable. Feeling so blessed right now, I will treasure this past week in my heart."
Veronica, Mexico

“This was such safe and inviting space to bring even the parts of me that I never want to be seen. Being met with such kindness, directness and openness inspires me to show up for myself like this as well. “
Jim Lundeen, USA

“I loved the whole course, but most appreciated was the kind and loving guidance provided by Susan and Sarah-Maya. They are both open, honest and lovely people, sharing their experience and thoughts while at the same time leaving each of us the room to find our own inquiry.”
Abby McDowell, USA

“Was a nice surprise to discover how helpful the zoom format turned out to be for bringing what was worked on in class into my home life. The back and forth added a whole new dimension. The classes took me close enough to the visceral depth of an in-person multi day retreat that I could then be immediately confronted with the real time challenge of living what we were working on. From that experience, more grist for the mill for the class that followed, and so on. There was a palpable feeling of love, connection, and willingness to go deep. Nothing left out.”
David B., USA

“I didn't think I would enjoy a zoom workshop as much as I did and I didn't think that this particular event would work well online…I was very pleasantly surprised :) I appreciated the opportunity for deeper practice and loved the overall tone of the workshop. Sarah-Maya and Susan have such a beautiful dynamic and compliment each other so beautifully. The way that each question was addressed so consciously and carefully was also beautiful, insightful and helpful.”
Asha, South Africa
​
“It's amazing and life changing. I leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and more clear. You two are able to hold space, track what is being said, and then provide profound insights in a way that's very comprehensible. I like that there was no travel and that my life was incorporated and challenged while I was at the retreat.”
Vlada Bortnik, USA

“I was able to go just as deep if not deeper in this online format. Everything felt very supportive. I highly recommend it.”
