Embodying Truth:
In the World But Not of It
June 12-16
with Anne Blanchard
& Rhoda Makled
Retreat Description
Peace Pilgrim once said, “It took the living quite a while to catch up with the believing, but of course it can, and now if I believe something, I live it.”
Nisargadatta Maharaj said, “Intellectually, you have understood, but you have to be one with it; you have to identify with what you have understood.”
At this retreat, you will learn to live from the spiritual knowledge that you believe and trust. You will look at what you value, assess if your values are aligned with your spiritual desire, and then learn how to bring your values and spiritual desire together into one strong foundation that you actually live, speak and act from.
Retreat Schedule
The retreat will begin on Monday at 9am and end by 3pm on Friday.

Spring Retreat in La Veta, CO
Featuring Regina Dawn Akers, Anne Blanchard and Cyndi Krupp
Dyad Retreat
May 15-19
With Anne Blanchard & Cyndi Krupp
This retreat is for everyone interested in an extremely deep experience of self-inquiry, regardless of whether you are new to self-inquiry or you’ve been practicing self-inquiry for years.
Psychologists have discovered that dyads (two people sharing in a structured way) are a powerful way of going deeper within one’s self in order to see that which is beyond one’s daily conscious awareness. At this retreat, we will utilize this same practice for the purpose of awakening.

Freedom From the Judge
March 24-26
with Jacquelyn Eckert
An Online Retreat
There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that you are not the voice of the mind – you are the one who hears it.’ ~ Michael Singer.
Whether we realize it or not, our lives are structured around pleasing what might be called our internal “judge” (aka, the ego or internal critic). In this retreat, we will learn to identify the judge, which is nothing more than a cluster of ideas, standards and beliefs. We will look at how this cluster of thought directs our actions, attention and aspirations.
You will learn to recognize that the voice of the judge is not your voice and learn how hearing this voice as “other” is helpful in discovering you are not your thoughts. We will also examine the ways in which we engage the judge even though we are attempting to disengage and, we will practice disengaging from the judge as a prerequisite to abiding in no-self.
Retreat Schedule
The retreat will begin at 10am ET (8am MT) and end at 5pm ET (3pm MT) each day. A 2-hour lunch period will be provided beginning about 1pm ET (11am MT).

Find the Constant ~ An Inspirational Article by Yvonne Unger
Do you know the desire for a familiar place, for an anchor, for a haven of peace? It is part of being human that we desire for this security. And it is part of the world that it is not able to fulfill this desire. Not now, not in the past, not in the future.
The constant lies beyond time and space. Beyond your perception, your thoughts and feelings. You cannot reach it with knowledge. Nobody can give it to you. There are no words for it, even though – for the sake of communication – we give it names like truth, absolute awareness, God or Tao. The only thing that can be reliably said about it: You can only experience it directly. Direct experience always happens in the present moment. Here and now. The more often you connect with this quality, the more it will carry you and the more you will be rooted in it.

Healing Through Yoga and Prayer ~ April 11-14, 2024 at the Retreat House
Healing Through Yoga and Prayer
Thursday – Sunday ~ April 11-14, 2024
With Jeff Bailey at the Awakening Together Retreat House
in La Veta, CO
Contrary to popular belief, yoga is not about the body. The word means “to join.” And while we try to join with the body, it is only in mind we join. To join is to heal, which makes yoga a gentle process of undoing the blockages and barriers to the awareness of Love’s Presence, our natural inheritance. In this fun, uplifting 4 day weekend of movement and conversation in La Veta, CO – where Avita Yoga got its name! – we’ll use the body in gentle, doable shapes to unwind patterns of tension, fear, and regret to get to the roots of our undoing so we can heal, join, and claim our Divinity.
Jeff has been a student of A Course In Miracles since 1990. One of its principle messages corresponds perfectly with The Yoga Sutras: to identify and resolve the obstacles to peace and lasting freedom. His consistent dedication to our shared, eternal truth has inspired Avita as a unique and healing approach to yoga. Jeff has found that yoga can heal almost anything with a reflective, self-forgiving approach.
Jeff is the founder of Avita Yoga. He has a long and diverse yoga background that began in 1985 in Gunnison, CO. The son of a rural veterinarian, Jeff developed an early appreciation for anatomy and physiology, both of which form a basis for the practical nature of a yoga practice. He can reduce the complexities of the body and mind to simple, understandable terms and works with people of all ages to relieve chronic pain and bring more joy to life.

Registration CLOSING TODAY:The Teachings of Ramana Maharshi
Registration closing TODAY.
Ramana Maharshi was born on December 30, 1879 in a village in Tamil, India. His father died when he was twelve, and he went to live with his uncle. At age 16, he experienced a sudden and extreme fear of death to which he responded by immediately seeking the truth of the Self and became Self-realized. Six weeks later he followed an inner calling and ran away to India’s holy hill, Arunachala, where he remained for the rest of his life. For years he was a silent ascetic. He spent many hours each day deep in samadhi. Years later he emerged from silence to share the wisdom of the True Self with those who came seeking it. Before the end of his life in 1950, thousands of people had come to him from all over the world. Ramana Maharshi became known as one of the greatest saints to have ever graced this planet with Presence.
