"Hurry Up and Slow Down" online retreat registration is open

A six-week online retreat
from April 14 to May 26, 2013


We are offering "Hurry Up and Slow Down" again this spring!

Registration is open.
Full information is here.

Each week of this retreat has an anchoring theme:
mindfulness, breath, place,  
time, community, earth

Simple, accessible, with minimal reading (it's a spiritual retreat accompanying your daily life, not a class), gently focused on practice, with spiritual exercises. 

This retreat is suitable for those who are religiously affiliated as well as for those who consider themselves spiritual, but not religious.  

If you think you don't have time for "Hurry Up and Slow Down," you're exactly the person who will benefit from it. 

Cost: $150. ($125 for those who register by April 2; sliding scale for those in financial hardship.)

As always, write readwithredmont@earthlink.net once you have read the description, if you would like to register or if you have any questions or concerns. Welcome to the slow path.

The "Hurry Up and Slow Down" retreat was one of the most valuable I have ever experienced, because, it encourages the participants to take nuggets of time on a regular basis for guided reflection and renewal, rather than trying to devote a whole weekend or several evenings to the pursuit. It's well done and well worth the time commitment as well as the money.

Thanks, Joanne! May I quote you on this website and in other publicity materials? Let me know via e-mail.

Last fall, when I felt as if I had NO TIME, and I mean NONE, to do anything, because I was so busy, I signed up for this retreat.

What a big gift I gave myself... I did not have much time, so having some focused time to replenish my spirit was great.

Highly recommended!
