Connection to Self Connection to Other Connection to Nature
Connection is at the center of all Heartwood programming. While disconnection is the source of much human suffering, it is through connection that we can begin to engage in a meaningful life.

About
Heartwood’s day-long retreats give participants an opportunity to connect genuinely, while working through life cycle specific challenges. Through mindfulness practices, therapeutic processing, communication modalities, and skill building; we aim to promote self- attunement, self-trust, empowerment, connection, and compassion. Our retreats offer a nonjudgmental and open space, and are led by certified mindfulness teachers and licensed clinicians. Our goal is for all participants to walk away with a deeper understanding of themselves, a greater connection to the world around them, and new meaningful relationships in their community.
Heartwood retreats are held in and around the Berkshire Mountains, and the Pioneer Valley. Location is determined per retreat. Please see specific retreat details for more information.
