WITH LODRO RINZLER + ADREANNA LIMBACH

Join us for a rejuvenating weekend of meditation.

This retreat is designed to help you connect to a feeling of peace, reduce stress, and cultivate a deeper connection with yourself.

Over the course of the weekend, you will have a chance to go deeper with various meditation techniques, including breath awareness, walking meditation, and loving-kindness. You will also have opportunities to participate in talks by Lodro and Adreanna, supportive community discussions and leisurely and nutritious dinners taken as a community.

Our retreat is open to everyone who is looking for a meaningful and transformative experience. Join us for a weekend of self-care and self-discovery. We would love to have you join us for a weekend of community and practice on a few acres of heaven in the Hudson Valley, NY.

This intimate weekend meditation retreat is limited to 18 participants and will include both sitting and walking meditation practice, Buddhist talks, community discussion, plant-based meals, and leisure time to read, rest, and explore.

Think of this as a great opportunity to hit the refresh button as we move into whatever comes next — in nature and TOGETHER.

Brand new to meditation practice? Amazing! We would love to see you at a future retreat.

“I feel like the retreat with Adreanna and Lodro turbocharged my meditation practice.

Today, a few days post retreat, I just came back from walking my dog, where I actually noticed and enjoyed the smell of the damp morning earth and the feeling of the breeze on my arm - rather than looking down at my phone and trying to "get stuff done." I actually enjoyed those moments of my life. What a gift! Lodro and Adreanna gave talks that made the teachings both memorable and relatable. They also created a peaceful, welcoming environment. I'm so happy I was able to participate.”

“This was my first ever retreat and I was a little daunted by it going into the weekend.

That quickly dissolved as Adreanna and Lodro created a warm, friendly space where all of us quickly felt safe and taken care of. I walked away from this weekend with an incredible sense of peace and a new community of meditators.”
