The House of One People Retreat Center - House of Refuge for the Wounded Healer, in addition to the main house, will consist of cottages and low buildings built in keeping with the terrain and natural habitat of the area and will offer respite, contemplative practice, meditation, yoga and opportunities to share teachings for the novice and master alike. The Wisdom of the Circle, as developed by th
e Zen Peacemaker Circle and the Global Peacemaker Community is one of the forms of practice and teaching that will be offered there -- as well as The Way of Council. Guests will be able to choose from one-day seminars to longer residency programs that can include practice of “Right Livelihood,” samu or work practice, or a combination of these options. The Center will live and practice with the land seeking always to give back to the land and countryside. We will form an active part in the community and include our neighbors in all we do. The center will be non-sectarian and welcome people from all paths in a spirit of unity and oneness. Guests will find a regular schedule of workshops, lectures, and talks by master teachers from many backgrounds, daily meditation, classes in health and nutrition, herb gardening, natural healing modalities, plus a full program in Artful Expression seminars. The Wounded Healer Program will be especially attractive to those who work in the helping and healing professions particularly when they need to come in from the rain for a spell and recharge their batteries. Our program on Living and Dying are One will invite participants to explore the possibility of a seamless cloth wrapping around these two events of life.
