Milena’s letter before that retreat
You hold so much, every day. These five days, you are held.
Work, family, the people who rely on you — you carry it well. But somewhere on that list your own name keeps slipping to the bottom.
I gathered this retreat so you don’t have to arrange a single thing: the mountain, the practices, the women beside you, the food on the table, the road there and back. Your only task is to arrive.

The table
Unhurried shared meals and real conversation.
