Guides: what to know before you go
4 quiet reads for the weeks before a retreat: choosing one, packing for it, and 2 places of power, Mount Shasta and the Sedona vortexes.
All guides
I write these guides from 16 retreats since 2023, in Miami, Kauai, Mount Shasta and Sedona. Read the first while you are still choosing and have paid nothing yet. Open the second a week before the flight, when the bag comes out of the closet.
The other 2 are about places of power. Mount Shasta, where we spent September 2026, and the Sedona vortexes we walked in October: where they are, how to reach them, and how we practise there.
