  • In general, guests and some staff enjoy their meals together. We facilitate a nice social atmosphere where you can make connections with like-minded people and be uplifted by insightful, inspiring conversations. Many guests find this to be one of the most enjoyable aspects of their retreat.

    We ask everyone to keep the conversations light and positive, and to remain sensitive to other guests, as everyone is going through their unique healing process. Please stay away from controversial or provocative topics.

    That being said, there is no pressure to socialize. We are here to cater to your needs, and you are always welcome to enjoy your meals alone/in silence.
