To Breathe Is Nearly 
A Radical Act Today

Imagine a weekend where we come together as a community to practice staying mindfully present, as well as explore what’s hard to experience in our times. 

Our vision to gather, pause, and practice as a community in the forest we’ve restored and regenerated has come true and we are growing with it.

Announcing our October Great Reveal!

The Patch Awaken In Nature Daylong Retreat includes
 a 3-day, 2 night stay at our TreeHouse,
two minutes from Patch.
You can now literally “awaken in nature” amongst a tiny forest.

Listening to the waterfall of the Florida aquifer wading pool.

All while staying in an architectural wonder.

The octagonal, 8-sided TreeHouse is built of cedar, pine, flagstone, steel, and glass.

Like the Eightfold Path of Wisdom within the Buddhist tradition.

This Retreat home creates a centered balance of living.
Sit courageously.
Radically choose not to run away.
This is all about checking in versus checking out.

Connection To Self

Many of us are experiencing mental challenges of overwhelm, burnout & anxiety. Our coping tools might create distance between our actual experience and the heart we so long to express in the world.

Connection to Others

Collectively we’re in the throes of a loneliness epidemic, yet have digital devices we touch more than those we love each day. Finding healing, soothing, safe spaces in relationship is needed now as an antidote to these challenging chapters on Earth.

Connection To Nature

More humans live in urban centers than green ones for the 1st time in history. Many suffer from “Nature Deficit Disorder” and miss the benefits of taking The Nature Pill, yet are nourished and calmed, replenished and rested when we do.

  • 1 second let the breath gently circulate inside.
  • 8 seconds of exhalation, pursing your lips.
  • 10 cycles of 6-1-8 anti-anxiety breathing slows your roll.
