Just being on HI’s serene 400-acre wooded campus is good for the soul—being in nature\, exploring the walking and hiking trails\, sitting by the pond\, meditating in the Sri Vidya shrine\, enjoying healthy\, freshly prepared vegetarian meals\, perhaps getting a massage\, and let’s not forget the Moka coffee and chocolate factory! But that’s just the beginning. Nourish – Ground – Restore – that’s what this getaway is all about\, and we have a fantastic ensemble of teachers and programs to help us achieve just that. \nSurrounded by a supportive community\, our weekend together features reflective discussions\, guided asana (suitable for all levels)\, breathwork\, and relaxation to cultivate a deep sense of calm and well-being. Enjoy “mocktails” upon arrival\, kirtan (live music) on Saturday night\, and a magical closing fire ceremony on the Sound of Music Hill (weather permitting). \nPoints to ponder:\n\nHow do we restore and maintain our vibrant nature\, regardless of life’s circumstances?\nWhat are we not seeing because we’re seeing what we’re seeing? (It’s a conundrum!)\nWhere can we soften to gain more clarity and strength?\n\n…Answers to these questions and more will be revealed at this retreat! Join us\, won’t you? \nTuition: EARLY BIRD $199 (plus accommodations) when you register by September 30\, 2025\n(save $50—regular price: $249). Booked with HI Buffalo \nAccommodations: Starting at $120/night (includes meals). Booked with the HI Retreat Center/Honesdale\, PA \nQuestions? Please call us at (716) 883-2223 or email info@hibuffalo.org – We’re happy to help. \nNeed a ride? If you live in the WNY area and are looking to ride-share\, please let us know!
