Warm your heart this cold winter through connection with community and nature during this teacher-led, half-day Mindfulness Retreat at Hollis Renewal Center. This retreat is open to the general public but also serves as a celebration of MAM's birthday and the opening retreat for our 200-Hour Mindfulness Teacher Training Program. We will engage in companionable silence as we sit by a roaring fire, savor the forested trails (if the weather allows) and enjoy a variety guided practices designed to deepen your mindfulness practice.

When: Sunday January 14, 2024 from 1-5 pm


Where: 

Hollis Renewal Center Lodge 11414 Kansas Ave, Kansas City, KS 66111 (In the case of dangerous driving weather we will move the online via Zoom and let you know by the morning of the retreat)


Cost: 
  • FREE for MAM teachers and Mindfulness Teacher Training Program trainees and past graduates (use discount code MAM100 at checkout)
  • $40 (MAM members save 20% by entering discount code MEMBERS20 at checkout - save by becoming a member https://mindfulness-alliance.org/membership/. In accordance with our value of generosity, those with extreme financial need are welcome to use our "Pay What You Can" pass which you should purchase first before registering)

What to bring:

  • refillable beverage container - we will have tea, hot cocoa and a special treat

  • meditation cushion  if desired (chairs are available at the lodge)

  • blanket and other cozy items

  • a journal and a writing utensil if that is part of your practice

  • There will be a time for drumming during our retreat, so if you have a drum or other rhythm instrument to use or share, please bring it with you.  Don't worry if you don't have your own drum, though.  We will have some instruments for sharing, and there are hands to clap, and feet to stomp!

Please dress comfortably and accordingly for the weather. There will be an option to walk the wooded trails, so you will want to wear comfortable shoes. 

All of our classes are scheduled in the US Central time zone. Pre-registration is required so we can plan accordingly. No refunds the day of the event or thereafter. The teacher may choose to cancel the retreat in the event of under-enrollment - if this happens registrants will receive a full refund.
