A personal invitation from Narayan & Christina
Over decades, we have been delighted to walk the path of awakening with other women through the annual women’s retreat at IMS. The community of women who have participated in this retreat over time have been a source of inspiration and refuge for us and so many of our alumni. It has been a rich and enlivening journey, and we have been honored to have been part of your lives through this extraordinary retreat. To create even more space for women who wish to join our community, we are now committed to continuing this offering through the addition of an annual online retreat, open to all those who have participated in the women’s retreat in the past and to any new students who feel called to add their voices and hearts to the circle.
Our four-day online retreat offers meditation guidance, periods of sitting and walking meditation, opportunities for reflection, and small group meetings with the teachers as we explore what it means to awaken together. We encourage you to approach this online retreat as you would approach an on-campus silent retreat, arranging the conditions of your life to support a silent retreat and committing to attend all sessions, as possible. To prevent Zoom fatigue, and to accommodate the time differences between the US and the UK, our days will be slightly shorter than usual, but the potency of our togetherness will be as strong as ever. We hope you will join us this October for Women on the Path.
