Description: Step into a retreat designed to awaken your sense of presence, wonder, playfulness, and connection. Rooted in the Japanese concept Ichigo Ichie – “one time, one meeting” – this experience invites you to honor the uniqueness of every moment and every encounter. Through meditation, reflection, gentle mindful movement, and laughter exercises, we will explore how to savor life’s fleeting beauty, tap into our playful sides, and cultivate deeper connection with ourselves and others. Expect a warm, playful, spacious atmosphere that blends quiet mindfulness with the energy of shared laughter. No meditation or laughter experience required – just a willingness to be here fully, just once, in this moment.
Fee: $50
