Retreat Overview:
  We will gather on a "significant indigenous landscape" of the local community in the safe and nurturing council of the Listening Circle. The Littlebirds and Dr. Valerio will share spiritual precepts rooted in the ancient wisdom traditions of the indigenous Celtic people and tribal American Indians through experiential listening to the "voice in the land" and guided story-working as we encounter our individual and collective "Origin" stories. As we come alongside these inspirational teachers on this listening journey, we bear witness to an untold, unheard oral history which connects past, present and future and are challenged to cultivate a deeper relationship to place to discover our own listening ground for living in concert with the land, to one another and all relations at this critical hour on earth. 
​ 
"Land has a silent memory and can offer that immediate threshold to tap into the roots of our ancient self. As we listen to the voice in the land and share our stories, one to another, we are mindful that every step we take is a prayer. A prayer that leaves an indelible imprint of who we are on the land to which we belong".
