5 days of restful & reflective play with new (& old) friends

monday, december 28 - saturday, january 2; location TBD.

3200 B.C.E., newgrange ireland

a spiral was one of the first shapes ever carved into stone by humans

perhaps these early people were trying to capture the motion of a bird in flight, the path of the sun, the change of seasons

450 to 1450 A.D, arizona

one can’t help but imagine this geometry sacred to our species in its countless appearances across time and place

400 to 1400 A.D, taiwan

at the start of the Gregorian new year, we invite you to reflect on the spiral.

deep in the winter, we’ll gather in a special place among friends, old and new.

we’ll allow the spirals in our lives to reveal themselves: past, present, future.

and as a community, we’ll dance with the ludic — the playful, the aimless, the spontaneous.

over the course of 5 days, we hope to enjoy time together resting, reflecting, making, eating, dancing, and following simple desires.

we’ll explore questions together, such as:

• where are you in the spiral of your life? what is familiar, what you returning to? what are you departing from?
• what mythological spirals and quests are compelling you?
• where would you like to bring more play into your life?
• how can community support you in a nourishing reset for the new year?

unspooling into the new year… ꩜

all that you touch becomes transformed…

we (Olivia and kyle) have been deeply impacted by retreats, containers of special worldbuilding

in a structure like this, much more becomes possible, our attention reaches new places, our relationship with routine is refreshed
