    Differences and Similarities between the retreat formats<\/h2>\n

    \"\"The difference between the various offers lies in the level of programming (or scheduling) you get on each retreat, and\/or the personal attention you will be getting from us. The month-long retreat has minimal scheduling (only 2 hours weekly being required, which is attendance at the PRL Course<\/a>). The 10-day retreat has 4-6 hours a day of programming, plus participant-led events. The 3-day retreats have programming for 10 hours per day on the first two days, with the third day open to participant-led programs, recreation and\/or Circling<\/a>. You may request 1:1 sessions of bodywork or coaching for individuals and couples as an extra layer of support, at an additional cost<\/p>\n

    All retreats, regardless of duration are designed as immersive experiences in community. The permanent members of the community will participate in your retreat if they can. The retreats have scheduled classes and activities, but beyond that we encourage retreat participants to make their own offers, teach classes, organize fun things to do, etc., to whatever extent is possible within the schedule. Meaning that, the programming is not fixed, it is “emergent” according to the desires and skillsets of each person in the retreat. We call this “an experimental community of love in action<\/em>” or maybe “a community of fun, love and transformation<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

    3-day and 10-day retreats are catered (3 meals per day). The month-long retreat you are responsible for breakfast and lunch and have an option to join our cooking collective<\/a> for dinner.<\/p>\n

    Retreat Formats<\/h2>\n

    \"\"1. The month-long retreat<\/h3>\n

    The month-long retreat is the pre-requisite to becoming a permanent member<\/a>, however you are welcome to come and experience a month-long “Authentic Relating vacation” lived in community, even if you have not the desire or possibility to join us permanently.<\/p>\n

    The month-long retreat immersion is the least structured of all our retreats, and also the most affordable (see Pricing<\/a>). Your only commitment \/ obligation is to attend our weekly PRL session<\/a> (which may be conducted with local participants in town), and our weekly all-hands community organizational meeting, which is simply syncing-up about what’s going on, organizing our cooking collective<\/a> (if you choose to participate in that), and scheduling fun things to do together.<\/p>\n

    2. The 10-day retreat<\/h3>\n

    \"\"We are tentatively scheduling our first 10-day retreat in the second half of April 2024, or else in May 2024. The schedule will include, at minimum:<\/p>\n
