  • Shifting Landscapes Retreat in England

    June 29 - July 2, 2023

    We have arrived at a threshold: a liminal space where the world we have known is coming undone and new configurations are still taking shape. In this moment of great loss, possibility, and transformation, what are the stories we need to orient ourselves within our shifting landscapes?

    Set in the beautiful countryside of South West England along the River Dart, this four-day, three-night, retreat with Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee will offer participants ways of engaging with and navigating our present moment of unprecedented transformation.

    Hosted by Emergence Magazine, this gathering will consider how Earth’s ancient patterns and pathways are changing rapidly, how cultural landscapes are undergoing seismic shifts, and how outdated myths are being discarded. Through lived experiences—talks, meditation, nature connection practices, walking meditation, writing workshops, and a special film screening—we will witness ways in which the world we have known is coming undone, and listen for the new stories that are emerging.
