Activity 2

Soul sanctuary - 32 people served - 4 sessions - stone circles' soul sanctuary retreat program for activists was born of the need to help move the culture of social justice work toward greater sustainability and effectiveness by supporting the self-care needs of individual activists and organizers. The movement-wide impact of overwork, exhaustion, stress and cynicism has left many activists hungering for a way of living that nourishes the mind, body and soul as it nurtures the world. Our five-day, self-directed retreats are offered every other month at our retreat center, the stone house, to provide social change practitioners opportunities for rest, fellowship and community; the chance to identify their particular needs for sustenance and rejuvenation; guidance in awareness practices of meditation and yoga; time in the garden, art studio, and on the land; and the enjoyment of home-cooked, locally grown food. Soul sanctuary is free of charge for all participants, enabling a wide range of people the ability to access and enjoy the program. In august 2011, we offered our first-ever soul sanctuary for artists, to specifically address the needs of artist/activities.
