About this trip

Retreat starts Friday with check in from 5pm-6pm (no dinner) Ends Sunday at 11am

 

The spring equinox is a time of perfect equilibrium between night and day.  It is the perfect time to reflect and focus on our balance, growth and renewal.  Please take this opportunity to practice mindful living, aligning yourself with the natural rhythms of earth, and move forward with a sense of reawakening, renewal, and rewilding. 

FACILITATOR BIO:

Jeannine Wonderling 


I started practicing yoga and meditation while entering into my middled-age years, as things were changing drastically in my life. The practice allowed me to feel stronger both mentally and physically, helped alleviate stress and anxiety, and helped me sleep more soundly each night. In addition to becoming a certified RYT 200 Yoga Instructor in 2023, I also started my study of Shinrin Yoku, or Forest Bathing. In October 2024, I became certified as a Forest Therapy Guide. I enjoy hiking and walking outdoors, sewing, theater, music and travel. I live in the Altoona area with my partner, my youngest daughter, and our two crazy goldendoodles

BETHANY RETREAT CENTER was established in 1982 by the Anawim Religious Community of Frenchville, Pennsylvania. It is a place apart to rest, renew and be recreated for those seeking a deeper relationship with God. Located on 140 acres of partially wooded land in the hills of Pennsylvania, the atmosphere is quiet and peaceful — only 15 miles off Interstate 80.

You just can't beat the serenity of the grounds and facilities. There is peace and quiet for reflection and spaces for community gathering. I was able to still the chatter in my mind for clarity and focus.

Our group truly enjoyed our time together and the lovely grounds even though you had experienced a lot of rain. We were blessed to have time outside to enjoy the labyrinth and walking around. The sitting area in the barn worked perfectly for us. The 23 new people were amazed by the buildings and all you do. As always we were blessed to be there.

I've been to several of Tom's drumming retreats - a few at Bethany Retreat Center. The energy is so clean and warm and loving. I can not recommend this enough. The lunch is great and the individuals that attend are all loving seekers. Definitely a 5-star experience!
