Indoor/Outdoor Weekend Spiritual Retreats 
in the Mountains of NE Georgia

Sometimes we reach a point when we know that what we really need is to make a strategic withdrawal from daily routine in order to delve into solitude, silence and stillness. 

All our mountain retreats are designed to help you fulfill those yearnings among a temporary spiritual community of fascinating, like-hearted souls who are also enhancing their appreciation of the sanctity of nature through the healing power and guidance of sacred poses from Crete. 

Because each retreat presents themes and information that corresponds with the changing seasons of the soul, the content of each retreat is constantly changing.

Withdrawal and Severance

Every effective spiritual initiation begins with severance: separation from famililar routines. 

Deliberately choosing to spend time in conditions unlike what you're used to, helps you see your life from a clearer perspective, especially if you are an urban dweller who longs to spend more time in wild nature. 

Once your awareness becomes grounded, your animal self is re-awakened and brought back to center; you're able to return to your daily life with renewed vision and a greater sense of purpose.

Create Your Own Spiritual Retreat

We offer a variety of ways to interact with wilderness experiences with a range of options: solo/group;indoors/outdoors; workshops open to the public/special events customized for your group/organization/family. Join us for a weekend event at a retreat center, or ask about the many ways we can facilitate your being able to safely experience a wilderness setting. 

Skilled Facilitation

All our wilderness experiences include experienced, discreet, feedback and guidance designed to help you generate or refine a spiritual action plan for the next phase of your life.

What people are saying about Robinette...

”I recommend Robinette Kennedy as the most highly informed and effective teacher, theorist, and practitioner of neo-shamanism I know. I have participated in a few of Dr. Kennedy’s workshops, including inviting her to present her research in my religion courses at Emory University.  She also led a fascinating tour of our own Carlos Museum on campus, introducing us to archaic shamanic figurines across a diversity of cultures.”
