​COMMON QUESTIONS

When should I arrive?  When are we finished?
Arrive between 1 and 2 pm only.  Please not before or after.  Allow extra driving time for weekend traffic in the mountains.  We will finish around 10:30am and will have time to pack and leave after.  Some people pack before breakfast the last morning and leave a few minutes after we are finished.  Check out time is noon latest.

What is the space like?
The retreat space takes place on 8 private acres on Tara's small farm, soon to be lavender farm.  We have chickens, incredible views of the Grand Mesa, old cottonwood trees, open field and lots of nooks for private silent meditation.  The space also has covered and exposed eating/ lounging options as well as a beautiful 20 foot ceremonial tipi.

Camping vs Indoor Room?
If you truly want to embody mother earth, we suggest camping.  If you are camping, we provide rustic outdoor options.  A place for a tent, car camping or small campers.  Hook ups are not available, however you'll be able to charge a phone.   Keep in mind, campers do not have access to indoor bathrooms due to our sensitive septic.  Outdoor porta-potties, hand washing station and drinking water is provided outdoors.  Outdoor showering is not provided, however if you'd like to rinse off for just a minute with no soap, you may do so with the hose in the designated area.

How many people will attend?
Approximately 4 to 6 students + sometimes an assistant w/ Tara
​
Is this retreat clothed? 
Yes, however there are private spaces where you may commune with mother earth w/o clothing.  We do need to be senstive as our neighbors are within sight on some areas of the property.
​
What if I'm a little uncomfortable? 
Each practice and session is always presented with options to adapt to each person's comfort level.  Comfort & trust is a priority and we grow upon each practice step by step for expansion.
 
Can I leave the retreat space to explore in town?
The intention is to stay at the retreat center.   The safe energy of group is broken when students come and go.  There is plenty of space to distance yourself or to walk and run on a dirt road and 8 acres.  If you'd like to explore town, we recommend to arrive early or stay after the retreat to site see. 

How is the weather?
Be prepared for 50's to 100's degrees this time of year, as we will be outside often. Prepare for rain. 
The site has a tipi, shaded areas, outdoor eating (some covered).
