It was a privilege to spend a few days at Big Bear Retreat Center in the San Bernardino Mountains participating in the "Finding Peace in the Midst of Global Polycrisis: Embodying a Calm Mind & Relaxed Body" meditation retreat. It was a wonderful experience in a beautiful setting alongside amazing people. 🙏 ***** Description: A retreat designed to explore mindfulness and bring it into our daily lives. Community leaders and change-makers often give so much that their own well-being is overlooked—leading to exhaustion and burnout. This retreat offers a chance to pause, restore, and reconnect with what truly matters. Through mindfulness meditation and the healing power of nature, we’ll explore practices that foster inner calm, resilience, and renewal in the face of ongoing global challenges. Together, we’ll create a supportive space to nourish the body, heart, and mind, so we can return to our lives and work with greater clarity, compassion, and sustainability, while caring for ourselves, the Earth, and all beings. We host leaders in community-based organizations and philanthropic sectors in the SoCal region. ❤️
