Reflections from the 2017 Gathering in Hawaii

by Leave a Comment

The Big Island of Hawaii, volcanic, tropical and verdant, welcomed the Centers Gathering to the sacred land in the northernmost tip, far beyond Kona. This year Hawaii Island Retreat hosted our annual event that moves between locations around the world. The beauty of the landscape shone through, nourishing each one of us as we immersed ourselves more deeply into the experience day by day.

Each year we meet in the spirit of mutual learning, recognising each other as peers along the path all devoted to a more conscious, holistic and regenerative culture. We welcomed 18 new participants into the circle, a sign the Gathering is increasing in magnetism and being recognised for the vital meeting place that it represents. The hub at the center of a vast global network, larger than we know. [Read more…]

Announcing the 2017 Gathering in Hawaii

by 14 Comments

We are delighted the next Holistic Centers Gathering will be hosted by Hawaii Island Retreat along Hawaii Island’s North Kohala coast, 7 – 12 May 2017.

Connect with your peers

This is a unique opportunity to connect with your peers from other centers and share wisdom and experience in an open and creative way.

We invite you to join us for this valuable experience of learning and support, the practical exchange of ideas, insights and information, and bonding through shared values and intentions.

Each year the Gathering is hosted by a different centre, in 2016 we enjoyed the UNESCO World Heritage treasure and elegance of Old Québec City. In 2017 we’ll be immersed in the myth and magic of the Hawaiian culture. Step away from the demands of running your holistic centre, enjoy professional learning combined with natural wellbeing, living in harmony and balance with nature.

Hawaii Island Retreat is becoming a leader in sustainable travel and green living. From building construction to garden design, the 50-acre retreat models ways in which we can live both in luxury and in balance with the earth. Experience the range of green living features and trend setting eco spa practices as we sit in a sacred circle and explore what it means to serve the emerging holistic world view.
