Spiritual Programs
Retreat from the world for a while, slow down and reconnect with a deeper spirituality
Our programs are designed to be inclusive and to reverence the uniqueness of each individual. Rather than teach or simply impart information, we seek to facilitate participants’ capacities to listen into and trust their still inner voice. Our group programs aim to nurture contemplative dialogue and respectful community. We have much to learn from one another and great comfort and joy experiencing how we are not alone.
Join us for a themed day, evening and overnight program. Cranaleith offers a safe space to discover, probe and nurture your spirit.
