Pay in Full: oh, wonderful! I can’t wait to share this time together. By paying in full you are making such a beautiful commitment to yourself and to the potent time of our retreat. If you need to cancel, the total amount, minus a fee ($300), can be refunded before April 1st. Starting April 2nd you will only be refunded if the retreat fills or if you find someone to fill your spot.

Payment Plans: Options to pay over multiple months are available for both single and shared rooms - the amount of months you can spread it out over varies depending on when you are booking. If you would like to discuss other arrangements, please don’t hesitate to reach out with a note. All deposits and payments are non-refundable.

Shared Rooms: Shared rooms offer 2-3 separate twin beds. If booking a sliding scale shared room you can indicate if you would prefer a single - these may become available but can’t be guaranteed in advance.

Scholarship: As funds allow, scholarships are offered to each retreat. These scholarships may be partial or full depending on available funds and the need and are in honor of Kai Kyles, a heartled organizer, spiritual friend, and light in the community who lost their young life to suicide in 2022. Anyone is welcomed to apply.

Are you financially able to contribute to the scholarship fund or support the sliding scale model? Let’s lift each other up. You can send donations to: paypal.me/gwendolynren

 

 
 

Cancellation: In the very unlikely circumstance that our retreat is impacted by forces beyond our control and the retreat is cancelled, your fees and payments may be retained and our gathering rescheduled. This is the best option due to the significant amount of planning and investment both on the side of the facilitator (that’s me) and our venue. I am unable to offer refunds in the event of illness, I recommend purchasing travel insurance for your own peace of mind.

(Also, shit happens, please always reach out with questions or needs).

Questions? Read through the FAQ section, and please send me an email with anything else to: hi@gwendolynren.com
