Annual Retreat:
Once a year, usually during the summer months, the members of The Hawai'i Diamond Approach participate in a 10 day retreat.

The retreat setting allows the body of work we have been following all year to integrate and synthesize through a continuum of daily practice and unified presence of mind, body, and spirit for an extended length of time.

This setting provides an opportunity for the student to deepen his or her awareness and practice of personal process in a supportive environment.

Retreats are structured as either residential, where we live-in or in a day retreat style where we continue with our daily lives and work in the world along with participating in the retreat intensive. Both formats have proved to be useful as a way of bringing one's spiritual path into daily life experience.
