We ask that retreatants leave as much of their technology at home except for whatever you need for traveling. Starting Friday evening until Sunday goodbyes, we ask that technology not be used on the property.

We ask that all retreatants turn off their phones and let themselves unplug fully. We encourage you to create a communication plan with loved ones at home so that they know when you can be contacted.

Travel arrangements to Whidbey Island are not included in the retreat rate. However, I am happy to try and coordinate ride shares. To get to the retreat, you will take a beautiful ferry ride to Whidbey Island and a short drive (20-minute) near the town of Langley.
