A Weekend of Intentional Connection and Personal Renewal
As autumn paints the Pocono Mountains in warm hues of amber and rust, step away from the mounting pressures of the approaching holiday season. This mid-November retreat offers a sacred pause—a moment to breathe, reflect, and restore before the world becomes a whirlwind of obligations and expectations.
Nestled on over 400 acres of pristine natural land, Turning Inward Together provides a meaningful respite where you can quiet the mind and explore your inner landscape amidst the serene beauty of fall. Imagine walking meditation among fallen leaves, gentle yoga practices warmed by soft autumn light, and moments of deep reflection as the natural world prepares for its winter rest.
This isn’t about radical transformation, but gentle, intentional exploration. We’ve crafted an experience that welcomes all levels of wellness experience, designed for those seeking to reset, realign, and reconnect with themselves before the holiday season begins.
