STANFORD RETREAT
Process work
Clive and Pieter are tourism professionals and hiking enthusiasts. We are also fans of process work learned in the Entrepreneurs' Organization and the Mankind Project. As such, a gentle but powerful daily process of mindfulness and setting intention will be followed in the morning and evenings. This will require respecting technology abstinence at mealtimes and full engagement with the group work.
SIGN UP AND PAYMENT
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to participate. Balance of payment required before departure. Should you be unable to come on the walk due to personal reasons, we will endeavor to fill your spot with a like-minded individual and facilitate a refund.
