A letter from Milena

You hold so much, every day.These five days, you are held.

Work, family, the people who rely on you — you carry it well. But somewhere on that list your own name keeps slipping to the bottom.

I gathered this retreat so you don’t have to arrange a single thing: the mountain, the practices, the women beside you, the food on the table, the road there and back. Your only task is to arrive.
