How does a gift registration purchase work?
When you click the above button, you will be redirected to a form to fill out with contact information that you, the gift giver, will provide. The form will provide you with a link to make the payment for the retreat.
Great news! If you purchase a gift retreat registration, you save $50 off the double occupancy price. All giftable rooms are double occupancy. If your recipient doesn’t have a roommate in mind who is also attending, we can assign one. (All attendees get their own beds)
The registration covers the cost of Allen’s fabulous teaching, all meals at the Hideaway, and room fees.
Once you have paid the registration fee, we will contact the gift giver with a coupon code, instructions on how to use it, and a printable certificate for you to present to the lucky recipient of this amazing gift of learning and relaxation.

Retreating at Home
For those of you selecting the online retreat option, we will gather for group discussion once per day on:
Wednesday, March 26, Thursday, March 27, and Friday, March 28
You will have access to teaching videos during the week of the live retreat, typically next morning after the talk was recorded.
If you have time to watch the recordings before the discussion times begin, great! If you don’t, you’re still welcome to come to the Zoom calls we schedule. Links for those Zoom events will be sent to you via email in March.
