Being One with the Earth - Summer Solstice Retreat
June 11-14, 2026 | Occitania, France
You are invited to join the Be One Earth Retreat! Designed to regenerate and revitalize our personal and collective energy, this special gathering offers a space for renewal, deep connection to nature and inspirational leadership, bridging personal well-being with community action. At the end of the retreat, we will feel more aligned between body, mind and heart. We will be able to reconnect to our shared humanity and experience a deep sense of belonging to the Earth. Together we can be One with the Earth.
What to expect
Ground in Mindfulness Practices: Ground yourself with a light schedule of mindfulness practices in the Plum Village tradition. Changemakers have long sought refuge in the teachings of Plum Village, founded by renowned Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh. This retreat draws inspiration from these teachings, supporting us to cultivate inner grounding for outer change.
Regenerate and Restore: Practice yoga, sitting and walking meditation, hiking, sight-seeing, swimming and other activities that nourish body and mind, amidst the peace and beauty of the South West of France’s serene landscapes. As we gather close to the Summer Solstice - the longest day of the year - we have a chance to illuminate not only ourselves but also the community we are building for the future.
Foster Community Resilience around a Shared Vision for the Future: Gather in a trusted circle to nourish meaningful connections and collective strength over delicious home-made meals, walks, and mindful gatherings. Reflect together on bringing mindfulness in our work and collaborations, to help us to lead with greater ease and purpose around our shared vision for the future.
