Weekend Retreat at Mount Madonna

Two and a half days among the redwoods with Cory Muscara, weaving mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, somatic release and positive psychology into a retreat about unwinding the patterns built up over a lifetime of trying to be safe.

The heart of what I offer as a teacher is this — the ability to help you unblend your true self from the personality you developed to keep you safe.
