SUMMARY:Held and Whole:  A Restorative & Educational ADHD Retreat  – October 10-12\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:For those navigating life with ADHD\, this thoughtfully designed weekend offers nourishment for your nervous system\, body\, and brain. Together\, we’ll explore practical\, mindfulness-based tools to strengthen emotional regulation\, deepen self-awareness\, and foster authenticity—all anchored by accessible approaches for cultivating kindness\, compassion\, patience\, and joy.\n \nThis retreat will focus on ADHD-friendly ways to begin contemplative practices\, or deepen your existing one\, with an emphasis on how mindfulness-based supports enhance all aspects of ADHD care.   It is a unique opportunity to blend evidence-based interventions with practices that invite more ease and ok-ness into daily life. Through contemplative tools rooted in nature’s elements\, we’ll return to our deeper purpose and shared values\, amidst the expansive beauty of the Catskills in autumn.\n \nSessions will offer simple\, actionable techniques that validate and address the significant challenges of managing emotional intensity for those living with ADHD. The emphasis throughout will be a balanced mix of science-based education\, therapeutic goals centered on self-regulation\, and restorative time outdoors.\n \nThis is a rare opportunity to return home grounded in both a compassionate and realistic view of living with ADHD. You will walk away with a set of practical resources ready and available to you\, and everyone you live with or serve as a care provider or teacher\, for everyday use.\n \nImmerse yourself in a space for quiet exploration\, intentionality\, and rejuvenation.\n \n• Open more fully through the lens of loving-kindness\n \n• Generate care for ourselves and one another\n \n• Engage with joy\, especially during stressful times\n \n• Cultivate equanimity and emotional balance in daily life\n \nWhether you’re seeking clarity\, restoration\, or understanding\, this gathering invites you to slow down\, be present\, listen deeply\, and reconnect with your natural capacity for intention and insight.\n \nJoin us—any adult living with ADHD\, parents\, teachers\, providers\, and partners—all are welcome.
