by Ruth and Bruce Davis, PhD Founders:

• Days in the silence allow us to receive peace and quiet.  Silence is our opportunity to receive the beauty in nature, meditation, the present moment, our hearts, the simplicity of just being and to touch the sacred inside of us.  
• These are precious days free from our daily story and all that we are doing.  In the quiet we open to the peace that is in our hearts. Silence allows everyone the opportunity to stay with their own thoughts, their inner experience.
• The quiet helps everyone find this inner place of love and beauty that is always present but mostly covered up by busy-ness. The gift of silence is having nothing to do, nothing to say, having time to enjoy solitude, gentleness, a quiet mind.
• ​A few days of simple peace and we feel new again, more in touch with our essence.  The silence is the doorway into our own spirituality, truth, wisdom.​

• When we are not busy talking, our mind takes a rest. Our heart becomes more available. The silence outside helps us to find the still place inside. This is our silent retreat, the vast quietude of the heart. A few days of simple peace and we feel new again, more in touch with our essence.  The silence is the doorway into our own spirituality, truth and wisdom.
