- **Event Description**: A weekend to talk about what really matters.

Turning Toward What Matters is a small, heart-centered retreat at Kairos Farm in Metamora, MI. In a quiet, restored barn, we’ll spend two nourishing days slowing down, breathing, and gently exploring how facing mortality can actually help us live more fully now.

What we’ll explore together:
• What helps me feel physically at ease and cared for?
• What do I need emotionally to feel honest and supported?
• How do my beliefs or spirituality ground me?
• What gives my life meaning and a sense of “I have done what I needed to do”?
• Who are the people I want to feel more connected and complete with?
• What practical details would bring peace of mind for me and those I love?

What to expect
• Guided reflections and journaling
• Gentle group conversation in a small, supportive circle
• Quiet time for rest and being with the land and animals
• Simple body-based and mindfulness practices to help the nervous system settle
(informed by therapeutic yoga and mindfulness; no prior experience needed and everything is invitational)

What’s included

 • A pre-retreat Zoom orientation for connection, and preparation
 • Guided reflections &amp; journaling
