The Eightfold Path Retreat

in Upstate New York

In March 2025, Kevin Courtney’s Eightfold Path community returns with an immersive one-week exploration of the seventh limb of yoga DHYĀNA—the art of effortless awareness and sustained meditation.

Alongside Kevin, facilitators include Natalie Kuhn, Kate Shela, Erin Rose Ward, and Kacey Rodenbush. Each teacher brings a unique mastery of their respective access points into the meditative state.

Retreat attendees will co-create the space to explore them through breath, movement, meditation, contemplation, sound, scent, and stillness.

MYTHOS

A Make the Sun retreat in Antiparos, Greece

The Greek word MYTHOS translates to "our larger story." Good-NESS, don’t we all have some unhelpful myths about ourselves that are outdated and straight up FICTION.

We’ll use our time in stunning Antiparos to explore the narratives that have shaped our sense of self and take wise cues from the ancient ones.

Let’s re-inspire, re-write, and become larger than the strategic mind thought possible. We’ll move, we’ll breathe, we’ll hike, we’ll snorkel, we’ll feast.

Let’s venture.

OLIVA

A Make the Sun retreat in Andalusia, Spain

OLIVA is an invitation to learn from the centuries-old olive groves of the Andalusian countryside.

The olive tree and its oil are seen as mediators between the earthly and the divine. Led by Natalie, together we’ll remove all that distracts in order to listen from a different place, to hear a deeper source. How? Get in and on the land. Hiking through sunlit orchards and walking through charming pueblos blancos… it’s time to replenish your spirit, harvest what’s taken shape & plant seeds for what’s to come.
