Rest first. The village comes later.
We run retreats now, on rented land near Chicago, while the campus is still being planned. Two to four a year, small groups, real rest.
Choose the depth you need.
Sabr Day
One day · 8 hours
Morning reflection, guided breathwork, a long walk, a shared meal cooked together, and an afternoon of quiet. You leave with a small practice you can actually keep.
ForAnyone carrying a heavy season
From $85
Weekend Retreat
Two nights
Two nights away from the phone. Circles, land work in the garden, wellness sessions, and unstructured rest. Small group, capped so nobody disappears into the crowd.
ForCaregivers, professionals, students
From $340
Intergenerational Weekend
Two nights · families and elders
The heart of the ANARA model, run as a weekend: elders and families attend together. Children learn from elders, elders are needed rather than visited, families get real rest.
ForElders, families, foster and kinship households
Tiered by household
Indicative pricing for our first season. Dates are announced to the waitlist first.
Two full-price seats fund one sponsored seat.
This is the ANARA economy in miniature: earn where we can, subsidise where we must. Nobody in the room knows which seat anyone else is sitting in.
Full price
Covers your seat and part of someone else's. Choose this if you can.
Community rate
A reduced rate, no explanation required and no means test. Ask and it is yours.
Sponsored seat
Fully funded from the Care Fund. Reserved for elders on fixed incomes, caregivers, and families in crisis.
Every retreat is also evidence.
Attendance
How many seats fill, and how quickly, across each format and tier.
Return rate
How many people come back. Community shows up in repeat attendance, not applause.
Before and after
One simple wellbeing question at arrival and departure, tracked over a season.
Those three numbers go straight into the ANARA feasibility study. Retreats are how we prove demand before anyone is asked to fund a building.
