Program Overview

Change your life. Change the world. Over the past four years, we’ve walked with more than 100 women as they’ve dug, weeded, and replanted their inner gardens. Through this process, they’ve discovered what they want and what they don’t. They’ve improved their relationships, gained strength and support with health problems, taken new career paths, and started expressing themselves in new and creative ways. Every one of them has proved a universal truth: When you change your life for the better, you change the world for the better.

If you want to make positive change in your own life—and in the world—start in your own garden. Come join us, and see how a year of Tending Your Inner Garden can help you make lasting change by discovering and expressing your deepest self.

What is Tending Your Inner Garden?
Founded in 2002, Tending Your Inner Garden helps women step out of their everyday lives, connect with the wisdom of their own inner voice, and reflect on how they would like to live their lives now. Your year-long membership includes…

• Four one-day retreats themed to each season of change
• A Discovery Dinner Series offering an in-depth opportunity for conversation and listening
• An online newsletter to provide ongoing companionship and support
• A copy of the Tending Your Inner Garden self-study journal

How does the program work?
Tending Your Inner Garden provides a nurturing environment in which women use the lessons offered by seasons of the year in understanding and negotiating change in their own lives. Each month you’ll gather—either at a one-day retreat or at a dinner—with the same group of women to engage in activities and spiritual practices that help you get in touch with what really matters to you. The program will help you set your intentions early in the year and explore changes as you go.

What is the value of a year-long commitment?
The year-long program gives you an opportunity to learn about yourself and other women in-depth and develop a community of support that makes significant change possible. It’s absolutely surprising what you can learn about yourself in month number 3 or 7 or 12 that you wouldn’t have discovered by coming to a single one-day workshop. Although change can happen in an instant, it’s more often the result of intentional, ongoing reflection and the development of new ways of being in the world.
