Retreat with Author Mark Nepo

Beloved as a poet, teacher, and storyteller, Mark Nepo is a bestselling author and one of Oprah’s favorite spiritual guides, using his gifts and his talents to elevate humanity. He returns to Harmony Hill to lead a special two-day workshop, The Struggle to Be Real: The Journey of Transformation.

As a poet, philosopher and teacher, Mark Nepo has been breaking a path of spiritual inquiry for more than forty years. This workshop affirms how precious this one life is and opens the chance we have to be fully alive and to be of use to each other and the world. Drawn from his years of teaching, Nepo explores how our hard work and authenticity ready us for meaning and grace. He unfolds how our sincerity and labor help us to survive and thrive through the journey of transformation. Being human offers a path of soul work that can help us find our way, as Nepo puts it, “to discover the story behind the story, and to find what can last.”
