“I’ve been seeking since I was 18 and now I’m over 80. I’ve been to lots of retreats, but I’ve never experienced anything like this. This is the love I’ve been looking for my whole life. I now see it’s all love.“– John, retreat participant, Portland
Adam’s events bring people together with a shared intention of falling open to the truth, and liberating the natural, lively, loving consciousness that flows through us. There’s usually guided meditation, silence, sharing, dialogue, and sometimes explorations using simple exercises. At these gatherings awareness saturates experience, revealing and liberating our conditioning. The space is soft, gentle, and supportive, but relentlessly permeating even the most tightly held places. Openings within each participant catalyze further openings for others. We’re being invited to unfold together!

More testimonials:
“I have fallen in love with myself, the others and reality. I am tasting total acceptance and unconditional love. I am learning to allow myself to accept love and to allow myself to express it without hiding and the restrictions of shame.” – Gayane, retreat participant, Sofia
“As Adam was responding to my question, I noticed that I was ‘listening’ to the feeling of his presence more than the actual words. Then Adam gazed at me for some time without saying a word. I could really feel so much love from his presence. I almost started crying. It was such a healing experience.” – Lilia, event participant, Sofia
“This weekend retreat has been life changing. It opened new vistas of experience. I felt a deep and unconditional love that I’d only heard about before. Some part of me that had always been trying to manage my motor and linguistic action has suddenly relaxed. This has left me with more energy and a deeper sense of aliveness.” – Tony, retreat participant, Seattle
