Hello lovely Retreaters!
A member has let us know that October’s retreat (on 18th) clashes with the No Kings protests in the US.
As you know, we always record the live retreats so that you can catch up later if you have something else on, but in this case I’m guessing that a significant number of you will be part of the protests. And I’d like to support you in that the best I can (while also not annoying too many people by switching dates around!)
From my perspective, I can easily move the event back by a week to Saturday 25th October - but is that the right thing to do? Because democracy is important (😉) I’ve set up a poll below to find out what you think. Feel free to also comment!
If we do move the retreat, I’d love to help out the people who are protesting. I could run you an hour-long gathering in the morning to help you feel calm and centred before the event begins - would that help?
Whatever we decide here, I just want to send big love and solidarity to all of you in the US. Please know that we’re watching in horror from here in the UK.
Take care,
Katherine
