Nestled in the tranquil Litchfield Hills, Wisdom House offers the perfect setting to disconnect from the noise and rediscover the wisdom within. Each day, you’ll meet one-on-one with your spiritual companion who will walk beside you as you reflect, heal, and grow.
Let nature and silence restore you—immerse yourself in the gentle rhythm of a labyrinth walk, find inspiration in our art gallery, or simply rest by the pool under the summer sun. Take long walks along quiet country roads, read sacred texts that nourish your spirit, or pour your reflections onto the pages of a journal.
Come home to yourself. Let this time away be a gift—one of renewal, clarity, and deep spiritual connection.

Come away to a quiet place….
We offer these quiet days as an opportunity to disconnect from the busyness of life, and to settle into the silence.
These quiet days are self-directed. Relax at the pool in the summer sunshine, steep yourself in a meditative labyrinth walk, be inspired by the works in our art gallery, or discover the country roads surrounding our property. Bring your Bible or your spiritual reading. Bring a journal or artwork to access your inner wisdom. Bring your favorite book to read or to write. We will come together as a group once a day for a meditation and sharing.
The restful setting of the Litchfield Hills will allow you to appreciate and be embraced by the healing effect of God in the silence.
The retreat begins with dinner at 5:30 pm on Sunday, August 24 (arrive any time after 4 pm) and ends on Friday, August 29 at 10 am.
