Wonder: Charlotte Relateful Retreat

How often do you experience wonder, ease, and aliveness in your relationships?

This three-day Relateful retreat is an invitation into presence — a relaxed, honest way of being together where connection deepens not through fixing or striving, but through noticing what’s already here.

Through large-group sessions, small groups, and paired explorations, we’ll practice Relatefulness: a living practice of awareness, truth, and love in relationship. You’ll be invited to stay close to your own embodied experience while meeting others with curiosity and care.

This retreat is for those who long for more authentic connection, want to integrate mindfulness into real relationships, and are drawn to growth that happens through gentleness rather than force.

Participants often leave feeling more deeply seen, more fully arrived in themselves, and more able to access awe, aliveness, and honest expression in everyday life.

NOTE: This is a non-residential, commuter retreat (participants return home each night).

Facilitators:
Michael Blas, senior Relateful facilitator with decades of experience worldwide, and
James Dial, steward of Relateful Charlotte, known for his warm, heartfelt presence. Their co-leadership is rooted in genuine friendship and shared devotion to living love and truth.
