We invite you to the vacation of your dreams – a week of
sensual delight in
beautiful
Italy. This retreat offers more than
simply the opportunity to get away from ordinary life. During the week we
will spend an entire day exploring each one of the senses:
sight, sound, taste, smell, and
touch.
We believe that in
today's fast-paced world, where hard-working people spend their days
harnessed to computers and cell phones, it is spiritually rewarding to take
time to refine simple pleasures.
This
retreat offers more than simply the opportunity to get away from ordinary
life. We are inspired by the ancient philosophy of Epicureanism. Dating from
the 4th century B.C., Epicureanism taught that the pleasures of the senses
offer an immediately verifiable standard of truth and therefore can serve to
cultivate wisdom, justice, and happiness.
