With Dori Middleman, MD, Mark Putnam, MD, and Colleen Hanley, LCSW

In this Arrive Already Loved workshop we are continuing the work of Mariah Fenton Gladis and her concept of self-love and positive internal relationship as a foundation for living a healthy life. Her work was about compassion and forgiveness for ourselves and others coming from a place of wholeness by arriving already loved… by you. Join us in this safe and supportive environment for growth and healing. – Ron Gladis

Cost: $595 for individual working space, $475 for group space, and $300 for students and alums of our Center. Limited lodging is available at $170/weekend, shared occupancy. Healthy meals and snacks are included. If you are in financial need, there are a limited number of scholarships available.  Learn more and apply on our scholarship page.

  • Understand thinking as a personal conversation with yourself

  • Turn your meditations away from detachment and separation, and towards Sacred Attachment
