A Weekend Retreat in London
August 9-10, 2025
At Meditatio Centre London
In-person
Join us for a weekend retreat
Henryโs retreats provide a unique opportunity to deepen your meditation practice and immerse yourself in a supportive community of fellow seekers. They offer a chance to connect with others on the meditation journey.
Each retreat blends guided meditations, silent practice, and teachings โ both ancient and modern. Poetry, stories, and reflections from beloved authors further enrich the experience. Practicing live and in-person with others can be profoundly deep and transformative. The shared stillness, the opportunity to compare insights, and the support of a like-minded community are all foundational elements of a strong, sustainable practice.
Clarity, connection, and presence
A core feature of these retreats is the extended Q&A sessions, where participants can engage directly with Henry, ask meaningful questions, and benefit from the shared wisdom of the group.
Whether youโve explored The Way app, read Henryโs books, or heard him speak on a podcast, these retreats offer heartfelt explorations of essential meditation themes and practices โ inviting you to deepen your path with clarity, connection, and presence.
What you’ll learn from Henry
This weekend retreat is an opportunity to explore the four main zones of practice โ Mindfulness, Connectedness, Flow, and Awakening โ found in The Way app and Henryโs book, Original Love. These foundational aspects of meditation offer explorations from the heart, of themes and practices that are central to developing and following a wholesome meditation practice.
By immersing ourselves in shared stillness, we open to a deeper sense of rest and ease, allowing a more profound connection with our true nature to emerge. Through practice, reflection, and community, these retreats accelerate our journey toward a more wholehearted and awakened way of being.
