Reorienting to Life: A New Year Mini-Retreat w/ Pir Zia Inayat Khan

As we enter the new year, we will gather for a mini-retreat intensive, preparing us for what may come in 2025.

Our theme is what it means to Reorient to Life. How do we synthesize, digest, and find ground within the complexity that we face on a daily basis via news, social media, work, friends, and family?

Pir Zia will guide us through a simple, one-day retreat process. We will gather on Saturday, January 4th, 2025 for three 1 hour and 15-minute sessions with 45-minute breaks in between each one, beginning at 11 am EST (New York)/5 pm CET (Paris) time and ending at 4:15 pm EST/10:15 pm CET. Please see timeanddate.com for your local schedule.

Tuition is a simple $70 for those who can afford this amount, and $45 for those on a more restrictive income. With advance registration, both the video and also the audio by itself will be made available for you to experience the retreat at any time you’d like after the day of the livestream. There will be French, German and Turkish translation.

Zoom will open 15 minutes before our start time, allowing us to center and find ourselves internally and within the digital space. A reminder with the  Zoom link will be sent a few days before, and the day of,  our retreat.

Please contact us at astana@inayatiyya.org if there are any questions. We look forward to being together on January 4th, 2025!

Please note that Inayatiyya Reentry will be in lieu of our annual New Year’s Day attunement with Pir Zia.
