THE SANCTUARY
After more than 25 years of service, teaching, friendship and community, the Sanctuary will be closing at the end of July 2026.
This decision has arisen from a deeply felt recognition that a significant chapter is drawing to a natural close. Over recent years the work of the Sanctuary has entered a period of profound depth and focus with a super-dedicated sangha, culminating in our recent Sangha India Retreat. And it was during this retreat that we recognised the Sanctuary was approaching the completion of its purpose.
While the spirit of the teachings remains as alive and vibrant as ever, it is now time for the Sanctuary to come to a close, making space for what life may be calling forth next. We will be stepping away from the formal structure of the Sanctuary and the teacher role as we enter a new season of listening, reflection and inner work.
For nearly three decades the Sanctuary has been a place of transformation, friendship, spiritual enquiry and shared journeying for countless people. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this extraordinary community, and we carry that gratitude forward into whatever comes next.
The Sanctuary's final season runs through til 25th July, concluding with the Summer Retreat and the closing Guru Purnima Gathering on Wednesday 29th July.
With Love & Deep Gratitude,
