Thank you for being part of our community.

We began 2020 by stating that this was a year for clarity. It soon became clear that we would all be tested in unprecedented ways.  Spirit Fire's mission of cultivating consciousness is needed more now than ever. Throughout this year we have relied heavily on our mission to add peace to unsettling days and provide support to an uncertain future for our retreat center. And we hope, whether by meditating with the Practice of Living Awareness or by remembering memories of a past retreat, that Spirit Fire’s presence continues to be felt in your life, offering solace in difficult times.

​For us, one thing has become increasingly clear: the reason we’re here is you! Without your support and enduring commitment to our mission, Spirit Fire's evolution over the last 20 years would not have been possible. This year we need you more than ever before. This past year has left our organization in jeopardy. With your help, our retreat center will remain a place where people gather to reflect, renew, and transform… where the human spirit thrives!
Our goal is to raise $25,000 by January 15th, 2021. Please consider contributing to our cause.
"Humanity needs spaces and people who understand the importance of deepening in self-awareness. What Spirit Fire has taught me is that when people are in a safe environment , true healing can take place. We all have the potential to self-heal on so many levels.

Being supported by Steve & Tim and the whole Spirit Fire environment has allowed me to grow and learn about being a caring and effective facilitator. The peace and beauty of Spirit Fire encourages opening to new possibilities and unlimited potential."
Our organization purchased a 95 acre property in the mountain foothills of Leyden, MA in 2002. Our retreat center was built there in 2005 and expanded in 2019 to include the Living Awareness Center. The forest, rolling fields, pasture, gardens, trails, streams, and wildlife have become an integral part of the meditative experience we provide. With your contributions, this land will continue to be a place of respite and inspiration for visitors to Spirit Fire.
We have had the privilege of stewarding Spirit Fire since 2013. Our dream was to be in a place where our service could make an impact on a person's journey; whether that be through meditation, healthy food choices, the feeling of 'home' through care and attention to detail, or a simple hug that conveys, "I see you!" Spirit Fire soon became our life's passion and the reward comes from you. We are so grateful our paths have crossed.

T​he Practice of Living Awareness, our meditation practice, has been offered free and online for nearly two decades. We were virtual when virtual wasn't cool. Now that's pioneering!

​And throughout the year, we offer in-person programming that supports various aspects of our online meditation practice. Your donations help us ensure that the meditation practice and the Living Awareness Retreats remain a vital part of our offerings.
