  • Rekindle your heart connection;
  • Expand your awareness of each other;
  • Learn how to sustain your divine friendship.
Wedding Ceremony

This weekend is for married couples only.

This weekend is led by J.T. and Gitabai Heater, who have been married since 1998, and who each began their spiritual quest many years before they met.

Gitabai Heater worked as a marriage and family therapist for thirteen years before moving to Ananda Village. She enjoys working with small groups toward a goal of greater awareness. Currently she devotes her time to writing and promoting her publishing business. J.T. Heater is an architect talented in both religious and secular designs.

“This [marriage retreat] was incredible – a deeply moving experience in which we were guided by experienced hands toward a deeper understanding of ourselves and the married relationships of each of us. In this beautiful, invigorating, sharing, and mutually supportive place, we enjoyed great food, excellent company, and exercises and rituals that touched us all deeply.”
