For many people, French Meadows is a life-changing event and, in my opinion, something everyone should experience at least once.
K.L., Oakland, CA
A supreme highlight of the past couple of years, and I didn't expect to have so much fun! I'll be back next summer for sure.
E.N. Lamy, NM
With it being my first time I wasn't sure what to expect but I left feeling energized and focused, and felt I learned a lot.
L.E., Canada
When I go to French Meadows, it's like coming home. The trees and the people welcome me with open arms. My special ROCK in the river invites me to sit on it. . . Support, camaraderie and learning takes place on many levels, from our teachers and from each other.
B.J., Placerville, CO
Whatever imbalances occurred over the course of the year disappeared, seemingly without effort, during my 9-day stay at the French Meadows Camp. I was restored to well being at every level. An energizing, potent experience. Highly recommended.

French Meadows 2003
Feel the stillness and vitality of the trees,
The freedom of the wind,
The blossom of the flowers,
The power of the stream,
The gentleness of the moss,
The stability of the rocks,
The newness of the saplings,
The freshness of the air,
The strength of the mountains,
The openness of the sky,
The lightness of the clouds,
The brightness of the sun,
The essence of the moon,
The cleansing of the morning dew,
The beauty of nature,
The beauty of you.
Stand on the edge of this beauty
open your arms.
Fill your heart
and absorb it into the depths of your soul.
Merge with this beauty
until you are on with all that is,
until you can soar with the eagle
with wings on the wind.
Let it fill your body
and release the tension that limits you.
Send your worries with the wind that
blows through and cleanses you.
Wash your heart in the stream of life
and let the stress of the world
flow out and be released.
Let nature love you until you are new.
Then look upon nature
with eyes of a newborn child,
and know your mother
who gives you life
and nourishes your body and soul.
