New Year message from IPA President

Dear International Primal Association Members and Friends,

Testimonials from our Spring Retreat are available here.

The monthly Zoom IPA Women’s Group is open to all female members and female friends of the IPA. For more information, contact Lina Malkawi.

The Summer Conference and Retreat will be held at Virden Retreat Center (Lewes, Delaware) Sept. 8-14.

It is time now to renew your IPA membership or join for 2026. We have a sliding-fee scale. Those over eighty years of age are gifted with a free membership. Membership gives you substantial discounts on retreat fees and helps support this nonprofit organization.

Warm regards,
Leonard Rosenbaum

The word primal refers to a method of psychological healing that examines the difficult and damaging aspects of our childhoods and helps us feel what was too much for us as children back then. This primal method of healing frees us in the present, so that instead of being shut down and defensive, we become open and whole.

 
What We Are All About
When human beings function as an integrated whole, they easily display peacefulness, openness, joy, and clarity, as shown in the above photos. We believe that primal healing is usually essential to regain such wholeness.
