What a whirlwind life is these days. As dynamic as it can be, the breakneck pace of modern living can leave us disconnected from ourselves and the deeper purpose for why we’re so busy in the first place.

As the days grow shorter and the nights grow long, the rhythm of nature invites us to slow down and look within ourselves. Through intentional non-doing and contemplative practices, we are able to gain perspective to refocus, recharge, and gestate the creative endeavors we will birth in the year ahead.

 

What do you want to polish and refine before the vital spring force floods in to

support these creations?

In this retreat, we will share authenticity, presence, vulnerability, creativity, and deep nature connection in order to empower ourselves to step into our lives as significant women*. This is a time to recognize our power as creators of our own lives, be seen by others and welcome support from our community. When the inner capacity awakens, things will start to accelerate in our lives!

Please join us for 3 days and 2 nights of creative reflection and imaginative potential. Drawing from numerous practices including yoga, intuitive movement, journal work, song, expressive arts, ceremonial sauna and cold plunge, deep nature connection, cacao and shamanic journeywork, we will focus on questions such as:

 

What brings me most alive in this world?
Where do I most wish to use my energy?
What are my greatest challenges and how can I move through them?
What are my unique gifts and how can I share them?
How can I design my life to fulfill my deepest sense of purpose?

 

This experience will support you to:

Explore – Pause to notice where you are. Honor the past, accept the present and get curious about your future. Listen to what is actually important for you and take a journey to discover new meadows within your inner landscape. Get wild and playful!

Envision – Allow creativity to move through you in ways you’ve never seen before. Say yes, and yes, and yes again. Begin to see the higher perspective of your path and breathe into the mysteries presented before you.

Evoke – Fuel your visions through discovering the pure potential within. Activate the inner capacity to break apparent barriers and find the power to take the steps forward.

Ease – Release expectations of how and when action takes place.  Relax into the great current of your life and allow a natural reset and unfolding to take place. Breathe into patience and trust; allow integration.

Empower – Keep your visions alive by investing and distributing your energy wisely. Take responsibility of your life and own every bit of it.

Embody – Walk your talk in relationships, work, communication – through the hardships and joys for your life. Remember to remember that every moment counts.

Expand – Allow natural emanation of your process. Collaborate, give and receive, breathe through the fear of stepping into your own light and share it with your community.
