For thousands of years, humans lived in harmony with the earth's rhythms, guided by the sun, moon, and seasons…
In our modern era, we've drifted away from these natural cycles, leaving us feeling stretched thin, exhausted, and disconnected. By rediscovering our interconnectedness with nature, embracing cyclical living, and integrating earth-based rituals into our lives, we can reignite our intuition and realign with an ancient, innate rhythm.
Consider carving out moments for yourself, allowing space to synchronize with the whispers of your heart. Across cultures and throughout history, wisdom echoes the diversity of paths to spiritual growth.
There's no singular blueprint or prescribed ritual for evolution. Instead, like the changing seasons, there exist overarching processes akin to nourishing elements for the human spirit.
This retreat is a compassionate and supportive gathering for womxn built on the beliefs of spiritual practices and well being in a non-judgemental and introspective way. We are keeping this first gathering intimate yet potent. Move, breathe and honor your well being. Treat yourself to something wild and wonderful that couldn’t be found anywhere else.
Workshops // Sacred Self Care // Movement // Skill Sharing
Learn a new hobby or skill from a community of enthusiastic practitioners.
During our weekend together in the golden dust, we’ll delve into these nourishing elements and how they reinforce sustainable lifestyles while exploring the myriad of ways that natural cycles of birth, growth, harvest, release, and rest are reflected in the world around us. Together, we’ll connect through immersing in nature and ritual by blending our energies, fostering connections to the land, and ancestral wisdom through yoga, & breath work, skill share, swimming, hiking, sharing meals, herbalism & song.
