6. What activities are included?

This experience is for you if you’re longing to slow down, soften, and reconnect with yourself—without pressure or expectation.

Our time together will unfold in a nourishing blend of guided practices and spacious moments, intentionally designed to support rest, reflection, and authentic connection with other women. Experiences may include:

• A welcome ceremony to gently arrive and set intentions

• Yoga and mindful movement to support your body and nervous system

• Meditation and breathwork to quiet the mind and create inner spaciousness

• Expressive art as a pathway for self-expression (no experience needed)

• Journaling and personal reflection to listen inward and honor what’s present

• Nature bathing to mindfully explore your 5 senses

• Group gatherings that foster connection, sharing, and community

• A campfire experience with movement, sound, and ceremony under the open sky

Rooted in the energy of fall—a season of release and transition, this retreat invites you to explore the theme of letting go. Together, we will gently reflect on what you may be carrying and what you are ready to release, much like the leaves naturally falling from the trees.

There will also be unstructured time to rest, wander in nature, or simply be—because part of healing is giving yourself permission to do less.

If you’ve been holding space for everyone else, this is your invitation to be held.
Come as you are. Leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected—to yourself and to a community of women walking alongside you.
