  • Immerse in Winter Solstice MAGIC!

    The Winter Solstice celebrates the light returning in the middle of the darkness. It symbolizes the rebirth of the sun. It reminds us to give ourselves time to journey within to discover what we want to let go of, what we want to keep, and what we want to focus our energy on - so that we can let the sun's light nourish our new visions, dreams, and intentions for the next coming year. In this way, we move with the cycles of Mother Earth, allowing her to help us manifest all that we are meant to be, so that we can share our soul gifts with the world.

    "There is magic in all season. But winter's magic is more concise, most dense, most crystalline. It is diamond magic, cool and brilliant, not the fiery magic of coal. It is laser fineness, precise direction..." Patricia Monaghan

  • The Gift of Stillness Amidst the Hustle

    As the world rushes into the holiday season, take a moment to pause, reflect, and reconnect with your inner self. Our Winter Solstice retreat: Winter's Wisdom - The Gift of Stillness is designed to help you find peace amidst the chaos, offering a sanctuary where you can become centered, grounded, and renewed.

    Join us for an immersive experience trailered to help you release stress, embrace calm, and reconnect with your true essence. It is not just a break from the busyness - it's a special gift to yourself. It is a chance to nurture your soul as the year comes to a close.

    Let the energy of the Solstice guide you. Together we'll embrace stillness, creativity, and deep inner connection, so you can step into the new year with clarity, strength, and purpose

  • Become Connected, With Yourself & Others

    As the Winter Solstice invites us to pause and go within, this retreat offers the perfect opportunity to reconnect with your inner self, while also fostering meaningful connections with others.

    Through guided practices and activities, you will tap into your own inner wisdom and strength, learning to listen deeply to your heart and spirit.

    At the same time, you will share in the collective energy of the group, participating in a supportive community where authentic connection and shared growth can flourish. By the end of this retreat, you will feel deeply grounded in who you are, and more connected to those walking alongside you on this journey.
