We Are Nature…
…Eco-Somatic Retreats help us Remember
Join us for an Eco-Somatic Group Retreat to awaken the healing nature within and remember your kinship with Earth.
The Magic of
Eco-Somatic Group Retreats
Imagine unplugging from bright-lit screens and the ticking clock. Immersing yourself fully in nature with community and an attuned guide.
Think blankets spread on grass or woodland floors, quiet rustling of leaves, babbling creeks, sweet chorus of bird song.
Learning and healing together. Laughing, listening, sharing.
This immersive experience helps you remember the innate power and wisdom of nature that LIVES IN YOU, and in each other.
Reawakened in relationship with our Earth kin, imagine moving forward in interconnection, re-enlivened with purpose, rooted in depth. Ready to bring into being a brighter world.

How We Remember, How Eco-Somatic Retreats Work
Somatic Re-Connection
Our bodies and nervous systems breathe with the wisdom of nature’s ancient lineage. We use somatic practice to listen to our nervous system’s experience and let our bodies lead. We listen to the birds and feel the sun on our skin. Our nervous systems co-regulate with Mother Earth. We are remembering what our bodies already know.
We reach out to touch the textures of the land, engage our senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste. Alight the inner child with play and exploration. Reignite the wild within. Harvest the calm of a still and quiet pond.
Intention
From visioning practices, to Earth offerings, and opening and closing rituals, this experience will give you ways to practice the art of intention, creating presence around what you are cultivating and releasing, and staying open to possibility.
By slowing down and connecting, we can learn a paradigm of relating with Earth rooted in reciprocity, love, and interbeing, one that also supports us in accessing our own power, healing, and manifestation of our dreams.
Weaving
With Eco-Somatics, we are weaving our lives back home into nature. As you return to your daily life, your deeper connection to the nature within and around you weaves into your work, relationships, & community. You take in more of the vibrant, breathing world to which we belong.
This offering is designed both to be an in-the-moment gift of an experience. And, may it support you in growing closer to your true nature as you continue on your journey.
