Description:
As February marks the earliest whispers of spring's return, we invite you to a half-day mindfulness retreat honoring your own quiet emergence.

In the stillness of winter's end, discover the courage to meet yourself with fresh awareness. Through meditation, gentle movement, walking in nature, and cultivating compassion as spring returns, we'll explore what it means to awaken—not once, but moment by moment—to the aliveness already present within you.

Opening meditation & gentle mindful movement to awaken the body
Mindful eating practice—a simple, profound practice for daily life
Walking meditation in nature, connecting with earth's renewal
Compassion meditation & reflective inquiry
Loving-kindness infused full body relaxation
Poetry & song woven throughout as the language of the soul

🥗NOURISHMENT FOR BODY & SOUL:
During the morning, enjoy lovingly prepared homemade snacks made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. We believe caring for the body is inseparable from caring for mind and spirit—each bite prepared with attention and intention.

Practical mindfulness techniques for daily life
The mindful eating practice to bring into everyday meals
Compassion practices for meeting yourself with kindness
A deeper connection to the present moment
A felt sense of your own capacity for renewal

Everyone! This retreat welcomes both experienced meditators looking to deepen their practice and those completely new to mindfulness. We'll create a supportive space where you can explore at your own pace, meeting yourself exactly where you are.
