Women's Retreat (IFS-informed)

This weekend is an invitation for women to slow down, come home to themselves, and explore their inner world in a supportive, nature-held environment.

Our work is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), a gentle and respectful approach that understands the psyche as made up of different “parts,” all of which are trying to help in some way. You do not need any prior IFS experience. Everything is introduced slowly, in accessible language, and at a pace that honours safety and consent.
Rather than fixing, pushing, or analysing, we’ll practice turning toward our inner experience with curiosity and compassion. Through guided IFS-inspired reflections, breathwork, sound journeys, a guided medicine journey, time in nature, and rest, you are supported in meeting your inner world with more spaciousness and self-trust.

This is an all-inclusive weekend, all meals, snacks and medicines are included. **A shared room (with 2 seperate beds in it) is $750. Check out all the info on our website. **To book a free info call to see if this adventure if right for you, please email Nici at nici@breathinginnature.com.

## Flow of the Weekend

## Friday: Arrival

We arrive at our beautiful home away from home in the early afternoon and get settled in. We gather to open the container for the weekend with breathwork. We hear each others stories of healing and chat about expectations for the weekend and the medicine journey. We share a deliscious dinner and dive deep with a magical sound journey.

## Saturday: Group Medicine Journey

This healing weekend is about sacred ceremony with transformational medicine. Our hearts will be open, connected to Self and each other. The intense love and compassion of the day will allow you to turn this healing energy inwards. We explore our blocks to giving and receving love. The great block of FEAR will release and you will hear your truth. Being held and witnessed by your sisters in community is the true medicine.

## Sunday: Integration & Closing

The integration of our medicine experiene is all about making sense of what happened to us: mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually, and in relation. We tap into self-energy with our breath, take a cold plunge into the lake and share what has come up for us. Hearing our own story and sharing these parts of us is what helps integrate and grow from the experience. Sunday is all about rest and recovery.
We allow the powerful energy of gratitude to flow through us. Thanking ourselves for showing up, thankful for the experiences we shared and being present with each other. We close the container of ceremony. Renewed in our strength as women, understanding that we are the medicine and everything we need is already within us. This is the beginning of your journey.
