UN-BECOMING RETREAT

The Mountains are calling

Are you ready to unplug from the world and reconnect with nature, others and yourself?

When we take time for these connections, our world opens up to us in a refreshed way. We are able to see, sense, feel and live our lives with so much more clarity.

This time away will allow you to explore who you are when you take away all of who you are not? What beauty lies under the surface when the masks are released?

Imagine feeling grounded, refreshed and open to receiving, seeing and being YOU. How would your life change?

This Journey is for you if you...

feel lost and/or stuck
feel drained, stressed out and/or overwhelmed
always take care of others and are in need of some self care time
need nourishment from nature
are seeking a deeper connection within and with others
are searching for answers to help you move forward
want to be activated, inspired and empowered
are ready to step into the world in a new way
can hear the Mountains calling you

RELEASE RECONNECT RECLAIM

Break away from every day stressors and treat yourself to a weekend of exploration, restoration, relaxation and connection (and fun too!).

Immerse yourself in the beauty and magic of the Mountains of North Carolina. Explore the land, experience the energy and find "YOU" in the sacredness of the blue ridge mountains.

Join us for a four day retreat surrounded by nature where we will relax, explore and reflect. The retreat will offer fun and interactive experiences including meditation, visualization, group processes, ceremony, expressive art, hiking, kayaking & more. All of this with the intention of releasing who you are not so you can reconnect and reclaim who you truly are!

It will be a wonderful weekend for self discovery, healing & connection.
