Anchor & Alchemize

This retreat is for anyone who is on the verge or change, feels called to create (or re-create themselves), express or birth something new into the world or who is seeking a tranquil, purposeful and transformative reset. This weekend is all about anchoring into the deepest, truest, long-forgotten parts of ourselves and the subsequent recalibration of body, mind and soul alchemy that follows.

Anchor: to root or ground down to Earth

Alchemize: to transform the nature or properties of something

Join us for a guided experience anchored in the transformative power nature and how its health (and healing) benefits transform the way we see and experience our lives and the living world around us.

Come as you are and plan on returning home with a renewed sense of grounding, creative expression, clarity and inner harmony.

The retreat runs from:

Mar 7 - Mar 9, 2025
