Sacred Rhythms - Embracing Change Through the Elements

A series of outdoor retreats to support the transition into fall.

Join Gwen of Intentionally Outdoors and Olivia Flood of the Awakened Alchemy for a day retreat in nature. The retreat will feature a guided Forest Therapy walk in nature led by Gwen and a nature-based ceremony led by Olivia.

This is a series of outdoor retreats to support the transition into fall. Each excursion will explore an element in nature and our inherent connection to it. You are invited to connect deeply with the land through your senses, explore your own earthly rhythms within and embrace change through the power of the elements.

By journeying through the elements of nature, you are invited to transform through embodiment and cultivated presence with each aspect of nature. Each alchemical element offers its own energy that encourages and brings change and its through honoring each of these elements that change flows seamlessly.

Please see details for each nature retreat below. You may join for one retreat or all three.
