Come Home to Yourself

You’ve been holding a lot lately.
And maybe you're feeling it in your body... your breath... your spirit.

This summer, gift yourself a weekend to exhale.
Surrounded by nature, nourished by farm-to-table meals, and guided with loving presence—this retreat is a soft landing for your whole self.

What To Expect

  • Accessible practices to release tension, restore vitality, and reconnect with your breath and body. No experience needed.

  • Quiet the busy-ness of day to day life, tune inward, and return to the wisdom of your inner world.


  • Express yourself through playful, non-performative creative practices that invite presence, curiosity, and joy. No experience needed—just a willingness to explore. All supplies are provided.

    Whether it's intuitive art-making, journaling, or gentle improv-inspired movement, creativity becomes a doorway to self-discovery, nervous system regulation, and authentic connection. You don’t have to “be an artist”—you already are.

  • Wholesome meals made with fresh, local ingredients—crafted with care by the chefs at Cedar Crest Lodge.

  • Unstructured time to nap, walk the gardens, journal, or simply be—plus connection with like-hearted women in a warm, non-performative space.
