Sacred Journey: Healing Within Through Personal & Cultural Awareness
Friday, October 1 – Sunday, October 3, 2021
Retreat on a sacred journey into a world full of natural ancient wisdom and teachings. The wisdom of your body and soul. Arrive with an open mind, and leave with an open heart. Explore ancient and modern traditions to connect with parts of yourself which may be neglected or unexplored. Join healer Arrole Lawrence and our Indigenous educator as you are guided through inner transformation practices and traditional Indigenous teachings.
Everything will be taken care of for you so you can immerse and relax in the teachings and practices you experience. The itinerary has plenty of free time for you to unwind and enjoy the beautiful natural environment you’ll find yourself in. It’s a getaway for simplicity and returning to basics to embody the wisdom you already have within. All you have to do is show up, and do what serves you!
With daily yoga and meditation, healthy meals, and workshops that will heighten your knowledge and awareness of our ancestral and historical roots and your innate wisdom and creativity, you will leave this experience with newfound awakening. Find balance in your life; taking techniques and memories home that will strengthen your mind, body and spirit.
The sacred healing traditions you will be introduced to are a gift not be missed. You will be taken through a journey of Indigenous ancestral teachings, traditional plant medicine wisdom (not ayahuasca or anything else ingested), smudging, and a fire circle. All this with the backdrop that is Sugar Ridge, pure nature, wholesome food, yoga and meditation.
If you feel your soul longing for this connection then join us!
