Seasonal Retreats: The Importance of Self-Care

These retreats were formed, from the number one need that I see in my day-to-day clinical practice – a need for nourishing self-care and the space to stop and simply BE, for a bit. They are focused on self-care, deep nourishment and time away from the daily demands and busyness.

Fall Self-Care Retreat

Fall is a time when all of nature, starts to let go of the things that are no longer needed, and prepare for a time of deep stillness and rest. Things that are nonessential, fall away. Resources are stored up, and only the very essential make the cut for the coming season of rest.
As humans, we too, are subject to these cycles of energy and activity, and fall is a perfect time to let go of the unnecessary, to start to listen to that deep wise voice that lives within. It’s a time to become more still, to send the external world, the responsibilities and the noise away for a bit and come home to yourself. These seasonal retreats are created with exactly this in mind. They are set up for you to get some much needed self-care time in Beautiful Muskoka so you can be surrounded by nature and immersed in fullness of the season.

A nourishing and safe container is created so you will have all your needs taken care of: Delicious seasonal food, daily yoga &meditation as well as a therapeutic acupuncture or shiatsu sessions to nourish and replenish your mind and body. The retreat is also set up with some simple teachings based on the wisdom of Eastern medicine to help you embrace the true elements of the season. I’ve included simple prompts and seasonally based questions to help you connect to your inner world and what ever is present. This is to nourish your Spirit and Soul.

There is time spent as a group in respectful conversation but it is balanced with silence and ample free time to allow you to find your way home to yourself and take care of whatever it is you need to do to feel replenished. Read a book, take a walk on the local trails or just spend your time looking out the window and simply be-ing.

I create the space and do the work so you don’t have to. Engage as much or as little as you like. This is your time.
