IDEAL FOR: All levels including beginners

Join us during Mother's Day weekend, for a soul-stirring overnight retreat. Through a blend of ancient rituals, sound healing, meditation, and soul inquiry practices, we will connect with our maternal ancestors (Mothers, Grandmothers, Great Grandmothers, etc.) breaking toxic generational patterns, and cultivating healing, peace, and love.

Research suggests that we may carry up to seven generations of trauma in our bodies. Unhealthy patterns are unconsciously passed from one generation to the next, keeping us trapped in states of suffering, scarcity, anger, shame, etc. Together, will embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing, honoring the wisdom and resilience of our maternal ancestors while also acknowledging the pain and challenges they may have experienced.

During our weekend together, we will:

- Enjoy sound healing sessions and drumming ceremonies to connect with our maternal ancestors and heal ancestral lines
- Explore our roots through journaling, dream analysis, and reflection
- Identify and heal patterns of generational trauma within our maternal lineage
- Receive wisdom and guidance from our maternal ancestors
- Experience a meditative labyrinth walk with the ancestors and sound healing by the bonfire
- Participate in guided Despacho and chord cutting rituals let go of painful generational patterns and cultivate healing and joy
- Enjoy a Saturday night fire circle with optional cocktails and wine (weather permitting) as well as a guided Cacao Ceremony
- Engage in gentle yoga and movement (yoga classes will be appropriate for all body types and levels—no experience is needed). 
- Enjoy time for personal reflection, rest, and enjoyment of the grounds
