The holidays are supposed to be joyful. But so many times they can also bring a long list of expectations, commitments, shopping, cooking, family obligations, and the feeling that there is always something else to do.What if, instead of adding another thing to your holiday to-do list, you came home to yourself for some rest, renewal and self-care?
Join Kathi at Eclectic Sanctuary for a special day retreat created around one simple idea: You deserve to experience the holidays, not just survive them.
We'll spend the day moving, breathing, connecting with nature, learning, resting, reflecting, and letting go.
🌿 Grounding Yoga
Begin the day with a slow, mindful all-levels practice designed to help you arrive fully in the present moment.
🌲 Forest Bathing
We'll head outdoors for a guided sensory experience through the Sanctuary property, slowing down, noticing, breathing, and reconnecting with the natural world.
🥗 Nourishing Lunch + Connection
A relaxed meal and time to connect with others without rushing to the next thing.
💭 Holiday Stress Workshop
We'll explore the stress and expectations that often accompany the holidays, including boundaries, the endless “shoulds,” and how to protect your peace when the season starts asking too much of you.
🧘♀️ Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra
Settle into supported poses and deep rest, giving your body and nervous system permission to slow down.
📝 Your Holiday Self-Care Plan
Take some time to reflect on what you need this season and create a simple, personal plan to help you honor those needs.
☕ Quiet Sanctuary Time
No agenda. No productivity required. Enjoy the fireplace, journal, walk, sip tea, read, or simply do nothing.
🔥 Bonfire + Release Ritual
As the day comes to a close, we'll gather around the fire to symbolically release what we don't want to carry into the holiday season and make space for what we want to bring with us instead.
We'll close with gratitude, intention, and a final meditation.
This isn't about adding another item to your holiday calendar. It's about giving yourself permission to pause. To breathe. To rest. To reconnect.
To remember to Keep Calm, it's just the holidays and that you belong on your own holiday list, too. ❤️
