Living in Balance with Nature: A Seasonal Wisdom Retreat
January 25, 2026 | 11:00–5:00
Whispers of Nature Sacred Grove | Nebo, NC
This one-day retreat is an invitation to remember your place within the living cycles of Nature.
Drawing from seasonal wisdom traditions and the Medicine Wheel, we explore how the rhythms of the Earth mirror the rhythms within us — guiding us toward balance, clarity, and wholeness.
Together, we will gently walk through the teachings of all four seasons, while allowing Winter and the North to be our primary guide. Winter invites stillness, reflection, rest, and deep listening — offering medicine for this time of year and for the places within us that are asking to slow, integrate, and renew.
Through guided reflection, nature-based teachings, circle sharing, and embodied practices, you will be supported in:
*Understanding the seasons as living teachers
*Recognizing where you are in your own inner cycle
*Releasing what no longer serves
*Rooting into wisdom, resilience, and inner knowing
This is not about one “right” way of teaching the Medicine Wheel, but about listening to the land, the season, and your own inner compass.
The Setting
Whispers of Nature Sacred Grove is a sanctuary of natural serenity, nestled beside a flowing stream among the trees in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The land itself becomes a teacher as we gather, walk, reflect, and sit in circle.
What We Will Explore:
*Seasonal wisdom traditions and the Medicine Wheel as guides for living in balance
*The teachings of the four directions and their corresponding seasons, elements, and energies
*The North & Winter as teachers of wisdom, stillness, and inner strength
*The center of the Wheel — representing self, Spirit, and our interconnectedness with all life
Experiential Practices Include:
*Medicine Walk — walking the land with intention and learning to receive guidance from Nature
*Nature Prescription — working with the elements and seasonal energies for grounding and clarity
*Reflection & Fire Circle — sharing insights and integration in a supportive, held space
This retreat is experiential, heart-centered, and inclusive — honoring many wisdom traditions while remaining rooted in the living landscape around us.
Who This Is For:
This gathering is open to women 18 years and older.
No prior experience or knowledge of the Medicine Wheel is necessary — only an open heart and a willingness to listen.
