THE MATRIARCHAL MOON: MOTHER’S DAY RETREAT

Celebrate Mother’s Day in a special way at this in-person retreat designed to honour the powerful energy of mothers, daughters, and mother figures. Connect, relax, and recharge with like-minded souls in a warm, welcoming space. Expect soulful activities, heart-opening moments, and plenty of love.
May is a season of profound softening, where the old growth supports the new. We invite mothers, daughters, and the women who hold us up to step out of their daily roles and return to the forest as equals—two women, one lineage, sharing a moment of deep, restorative silence.

This year, our gathering falls under the New Moon, the quietest pocket of the lunar cycle. While the world celebrates with noise, we celebrate with Intention. This is the "Empty Vessel" phase—the perfect celestial moment to plant new seeds for your relationship.

The Experience: We will honour the "Mirror Stories"—the ways we see our own reflections in one another—and create a safe, steady land to listen to what the heart whispers when the outside world is quieted. Together, we will audit your shared connection, ensuring the "well" between you is clear, calm, and overflowing.

The Outcome: You will participate in a New Moon "Seed Planting" ritual on our agricultural sanctuary, physically and energetically setting a new frequency for your lineage. You will leave not just as mother and daughter, but as two sovereign women rooted in a shared, unshakable peace. Bring your moms, daughters, friends, or just yourself for a day filled with joy and good vibes!

Info: We begin by stepping out of the "working mind" and into nature's rhythm. A sensory greeting with sage and lavender, somatic grounding and meditation, intention setting and seasonal natural tea infusion.

Info: A guided walk through the forest to collect sensory items that speak to your truest self, followed by a high-vibe fast, vibrant, seasonally-aligned harvest lunch, served in quietude to fully awaken your senses.

Info: The afternoon starts by creating a permanent "Blueprint of Connection" using your forest finds and the sun, followed by a courageous reflection exercise and somatic movement session. We’ll finish with some breathwork exercises (pranayama), journaling, and a deep-vibration Sound Bath / Yoga Nidra to seal in your peace.

Info: Closing Circle: Honoring the shifts we've made together.
The Anchor: You’ll leave with a hand-harvested lavender sachet—a physical reminder of the calm you found today.
Optional Sauna Detox: Feel free to linger in the heat to detox any remaining stagnation.
