Five Elements Wellness Retreat

FIVE ELEMENT

Wellness Retreat

The ancient wisdom and power of the Five Elements has been used in spirituality and medicine throughout the world. Explore what these elements reveal about your true nature, the path to your greatest gifts, and how to heal through every season of your life.

Exploring a 2,000 year old lineage of wisdom to understand:

What is my true nature?

What are my unique gifts?

What do I need to heal?

We will work from the model of self-healing as the first important step toward global healing. We will practice listening with our whole body, tracking and learning to meet the deeper needs in ourselves and in others, and expressing our true nature. You will be guided to experience the wisdom of the natural world to support you on your healing journey and in the discovery of your unique constitution.

Join a group of likeminded souls who are ready to dive into this deep, watery terrain, those who are dedicated to awakening and healing for themselves and for all of us. Together we will explore the ancient language of the Earth and her rhythms and learn to interpret the extraordinary wisdom contained within our bodies as well as beneath our feet known as the Five Elements. You will be supported on your journey of discovering your unique constitution so that you can live your most authentic self into the world.

*A Note on Investment: Please choose your tuition level carefully, remembering that our experience of our financial capacity is so deeply subjective, influenced by the incessant messaging from the dominant culture, and a flawed image of wealth. Let’s be guided by way-shower Betty Martin who reminds us that "when we give what we can and not what we can’t, the magick happens.”
