A Spring Renewal Retreat
A Weekend of Self-Discovery, Healing & Creative Expression
Hosted by Elham & Hossein Jalali | Guest Artist: Jennifer Jennar
Lake Osceola Retreat | Osceola, Wisconsin
Come Home to Yourself
What if you could return to the little child within you and offer the love, reassurance, and encouragement you may have needed all along?
Join us for a nurturing spring weekend at Lake Osceola Retreat, where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and gently explore your inner child through movement, meditation, creative expression, nature, and sound.
Through guided reflection and a meaningful acrylic painting workshop, you will have the opportunity to discover the words your inner child longs to hear.
Perhaps it’s You Are Enough, You Are Loved, You Matter, or a message that is uniquely yours.
Together, we will create space for self-compassion, playful exploration, emotional connection, and renewal.
This experience is not about being an artist or creating a perfect painting. It’s about giving yourself permission to express, explore, and create from the heart.
You will leave with a personal 16 × 20-inch acrylic painting—a lasting reminder of the love and encouragement you choose to give yourself.
Meet Your Artist & Creative Guide: Jennifer Narr
Jennifer Narr is a Minnesota-based intuitive artist, creative guide, and workshop facilitator who believes art has the power to help us reconnect with ourselves, express our emotions, and discover new possibilities.
A self-taught artist, Jennifer discovered painting during a challenging chapter in her life. What began as a personal outlet for self-expression grew into a passion for helping others experience the freedom and joy of creativity.
With a bachelor's degree in Psychology, a master's degree in Human Behavior, and certifications in hypnotherapy, yoga, and Reiki, Jennifer brings a unique blend of creativity, reflection, and personal growth to her workshops.
Her artwork is known for its bold colors, expressive textures, and meaningful messages inspired by nature, resilience, individuality, and the human experience.
Through her workshops, Jennifer creates welcoming spaces where participants can explore their creativity without judgment or the pressure to be perfect. Her approach encourages personal expression, curiosity, and connection, reminding participants that you don't have to consider yourself an artist to create something meaningful.
For the upcoming Inner Child Art Workshop, Jennifer will guide participants through a reflective and creative experience centered on discovering the words they may have needed to hear growing up and transforming those messages into a personal 16×20 acrylic painting.
Her philosophy is simple:
Bold art. Deep connection. Made to be felt.
Jennifer is the founder of Jennifer Narr Art in Elk River, Minnesota
