Root & Rise Retreat
At the edge of the seasons when winter begins to soften and spring quietly stirs beneath the earth ,we gather for a weekend of release, renewal, and gentle awakening.
Root & Rise Retreat is a sacred threshold.
A pause between what has been and what is about to bloom.
Here, you are invited to slow down, ground your body, clear emotional weight, and awaken your energy with intention just as nature prepares to rise again.
