Weaving Straw Into Gold 🍂✨
Women’s Fall Equinox Day Retreat
September 20 | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
As the light begins to soften and the air shifts toward autumn, the Fall Equinox invites us into a sacred point of balance…
a threshold between what has been and what is quietly waiting to emerge. 🌾
In the midst of full and busy lives, it is rare to be offered a space where you can simply arrive…
and be held.
be seen.
be supported.
be gently nurtured, just as you are. 💛
This day has been created as a soft landing place—
a space where you are not asked to perform or push,
but are instead invited to rest into community, connection, and care.
Together, we gather in circle as women—
weaving the threads of our individual stories into a shared tapestry…
honouring the transitions within and around us,
and tending to the quieter inner shifts that often go unseen.
Throughout the day, each offering has been thoughtfully chosen to support you in meeting this seasonal turning:
🍫 Cacao Ceremony with Yafa
As we cross the threshold into autumn, cacao invites us to gently open the heart and land more fully in the present moment. Through ritual and shared intention, this ceremony creates a space to acknowledge what has been, soften what is held, and orient toward what is emerging—held in the warmth of community connection.
🌊 Movement, Qigong & Sound Healing with Laura
As the external season shifts, the body, too, is often holding the residue of summer’s pace. Through intentional movement and qigong, we support the flow of energy through the meridian system—helping to release stagnation, restore balance, and harmonize the internal landscape. Sound healing then invites a deeper level of integration, allowing the nervous system to settle and recalibrate.
🌿 Aromatherapy & Herbal Support with Tanja
The transition into fall asks us to begin turning inward, supporting our immune systems, digestion, and emotional resilience. Through plant allies and aromatic support, this offering connects us to nature’s wisdom—guiding us in grounding, nourishing, and gently preparing the body and spirit for the cooler, quieter months ahead.
🧘‍♀️ Restorative Yoga & Meditation with Jill
As the days shorten, the body longs for slower rhythms. This practice creates space to pause, soften, and deeply rest, allowing what has been stirred during the day to settle and integrate. Through stillness and guided awareness, we are invited to listen inwardly—to what is ready to be released, and what is asking to be carried forward.
☕ Nourishment Throughout the Day
A lovingly prepared lunch and refreshments will be offered, along with local organic tea—supporting you in feeling sustained, cared for, and held not only energetically, but physically. This is part of the practice too… learning to receive nourishment.
This is a day to receive.
To allow the body to soften, the nervous system to settle, and the heart to open in a field of shared presence.
A remembering that we are not meant to move through change alone…
that there is medicine in being witnessed…
and beauty in gathering at the turning of the seasons. ✨
