Self-Love Day Retreat
Register here
In the midst of life's constant changes, we invite you to a day dedicated to reconnecting with yourself, nature, and community. This retreat offers a sanctuary to breathe deeply, embrace peace, and rediscover the love that resides within you.
Morning Gathering
We'll begin our day in the warmth of our heated yurt, sharing a cup of rose tea with Bala. This time is set aside for deep introductions, fostering a sense of connection and setting the tone for our journey together.
Despacho Ceremony
Led by community member Robin Guidice, we'll engage in the creation of a despacho—a traditional Andean offering that symbolizes gratitude and the harmonious balance of the universe. Together, we'll assemble this sacred bundle of chocolate, fruits, flowers and nature and ceremonially bury it in the forest, grounding our intentions and honoring our bond with the earth.
Nourishing Lunch
Enjoy a wholesome, organic, plant-based meal, providing nourishment for our bodies as we continue our inward journey.
Sound Healing Session
In the afternoon, Becky Shanks will guide us through a profound sound healing experience. The resonant tones of crystal bowls, combined with Becky's soothing voice, will lead us into a deep meditative state, fostering inner peace and heart-centered awareness.
Closing Circle
We'll conclude our retreat by sharing ceremonial-grade cacao, reflecting on our experiences, and extending loving-kindness to ourselves and each other.
This retreat is an opportunity to pause, nurture your soul, and embrace the love you deserve. Join us at Just Love Forest this Valentine's season to honor yourself in the most profound way.
