The Spirit of the West Coast Retreat: A Journey Back to Self is a four-day immersive experience rooted in conscious living in nature. Through ceremony, guided journeys, movement, storytelling, and time on the land, participants are invited to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and remember their place within the living web of life. The retreat is intentionally spacious, allowing both structured experiences and quiet integration, honouring the rhythms of the body, the land, and the collective.

Highlights Include:

• Opening ceremony with medicine people, honouring land, lineage, and intention
• Daily optional morning yoga, movement, and breath practices
• Facilitated general sessions and immersive workshops
• Nature-based group time
• Evening with the Storytellers, sharing wisdom, lived experience, and ancestral threads
• A guided breathwork journey for release and integration
• A deeply restorative sound healing ceremony
• A closing healing integration circle to honour the journey home to self
