Yoga
I will be leading Yoga classes throughout the weekend and will be offering modifications for people newer to the practice and also extensions for those who are more experienced for a complete mind/body reset at this Women's Retreat March 2025
Forest Bathing
The term "forest bathing" emerged in Japan in the 1980s as a physiological and psychological exercise called shinrin-yoku (“forest bathing” or “taking in the forest atmosphere”). The purpose is twofold: to offer an eco-antidote to tech-boom burnout and to allow participants to reconnect with the natural design of nature.
The Healing Benefits of Nature
We will have opportunities each day to enjoy the beautiful 236 acres of woods, streams, gorges, and walking paths. It offers a panoramic views as distant as Pennsylvania.
Researchers are now amassing a body of evidence, proving what we all know to be true: nature is good for us and has both long and short term mental and physical health benefits.
JourneyDance™
JourneyDance™ is a transformational dance form that combines freestyle and structured movement to inspire you to get out of your mind and into your body.
The JourneyDance™ Transformational Dance Movement Flow leads participants on a ritual journey of physical and emotional transformation .
There is no previous dance experience necessary!
Circle Work
Circle Work is a nurturing and spacious practice that honors the feminine spirit. Women sit in a circle and hold sacred space to listen deeply, both to their own hearts and souls and to one another. These circles create ripples of healing and transformation and foster inner and outer peace.
Transformation and Connection
You will experience a transformation through all of our rejuvenating practices, Mindful Yoga, Meditation, Gatherings, along with free time for reflection, connection with nature, Journeydance and more.
Amenities
Unwind and Relax
The comfortable rooms have excellent soundproofing with a large window in each overlooking the beautiful grounds.
We will be staying at the Light on the Hill Lodge where there are 18 single rooms.
There are also 4 double rooms where if you choose to room with a friend!
Delicious Gormet & Vegetarian Food
Light on the Hill’s cooks prepare meals in the lodge’s commercial kitchen. Meals at Light on the Hill are gourmet vegetarian with many vegan options. They use organic ingredients wherever possible. The cooks receive high praise about the food that is served.
Light On The Hill cooks are able to accommodate simple dietary restrictions such as gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan. However, if a person has a more restrictive diet than this, they suggest that the person bring their own food. Those wanting meat may bring cold cuts and cans of tuna, etc. but no meat is allowed to be cooked on the premises.
