Women's Rewilding Retreat (ADULT)

Service Description

“She is a force of nature at her core, all the wildness of the universe.” JMG The San Juan Islands Women’s Rewilding Retreat is designed for women to celebrate and renew an embodied connection to the natural world with restorative practice and time for nature immersion in solitude and community. Come alone or bring a friend to experience the wonders of the San Juan Islands with other women who share like values. Rewilding will include a two-night, three-day adventure based at the Rosario Beach Marine Laboratory facility. From the cabins you can view the Straits of Juan de Fuca, the Olympic Mountains, Vancouver Island, and the San Juan Islands. The cabins have a full kitchen, private bath, bedroom, and a porch for taking in the spectacular views. There will be a chartered boat trip (beach landing) to spectacular Cypress Island which is a NRCA of 1,072 acres. This rewilding nature immersion will include the option to do art or journal at a picnic table on the beach or hike the gorgeous trails with a guide or on your own. We will offer restorative Mindfulness in Nature experiences on land and on the boat, Salish Sea Nature Art, and an option for morning outdoor gentle yoga and evening Yoga Nidra (Deep Relaxation). We will have beachfront campfires each evening with s’mores. There is spaciousness built into the schedule for you to simply relax on your porch, hike in Bowman Bay, Deception Pass State Park, or sit on Rosario Head and gaze at the sea. Some of the best tidepools in the state, the Rosario tidepools, are just out the front door! Dinners will include Vegetarian Lasagna and Fidalgo Entrée Salad and desserts by Gere-a-Deli. We are asking that you bring your own breakfast, lunch, and snacks as you will have a full kitchen in your cabins. Herbal teas with local honey will be available in the Library (full window wall view of the Strait) which will be our community gathering place. ​ All cabins are "BYOB - Bring Your Own Bedding (Full size beds)." Enrollment includes a private cabin. If you attend with a friend, partner, or spouse, the rate for the retreat (including a shared cabin) would be $600 pp. Use code REWILDING at checkout for each person and make a note about cabin sharing! Your Guides have many years of experience guiding nature immersion, mindfulness (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) and Hatha Yoga in Nature retreats.
