Autumn Equinox Camping Retreat: Rest, Release and Renew

September 25-26, 2021, Midnight Rose Farm, Thompson OH

​

Come together in community for a camping retreat in nature to celebrate the Autumn Equinox!

All women welcome; this is an LGBTQ+ affirming retreat!

As we transition from long days and the busyness of summer, many of us may be feeling a deep need for rest, grounding and rejuvenation. We may be feeling exhausted, over extended and just needing a break from day to day life.  

We have cultivated so much since the spring equinox and now it is time to enjoy the harvest and the fruits of your labor. The Autumn Equinox gives us permission to start slowing down, resting, releasing what no longer serves and going inward to reflect on our lives so we can show up in service to ourselves, our families and the greater community.

Autumn Equinox is a day of equal light and dark and it's also is the beginning of longer nights and shorter days. In the natural world, the leaves are falling and life is starting to go into dormancy, we too reflect these changes within us. It's time to come into balance within ourselves, to shed what no longer serves and start thinking about all the ways we want to nourished and renew in the months ahead.

Are you longing for?

-Time for connection and sharing your heart with others in community

-Time to unwind, to go inward and reset your nervous system
