This retreat is from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. please arrive by 8:30 a.m. if possible to settle in for the day. Something new...we will have an hour at the end from 3-4 p.m. for you to hang out with the other women attending this mini retreat to bond further and connect even more before heading home.
Please read the entire description. Thank you :-)
This is the first time I will have a co-leader at a mini retreat at ZenHorse. I am very excited to have this experience with her. Herbalist and ritualist Jennifer Jarvis-Hirt will be joining us and bringing with her her immense knowledge of how to bring meaning to everyday life through anchoring ritual into daily self-care.
Are you ready to meet your stronger self? Are you ready to dig deep and energetically open your heart to your ancient DNA that has been "sleeping" until now? We, as women, are being called to allow space for this part of ourselves to emerge. You will participate in a guided meditation to take you to "the bones" to access your ancestors. They will be your support system moving into the winter season of introspection.
The wild mustang is a symbol of freedom & resilience. Two characteristics you need to embody to move into the future where you will be a leader. You need to free yourself from your self inflicted walls and boundaries. You will need resilience to carry your message forward.
Horse medicine is POWER. Symbolizing healing, strength, and wisdom gained from the deep, transformative, and insightful relationship humans have with horses.
"Horse medicine" spiritually refers to the deep, transformative wisdom and healing received through a connection with horses, which can be seen as spirit animals or spiritual allies. This concept goes beyond the physical and emotional, extending into the spiritual realm to provide guidance and facilitate self-discovery by mirroring emotions, mirroring human behavior, and inspiring virtues like freedom, selflessness, and resilience. Connecting with the horse spirit can help individuals tap into vitality, overcome obstacles, and find inner peace.
Preparing for winter, the month of November can be a very rich time for you to refocus your energy for the journey inward. We will focus on this and you will leave with more clarity on what your personal focus will be for the winter ahead.
This retreat will help open you up energetically to clear any stuck ancestral energy and remove any blocks, through correct cord cutting, that are impeding your growth forward. Along with cord cutting we will do a shamanic drum circle with the horses. Please bring a drum if you have one. If you don't have one, no worries, I have plenty of extras.
Through this shamanic drum circle, a gathering tea ceremony, a meditational walk in the medicinal labyrinth and a proper cord cutting, you will awaken your ancient DNA. We will embody the "horse bone medicine" to help us go deep. We are in a period in time where we, as women, are being called to come back to our place of leadership to lead with a strong sense of self, with fortitude, with feminine strength, with compassion and love.
To lead ourselves first, then our families, and then our communities.
There will be a meditation with the wild mustangs, calling of the bones, conversations around the ceremonial tribal drum, and a intentional meditative labyrinth walk, a day filled with rich opportunities for you to mirror and be mirrored in your greatness.
There will be prep work for you to do the week before the event, such as journaling, an earth, wind, fire, water ceremony, and a piece of writing that will be burned at the end of the event.
I am asking for you to be in silence on your way to the retreat, no cell phone except for directions, no radio, no music...you'll be given a mantra a few days ahead of the event. You'll be repeating this on the morning drive.
What to bring: dress according to the weather. The meditation with the mustangs will be an out door event, as will the walking of the labyrinth. Bring water, a drum if you have one, a blanket, and your lunch/snacks (we'll take a 30 minute break to nourish ourselves). You will receive a pen, a journal and a crystal that will hold all of the enriching energy of the day. It will be used as a reminder of the work you did and to give you support on remaining focused on the goal for the winter months.
Cost: $111 (you can work out a payment plan before the event if you wish). To sign up message me. There is no ticket link. Once you have paid you'll receive an email with more details and instructions.
NOTE: We have been guided to offer 3 full scholarships to those women who need a bit of help. First come first serve. Message me or Jennifer Jarvis to have a conversation. We need to have 10 PAID participants to honor the 3 full scholarships ;-)
ALSO: if you have a little extra to "donate" for the 3 scholarships we would appreciate it. Just let us know.
This event is open to any woman 18 years of age or older.
I suggest you sign up early as there are a limited number of spots available given the nature of this retreat.
Jennifer and I look forward to working with you this November.
