Winter's Wisdom Day Retreat
Essencia Vitalis | Wheaton, Illinois
12:30–5:00 PM
Nourish your spirit, awaken your inner fire, and gather in sisterhood for a cozy winter retreat designed to ground, restore, and inspire you during the darkest part of the year.
A magical afternoon where ritual, movement, creativity, and seasonal nourishment converge to reconnect you with the wisdom winter offers - stillness, reflection, resilience, and renewal.
Your Retreat Experience Includes:
Women’s Winter Wisdom Circle:
Arrive and be welcomed in a sacred women’s circle complete with a smudging ceremony, an oracle card drawing, and space to connect with yourself and one another. Set your intention for the season ahead and honor the quiet medicine of winter.
Grounding Yoga Practice:
Move into a beginner-friendly mat yoga flow to release stagnation, awaken your inner fire, and reconnect with your intuitive body. This accessible practice will melt tension and leave you feeling open, embodied, and alive.
Evergreen Wreath Crafting + Natural Ornament Making:
Gather in creative joy as we craft lush, fragrant evergreen wreaths, honoring the resilience, protection, and ever-green vitality these sacred trees hold through the coldest months. We’ll also create beautiful, dried orange ornaments adorned with natural quartz crystals to bring light, cleansing, and intention into your home for the winter season.
Holiday Lounge + Seasonal Delights:
Relax in the luxurious Essencia Vitalis lounge, sip holiday-inspired beverages, and enjoy festive charcuterie (gluten-free options available) while connecting with new friends and savoring the warmth of the season.
Optional Add-On: Salt Cave Session: Complete your retreat with a deeply restorative halotherapy experience in the Salt Cave. This upgrade is available for an additional fee and offers the perfect finishing touch to your afternoon of renewal.
What to Bring:
Comfortable clothing for movement and crafting
Gloves for wreath making (evergreens can be a bit pokey + sappy!)
Yoga mat
Water bottle
Give Yourself the Gift of Renewal: Spaces are intentionally limited to create an intimate and meaningful experience.
Reserve your spot and step into winter with clarity, connection, and inner glow.
