SUMMARY:Spring Emergence: A Seasonal Retreat
DESCRIPTION:A faint gauze of spring green is appearing on the prairie’s winter browns\, welcoming you to look for your own signs of new growth. What is emerging can’t be hurried\, but calls for patient restraint and holding a space for quiet wonder. This spring retreat invites you sit with the first indications of a new season of life – on the prairie and in your own life and heart. It will hold space for your hushed anticipation and gentle tending. \nConversations about the season\, walks on the prairie\, naps\, art\, movement\, journaling\, great meals\, and welcoming accommodations will all be a part of what you can expect when you arrive. A renewed connection to nature and to yourself\, along with joy in the anticipation of new things emerging are what you can expect to take with you when you leave. \nSeasonal Retreats\nEach season this year\, we will offer a different seasonal retreat. They will open spaces where each different season can offer its unique wisdom to us in the changing seasons of our lives. Each retreat is a two-day\, one-night experience at Holy Wisdom with cozy accommodations\, delicious meals\, spacious time periods for solitude\, reading and rest and contemplative conversations with other retreatants.
