SUMMARY:Winter Rest: A Seasonal Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Winter is a season of slowing down. Days end earlier with less sunlight\, poor driving conditions keep us close to home\, lots of one-pot soups and stews simmer on the stove\, more books get read. The earth rests under blankets of cold and snow and we long for some deep rest\, too. \nThis retreat is an invitation to stop striving and to settle into the silence of winter and the tranquility of the prairie’s seasonal stillness. It is also an invitation to consider our experience of interior winters\, how we can best live in them\, and to welcome how they prepare us for the other seasons of our lives. \nYou can expect conversations about the season\, walks on the prairie\, a long winter’s nap\, opportunities for art\, movement\, journaling\, great meals and warm beds to await you when you arrive. A renewed connection to yourself and to nature are what you can expect to take with you when you leave. \nDates/Times/Schedule\nTues.\, Jan. 19\, 1:00 pm – Thurs.\, Jan. 21\, 2027\, 12:00 pm \nTime for rest\, solitude\, small group conversation\, movement and art \nTuesday afternoon – circle conversations and walking meditations\nWednesday morning – movement/Qigong and circle conversation\nWednesday afternoon/evening – more walking meditations\, journaling and free time; art experience\nThursday morning – circle conversations\, closing reflections \nCost\n$320/person ($295/person early bird registration until December 4th\, 2026) \nThe cost of the retreat includes program\, meals (Tuesday dinner\, Wednesday breakfast and lunch) and overnight room. \nRegister\nThe registration deadline for this retreat is January 11th\, 2027\, or when the retreat fills. \nCancellation policy – if you register but must cancel your registration\, you can receive a 75% refund up until January 11th.
