The Lodge at Sweetwater Studios Presents - Women Who Run with the Wolves: A Full Moon Women's Retreat
Join Kelsey Wishik and Jaime Ray for this full moon women’s retreat inspired by the wisdom of "Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype" and created by the walks and experiences of these two exceptional female facilitators.
This retreat is a deep dive into your wild feminine nature with intention to move us from a place of doing into a place of being. By exploring the essence of parts of you that have been hidden from the world, a power emerges that only you know and hold. This all-inclusive weekend retreat is an individual experience held in a practice of community teachings and support women need to provide for each other.
Honoring each other’s sacred being is a connection that will strengthen your wild nature, encouraging the fire within to burn bold and bright. We will practice the art of storytelling, body appreciation, and soul listening that will free the power that has been smothered through ridicule and competition.
"Our intention is to share our work as healing practitioners to provide a safe space to help you on your journey. We will be using techniques from our studies in yoga and sound therapy to cultivate the ritual of conscious feminine being."
We suggest you familiarize yourself with the book "Women Who Run with the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype" and/or writings and talks of Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés prior to retreat but not a requirement.
All Participants Will Leave With: A ceremonial original art card print by Kelsey Wishik and informational packet discussing the practices shared during the event for take-home purposes and integration, as well as a list of all mantras from the retreat. Additionally attendees will return home with a full moon ritual specific for the weekend and specific for them. This full moon ritual will be written for each attendee to take home and to continue self exploration for this and all future full moons!
Additional Add Ons: Both Kelsey and Jaime are excited to offer either Akashic readings, exploring and healing energy imprints from past lives to shift the energetics held in the now OR private energy healing/Marma point sessions at the discounted rate of $45/hr (almost 50% off!). A sign up sheet will be sent out the week before the event. If you're particularly interested do note which one you're interested in on your sign up form.
