RETREATS: The Complete 2026 Calendar…FIVE 2027 Dates & Destinations Are Confirmed!

Retreat is your BIRTHRIGHT.
SANCTUARY is our responsibility.

Retreat is both birthright and responsibility. Awakening our senses and our devotion to immersion with others in the blessings of the natural world isn’t only good for us and fun, but a radical act of healing that can ripple out to make real changes in the world.  

Our 2026 & 2027 Retreats are OPEN FOR REGISTRATION NOW..

Oak Is The Waiting Tree, A Retreat to Old Field Point & The Legend of A Saving Grace
September 17-20, 2026 (SOLD OUT)
Old Field Point, Elkton, MD
Our luxury escape to this dreamy lodge sitting high above the Elk River at the head of the Chesapeake Bay often begs due reverence for the river itself, the magic and wonder of water purely present and in ever-motion.  But what of the trees?!  The gardens, the grounds which have been rewilding now for 7 years!  And a story to tell of a savior Oak at the center of it all!
“Out on the hill, the old Oak still stands:
stag-headed, fire-struck, bare-crowned,
stubbornly holding its ground.
Poplar is the whispering tree,
Rowan is the sheltering tree,
Willow is the weeping tree –

and Oak is the waiting tree.”

 

Oh to honor the trees and our own resemblance in stature, stability, reach, resilience, connection and growth!  We’ll learn of secrets twisted round in the roots, grow taller in our limbs lifted to the ether and practice the endurance of a community of women who help, protect and heal each other.  Treehouse dreams, the ancient heat of bonfire, meandering and deep earthen practices for grounding and peace will keep us present for one of the most powerful shifts in the year.  Will you wait with us?
This 4 day/3 night retreat promises yoga, meditation, swimming, ceremony, fables and Celtic Tree lore.  All curriculum, materials, lodging and sumptuous harvest meals are included.  4 Private rooms are available at $1036. 6 shared rooms are available at $960.  Reservations are made on a first come/first served basis.
Your $290 deposit will save your spot. Maximum of 10 guests.
All Saints & Witches, A Samhain Soiree Holy Day Retreat
Sunday, November 1, 2026  9am-5pm (SOLD OUT, CONTACT ME TO BE PUT ON THE WAITING LIST)
This will be the last retreat of 2026, in the full format of previous day retreats and in the Spirit of December gatherings past.  A last HUZZAH in the year of the Fire Horse will involve a bit of forensics to decipher the antics and alignments during a year gone mad.  Recapping isn’t always helpful, but if we take a good hard look at what’s come before, we may feel and focus our wayfinding into the next passages with heightened awareness and clarity of interior motivations and truths.
This final retreat promises to illuminate the ways each of us weave the holy and “wicked” fibers of our lives in the intricate patterns which serve our high hearts and the greater good.  We mark the crossroads with Hecate and prepare our pathwork towards the Solstice holiday in the company of women we love, in the comfort of our Bethel Road home.  The full cost of retreat is $244 which includes yoga, ceremony, all programming, welcome noshes, Luncheon feast by Tara Young, craft supplies & materials.
A minimum of 5 guests.  A maximum of 9 guests.  The deadline for registration is September 26.
Your $90 deposit will hold your spot.

2027 is RETREAT READY, With FIVE Phenomenal Getaways Near & Far

Amelia Island Beach Bash Getaway,
Or Where In The World is ocean earth wind fire
February 10-14, 2027 in Fernandina Beach, FL (SOLD OUT)

Join me in a secluded, luxury home for a 4-Night Beach Bash for my Birthday, February 10-14, 2027.
Let’s celebrate change, congratulate moi on a wild ride around the sun and get you out of Winter’s doldrums in my new hometown! Explore the gorgeous beaches of Amelia Island, the darling and hip town of Fernandina Beach, historic sites, birds!, boneyard beach, a body love/salt life yoga/ritual immersion and the side perk of a little whimsy with my grandkids (and Elliot & John too!)

Sounds fun, right? NO GIFTS! You know how I am striving now to part with nearly ALL my belongings. The joy of receiving you into my new neck of the woods and making brand new memories with you is the gift I long to be given. Also, you’ll be paying me!

4 nights lodging, 2 brunches, 2 dinners, welcome happy hour, yoga, ceremony, hikes, a tour at Fort Clinch and plenty of beach time and chill time all included. Jax is the airport and I find Frontier to be fine! American flies direct from Phila too! You’ll get the rich wonder and engagement you’ve come to expect from retreating with me, but also the relaxed and easy togetherness of a girl’s getaway…nights out, sleeping in, lounging about and being us.

Designated “best for foodies”, Lonely Planet counts Fernandina Beach one of the best in all of Florida: “On Amelia Island in far northeastern Florida, Fernandina Beach oozes coastal charm and Southern hospitality. Its riverside historic district is filled with Victorian-style boutiques, chef-driven restaurants and Florida’s oldest bar. Aside from the annual Shrimp Festival in early May, everything, including beaches, is typically blissfully uncrowded. A Deep South beach town reminiscent of Charleston, South Carolina, be sure to explore Boneyard Beach, strewn with hauntingly beautiful sun-bleached driftwood.”

It is so wonderful…would I be moving somewhere not cool?!
