January 11th 10am-6pm Mettabee Farm, Hillsdale, NY Give yourself the gift of nourishment, deep rest, and healing in this daylong women’s retreat. In a world that's constantly pushing us to be and do more, resting is a revolutionary act. It’s a chance for us to slow down and listen to our truth, to nurture body, mind, and soul so we can more fully serve the greater good. The dark, quiet days of winter offer a precious opportunity to take refuge in ourselves and kindle the light within; to be held like a seed underground so we can restore our vital energy and come back into full flower once again. By tending ourselves, we tend the earth. And in sourcing our lives from this deeply feminine place, we can be a force for lasting, positive and revolutionary change in our wider world.

The Autumn Equinox is a rich time for reflection and renewal—a time to store summer’s sweetness in our body and soul, and nurture intentions for the season to come. During this day-long retreat, we will relax into our feminine rhythms through ritual and deep rest practices, receive nourishment from the earth and each other, and honor all we have birthed, learned, and let go of in preparation for winter. With the guidance and support of three diverse facilitators, —Carrie Grossman, Julie Kunz, and Pooja Prema—we’ll invoke the healing wisdom of the elements, imbibe in the medicine of herbs and flowers, and experience the alchemy of our voices and breath to support, nourish, and sustain us in the dark months to come.
