Camping is $30 a night per person. You will receive help to transport your tent etc. a short distance away from the car parking lot. There are 7 rooms onsite for $100 a night, taxes included. You can arrange with a friend or two to share a room and split the cost. Most rooms have one queen bed with a bathroom and shower for two or three rooms to use. You are welcome to bring a cot or foamie for shared accomodations. You are also welcome to get a room offsite, but are asked to be on time and attend all the sessions, as they are divinely cumulative in the creation of your opportunity for transformation.
) Can we bring our teen daughters or nieces or babies / toddlers ?
Our intention is that this is a gathering for adults 18 and over, so that moms and lifegiving, caring women have a place and time to be nurtured and to give to themselves. It is a personal growth process for the weekend that can elicit a deeply personal journey. For this reason, this retreat is not suitable for moms who have toddlers or babies. We understand that babies and moms are deeply attached and the divided attention will not give you as a mom the full experience, and it is important that other women present can focus on themselves as well. We trust that moms of older children will take the magic and your learnings back home to your children and loved ones from a place of being filled, empowered and rejuvenated….
) Can women come for one day?
In creating Sacred Space for deep safety and transformation, we are not able to have women come for one day. Everyone’s energy creates a beautiful container, and we need to know that everyone is there for the entire weekend ….
AND you are encouraged to listen to your own heart and needs and there may be times when you may need to be on your own for a part of the day or evening … Please know your presence is noticed and inform the team or a sister to pass the message on, if you are not joining your sisters for a session.
