Deeply Rooted, Wildly Alive: A retreat for women

  • Holy Wisdom Monastery (map)

Join Sarah Webber and Shandra Bauer for a day long retreat for women. Held at Holy Wisdom Monastery in Middleton, WI.

DEEPLY ROOTED, WILDLY ALIVE is an immersive day long retreat to tend to your roots, explore connection within community and embody your aliveness.  You will be invited into somatic practices, guided creative exploration including writing and/or drawing, a gentle all levels yoga practice, solo/group time, ritual and integration.  

The retreat is a chance to pause in the midst of summer, connect to the energy and wildness of the forest and prairie, and tap into what brings you ALIVE.  Amidst the uncertainty and chaos we face collectively, we invite you to come together in community, remembering your TRUE belonging. 

Registration is OPEN! Follow THIS link to register. The retreat is limited to 15 participants.

“There is no place so awake and alive as the edge of becoming. But more than that, birthing the kind of woman who can authentically say, 'My soul is my own,' and then embody it in her life, her spirituality, and her community is worth the risk and hardship.” -Sue Monk Kidd
