Ritual & Renewal: Samhain Fall Retreat
Join us autumn 2025 in the coastal redwoods of Mendocino, California for 4 days of nature medicine, fire rituals, sacred sisterhood, star gazing, intuitive flow yoga, dance magic, and heartfelt connection.
October 16th-19th 2025
Release, Renew & Re-awaken in the Redwoods
Every time I immerse myself in nature and surrender to her wisdom, I come back home to myself and who I am. Over the past several years, I’ve found myself called again and again to the coastal redwoods of Mendocino. These woods are magic and have held some deep healing for me during times of change, uncertainty, grief, as well as supporting the celebration of new beginnings. The seasons of life hold it all.
Join us for 4 days of nature medicine, ritual, play, reverence, and renewal during the magical Samhain portal of awakening.
As the Wheel of the Year turns, we are reminded not only of the cycles of change inherent in the seasons of life but also of our sacred place in the greater tapestry of the whole. Join us for four days of nature medicine, ritual, play, intuitive flow yoga, ecstatic dance, sisterhood, reverence, and renewal during the magical Samhain portal of awakening.
Samhain is one of the cross-quarter fire festivals that marks the midway point between the harvest of the Fall Equinox and Winter Solstice. This time of the year invites us to explore and trust in the wisdom held in the shadow.
Remember who you are
Reclaim your magic
Guided by the new moon in Scorpio, myths of the underworld and the Dark Goddess, the spirits of the land, and our ancestors, this liminal period is a powerful time to reconnect and re-awaken to your magic and innate gifts. Reclaim your power, howl at the night sky, dance wildly around the bonfire, and frolic through the fairy meadows.
Our specially curated journey together will include:
Thursday night: opening ceremony to ground, set intentions together, connect w/ and honor the land.
Friday & Saturday morning ritual practice: weaving together yoga asana, pranayama breathwork, ecstatic embodied dance and intuitive flow in our spacious healing sanctuary.

Open time Friday & Saturday afternoon to pause, hang out in the fairy meadow, play in the gardens, hike through the surrounding redwoods and fern gully, lounge by the fire, read and enjoy spaciousness in nature.
Afternoon workshops on Friday & Saturday to restore, renew and stoke our creativity, as well as guided self study, journaling, reflecting & open circle dialogues in our supportive community.
Closing fire ceremony on Saturday to bless, call in and release.
