Following Aliveness: Fall

As we navigate the busyness of our lives and the complexities of our world, many of us can sense a deep and growing need to reconnect with the natural world. This innate awareness calls us to align our bodies and beings with the earth’s energy and rhythms, drawing upon the profound support they offer. By embracing the wisdom and spiritual insights that each season illuminates, we can find greater harmony within ourselves and more balance in our lives.

The Following Aliveness retreat series invites you to experience the wisdom of the earth’s seasons, thoughtfully woven into all aspects of retreat practice.  Through meditation, inquiry, journeying, expressive arts, and time in nature, we’ll explore the transformational energies and themes of Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall, while deepening our connection to ourselves, others, and the natural world.

The retreats are designed both as stand-alone experiences, offering you the opportunity to immerse yourself in a seasonal theme, and as a powerful quartet, with each retreat experience building upon the one prior, as you’re guided through the full creative cycle throughout the year. Join us for one, several, or all four.

FOLLOWING ALIVENESS: FALL

Our fall themes – REWILD and RELEASE – guide us into a season of reflection and insight.

As the leaves turn and the earth prepares for rest, we’ll practice noticing, honoring, and gently letting go of what no longer serves us. By releasing old stories and patterns, we’ll create space to reclaim and embody our authentic selves with greater ease. Our fall practices will invite us to let go with clarity and compassion and to return to ourselves with curiosity and kindness, while also gaining tools to embrace life’s regenerative cycles and sustain these practices long after the retreat ends.

We welcome practitioners 18 years and older with some meditation experience.  Daylong or multi-day retreat experience is required.
