Your Ritual Retreat at Dreamland
How would you life be different if there was a place for you; a sanctuary where you are held and guided as you unwind, slow down and re-member the beauty of your true Nature?
A Ritual Retreat is a special opportunity to step away from the busyness of your daily routine to tend to your soul, your spirit path, and the sacred Earth. We offer a precious opportunity to unplug, unwind and re-member your true nature and spirit.
During a ritual retreat, you are invited to slow down to the speed of Nature so you can rest, renew and gain clarity and perspective on the call of your soul in these wild changing times.
A Ritual Retreat Will Support:
An individual (or couple) who is ready to make an energetic shift.
A desire to unplug and remember your true nature.
A longing to be held in a sacred container to hear the call of your soul.
A wish to slow down to the speed of Nature, to rest and restore.
Being with grief, processing a loss or letting go of people and experiences.
Contemplating or marking a life passage.
Implementing new life practices and fully stepping into a new level of being.
Tending places that feel stuck, blocked, disconnected, confused or alone.
