BIG NEWS!
Veronica Ciandre is coming all the way from Tulum, Mexico for yet another day retreat. Her and Nadia Carriere have teamed up again for something very special. This time we will be offering 2 dates - one Laurentian Lodge in Elliot Lake and another in Kagawong, Manitoulin Island. Two separate events - two dates - same content.
Are you ready to change your internal storylines, take a time out and unplug from everything to re-nourish your mind and body?
This year we will be offering somatic and sound bowl meditation as well as Veronica’s Word Medicine Mala & Midlife workshop. This is a contemplative workshop devoted to helping women recognize the narratives shaping their experience of midlife and consciously choose new ones.
Through a guided Word Medicine process, participants uncover an inherited storyline, along with the limiting patterns, and unconscious expectations that come with it, then transform it into a series of identity-aligned narratives that support vitality, possibility, self-trust, and renewal.
Each participant creates a simple Word Medicine Mala and learns how to use it as a tool for repetition, embodiment, and remembrance. More than a meditation practice, it becomes a tangible anchor for the new narratives they are choosing to live and a companion to the repeatable process they can return to whenever they are ready to transform another limiting narrative.
You’ll leave not only with tools, but with greater clarity, a renewed sense of agency, increased confidence in who they are becoming, and a heightened ability to recognize limiting narratives, choose new ones, and reinforce them through conscious repetition.
Our day retreats include a healthy lunch set in gorgeous forested locations and a true unplug and mental reset.
Registration is up on Momence and space is limited!
