I love a good adventure into the wilderness that pushes our physical edges and has us discovering new beauty.

And, what I've learned is that going into the wildnerness can quickly turn into a sacred adventure.

The voyage can open us up into deeper quest of being in relationship with the living beings that surround us and opens us to the wisdom that is accessed beyond the rational mind.

These sacred encounters offer invitations for deeper exploration and insight into your life.

I am so looking forward to witness each women's transformation as we embark on a sacred adventure next week through the Women on Water Paddle Retreat!

Weeks before we gather, I begin holding space for our circle through my own rituals. I ready my own heart and mind by pulling cards, writing, moving and spending time in the water so I can show up fully open and present.

As Sarah and I review the Participant Care Profiles, we take time to sense into the unique needs and energy of the group and shape our itinerary around this.

It is just over a week before a group of us embark on the water to listen to the wisdom of nature.

And, the journey has already started.

And the participants are also readying their hearts. They each have been sent reflection questions to start opening up and tuning in as they prepare for the journey

It wasn't easy making the choice to pack up my office and home in the city and move up north. It felt like i had to let go of a lot of conveniences.
Yet, now I can say I'm living my best mermaid life! A simple life that makes me feel alive and connected. Even if conveniences are a little further away.

We were moved by the unique beauty of Nelly Lake.
Sarah Earley and I embarked on the day trek with anticipation!

We instantly both felt at home on the northern Ontario wilderness with the rugged rocky landscape and windswept pines.

The first part of the journey we relaxed and took in the beauty as Widgawa Lodge staff drove us on boat.

The forest welcomed us as we then embarked on foot towards Grace Lake. We noticed big old pines and valleys holding pathways for water flow. We breathed in the calm as we trekked along to the canoe waiting for us on the shores.

As we entered onto the waters of Grace Lake, the loons welcomed us with their mournful, serene call.

Stroke by stroke we paddled through Grace Lake passing by granite islands and sheer cliffs in the distance.

We sang, on repeat, "water heal my body. Water heal my soul. When I go on down to the water, by the water i feel whole,"

It became our chant. Our rhythm.

Back, on land, a little weary, we kept going onward to the last hike of the trek to Nelly.

We paused and yelled in the wilderness, hearing our echoes back.

What are we getting back on this voyage? What is crossing our path? We stayed open and curious as we ventured the next hike.

And then, when it all started to feel too long, we saw it: the shores of Nelly!

NEELLYYY we yelled in relief and excitement!!

And from there we hopped on a clear canoe and was immersed within a turquoise blue that I thought could only be from a filter. But, no, this Lake was really that turquoise.
Wonder filled our beings as we swam and explored the waters. Feeling welcomed and celebrated after a long voyage.

Seeing clearly through the turquoise waters had as curious what we see clearly in our own lives after such a trek.

Feeling grateful, we returned back and journeyed back through the trails and paddles, letting the experience sink in deeper.

A voyage in the wilderness changes us.

Do you yearn for this kind of journey, that is not only an adventure in the wilderness, but an opportunity to reflect on your life?

We are trekking again to Nelly Lake and this time you are invited!

As late August approaches, it is easy to feel like summer is slipping past without having taken a moment to slow down.  Before the busy routine of the fall takes over, there is still time to offer yourself a pause within the wilderness.  

Sarah Earley and I are hosting our Women on Water Reflective Paddle Retreat (August 28-30) and we have a few remaining spots left.  

We are getting excited to welcome an intimate group of women to the forest and waters on the edge of Killarney Park.  The lodge owners are even creating a special campsite just for our group across the river in an ancient forest. 

It’s going to be a sacred space to step away from daily life, slow down, and reconnect with nature and yourself through reflection, ritual, and paddling.

Together, we will embark on a sacred adventure that includes:

2 nights camping under ancient pines 

Paddle Quest to Nelly Lake

Somatic Practice and Ritual

Circle Sharing

3 Prepared Meals

If your heart or body is craving this kind of intentional space with like-minded women, before the summer ends, we would love to welcome you into the circle:

When: August 28–30, 2026

Where: Widgawa Lodge, Just 10 minutes from Esponola, Ont. (edge of Killarney wilderness)

How to Join:  visit www.angelaherzog.com/womenonwater or find link in bio.

Comment WATER for link to be sent directly to you.

If you are considering joining but have questions or worries holding you back, simply DM as we’d love to connect and chat through them with you!  

We look forward to this sacred adventure and what the wilderness has in store for each of us.

Mesmerizing isn't it? The ripples of the water and the sparkles of sunlight.
I hope I'm not the only one who could watch this over and over again and get lost in the magic of water.

I can spend hours staring into water watching the shifting rhythms and waves in response to the wind. Something deep in me is soothed and released.
A permission to let go and flow.

What is your favourite thing about watching water?

Haven't had enough time with water this summer?

Women on Water is a reflective paddle retreat where we will open to the soothing wisdom of water as we paddle, share and connect in the Killarney wilderness.

Women on Water is a reflective paddle weekend where we embark on a sacred adventure to give space to listen to the stirrings of our soul.

We will camp in the ancient forest of Widgawa Lodge in the edge of Killarney Park. We will then journey to Nelley Lake by canoe for a day of paddling and reflecting.

The weekend will be intentionally guided by Angela Herzog, Psychotherapist and Rites of Passage Guide, and Sarah Early, Outdoor Educator.

Together, we will create a space that supports not only an adventure in the wilderness, but time to slow down and make the space to listen to your soul's whispers.

In a time where life is moving so fast, it is easy to go through the motions and not even know what you really desire in your life. This weekend will give you journal prompts, rituals, paddle quest and circle sharing to give space to finally listen to yourself again.

We are capping the group at 8 women and just have a few spots left!

August 28-30
Just off Manitoulin Island at Widgawa Lodge
$475
Most meals included.

July has flown by! I am grateful I had a bit of time off to spend time at cottage with the fam! And, extra grateful that I live on Manitoulin and can swim as much as my heart desires! But, that means I'm not online as much!
How is your summer going?
