There’s something ancient waiting to be remembered.

On August 29, we’re welcoming Tim Yearington to guide a full-day immersive experience into the world of Bird Shamanism—an ancient, nature-based practice rooted in connection to spirit, land, and sky.

This is a day for those who feel curious about:
🌲 ancient wisdom traditions
🌲 connecting with nature in a deeper way
🌲exploring personal insight through guided journeying
🌲 learning practices you can bring into your own life

You’ll experience:
– teachings on the Great Bird / Cygnus constellation
– hands-on creation of a stone nest + sky pole
– guided drum journeys (“spirit flights”)
– storytelling and teachings from Tim’s personal path

No prior experience needed—just an open mind and willingness to explore.

📍 Hosted at Wild Grounded Retreats

This one will never be forgotten. Retreat magic began Friday at opening circle. Winds were blowing at 50 km an hour or more as we gathered to share our intentions / why we were called to this particular retreat. Tents 🏕️ surprisingly held strong and cottage accommodations sheltered and connected 💗Little did we know that the power would stay out until only minutes before our closing circle late Sunday afternoon. As a host I could never have imagined doing this with any amount of sanity, however, as an empath, the openness and flexibility of the women who attended this retreat, allowed me to calm and steady my nervous system, and just deal with every moment practicalities while still providing a beautiful experience. Thank you first to my retreat team (Rob, Denver, Lorne, Jenna, Katie, Hilary, Nicole, Micah, Heather, Toni, Liz, Daniella, Allison, Dina, Joanna, Kasia, Courtney)and sorry if I missed you - for your day by day help to make this dream possible and also answering several stressed texts and phone calls this weekend. My family for delivering gased up generators and moral support. My neighbour for hot water, a cold fridge and a on the spot therapy for the therapist 😂 Thank you Mother Earth for reminders of your strength and for sunshine and full moon energy. Thank you all providers for giving love and healing to all of our guests despite having no power. Closing circle provided so much insight into the gifts of truly “powering down”. There were so many beautiful moments of transformation and possibilities I can’t wait to hear these stories in the months to come.

The women who hold space for everyone else need spaces too.

If you are a business owner, therapist, teacher or working in education, massage therapist, OT, physiotherapist, yoga teacher, coach, nurse, wellness practitioner, or woman in a leadership role… this retreat was created with you in mind.

The Grounded Leader Retreat is an opportunity to step out of constant output and into restoration, connection, clarity, and nervous system support — before burnout catches up with you.

Surrounded by nature, nourishing meals, meaningful conversation, movement, rest, and like-minded women who understand the weight of caring for others, this retreat is about reconnecting to yourself while also building authentic community and professional connection.

Because sustainable leadership starts with a regulated, supported human behind it.

There’s something powerful about investing in a vision you deeply believe in.

Over the past while, we’ve been quietly putting love, energy, and resources into renovating our retreat space — creating more beauty, comfort, and intention for the women, families, and communities who gather here.

Seeing these three little cottages now standing together with their matching red roofs feels symbolic somehow… rooted, aligned, welcoming, and built to last. ❤️

I believe deeply in this work.
I believe people need spaces to slow down.
To reconnect with themselves.
To heal.
To breathe.
To laugh around bonfires.
To rest in nature.
To remember who they are underneath the noise of everyday life.

Investing in this space is investing in the future of that work — and in all the meaningful moments still to come here.

We cannot wait to welcome more of you into this next chapter.Thank you .flietstra.photo for capturing our renovations.

Sending you nature love this weekend. There’s something deeply nourishing about witnessing spring come alive — the sounds of frogs at night, birds in action, wildflowers opening, and the scent of fresh tree buds in the air.
Moments like these remind me why nature-based wellness feels so important, and why connection to the land is such a meaningful part of what we offer through Wild Grounded Retreats.
