Radical Rest Retreat (A Psilocybin Retreat)
2024-10-17 - 2024-10-20
“What would it be like to live in a well-rested world? Far too many of us have claimed productivity as the cornerstone of success. Brainwashed by capitalism, we subject our bodies and minds to work at an unrealistic, damaging, and machine level pace –– feeding into the same engine that enslaved millions into brutal labor for its own relentless benefit”
~ Tricia Hersey

In the fast-paced world we live in which focuses so heavily on doing, accomplishing and striving it is so rare that we take the time to slow down, to rest and simply be. These fast and action orientated ways are templated into our nervous system and psyches; many people when given the time to slow down don’t know what to do with themselves, fear boredom or just simply don’t know how to shift gears. We are living in a society that glorifies this busyness and supports “grind culture”.

In our time together, we will explore rest in many ways: as a practice, as a state of being, as way to actually accomplish more and as a way to say no to the cultural normality of working ourselves to the point of depletion. Our goal is to help template in a new way of being, to deeply experience and embody the power of relaxation, restoration and the flow of vital energy in the body.

The weekend will include:

Gentle yoga
Yogic sleep
Breathwork
Heart-coherence practices
Nervous system regulation
Ceremony
Ritual and MORE!

Beloved Woman,
You were not always considered, respected, listened to at a level that honoured you. You were not always considered for leadership or positions of influence and respect. You were not always held in the highest regard in society, and in your interpersonal relationships. Historically, we have lived in a world in which the masculine were granted advantages that helped to propel them to positions of influence, fulfillment, achievement, admiration, basic societal rights.
At times, even other women have relegated you to roles that have not necessarily been commensurate with your dreams, your capacities, and your Path.
BOOK NOW
The time has come on our Beloved planet for the Feminine to flourish.
You are one who is selected by the Divine Feminine to Pioneer this unfolding.
….so let us Celebrate and Honour the Feminine within us.
Let us become aware of the of the Feminine, the capacity of Woman, the Glory of the Feminine Divine
Let us Hear the Feminine Divine
Let us open our hearts and our awareness to who we are as women, and our relationship to the Feminine,

Let us be a force of love that
celebrates The Feminine.
