About the event
Earthaven Ecovillage
The Re-membering Retreat is an intimate four-day journey in a supportive community container, exploring what it means to Belong: to Belong to Oneself, to Each Other, to a Lineage, to a Place, to this Life. This retreat is designed to enliven your sense of connection and provide you with time to access nature’s candid mirror that informs the truth of how you want to live.
Most of us think of belonging as a mythical place, that if we keep diligently searching for, we might eventually find. But what if belonging isn’t a place at all, but a skill: a set of competencies that we, in modern life, have lost or forgotten? And that when we coax, weave, and tend to the roots of our separation, we restore our membership in belonging.
Collaboratively, we will co-create the retreat space in such a way that it will foster restoration for our belonging in the world and in our own seat of well-being. When we reconnect to the parts inside of us that long to belong, we ignite more authenticity, meaning, and pleasure in all our external connections.
This retreat is held in a sacred container, with meals provided each day, and the space to re-member your whole self, and what brought you into this world, and ultimately into this community-based experience.
With intention, and courage of course, we will practice at being in relationship with what we long for most through ritual, play, creative expression, time in nature, hand-crafting, song, fire, releasing grief, laughter and reflection.
Earthaven Ecovillage in the woodlands of the ancient Appalachian mountains with streams, vital forests, and naturally built infrastructure will serve as our container, mentor, and classroom for this work to unfold within.
Cultivating a strong sense of belonging is essential to our soul’s expression… regardless of where we call home.
This program is for adults and mature teens.
