Details

You can begin relaxing and unplugging the moment you arrive. Your hostess, Jenn, combines her 16 years of experience in coaching and healing into each of her carefully curated retreats. You are in good hands. Throughout the weekend you will delve into who you truly are without all the responsibilities and conditions life has placed on you. You will have time during meditation and journaling to connect with that truth within you. Connecting and feeling supported with other like-minded women is just as important at this retreat, and you will find time for these connections through games, activities, or in the hot tub. Explore your creative side in a meditative rock painting session, or a Japanese Healing Project. Find deep relaxation during the several sound bath meditations you will experience throughout the weekend. Take home tools to put into your daily life that remind you to listen to your inner self and believe in who you are. Wish upon a star while you sit by the fire. Allow the waves to lull you to sleep.

Location

Port Stanley, Canada

Port Stanley, Ontario, is a charming lakeside village located on the northern shore of Lake Erie. Known for its scenic beauty and small-town charm, Port Stanley attracts visitors with its expansive sandy beach, one of the finest in the region, which is perfect for swimming and sunbathing during the warmer months. The village boasts a vibrant arts community, with galleries, theaters, and unique shops that reflect its maritime heritage.

Your home for the weekend is a century old cottage on the shores of Lake Erie, in historic Port Stanley, Ontario. This 7 bedroom 5 bathroom cottage offers several different lounge spaces, decks and a hot tub for soaking. Explore the grounds from fresh flowers popping up from their wintery sleep, to gorgeous lake views. After a long day of healing and learning allow the sounds of the waves to lull you to sleep. If only the walls could speak in this home, it was built in the era of the infamous Stork Club, and many after parties were hosting right here.

Testimonials

info

I attended Jenn Prothero’s Wellness Weekend Sept 27-29. The theme being “ Remembering Yourself.”. It was such a great experience to find yourself through mediation, sound baths, group discussions and so much more. This group of ladies ages ranged from 20’s to 70’s yet we all connected, and shared our lives in a safe, compassionate, no judgement environment. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it to all women.

Lynn Claire, Canada

Jenn is an authentic, amazing, beautiful soul. She holds space to go deep and be. She provides teachings, mediation and sound healing to gain strength, clarity and return to peace. I love Jenn.

Kelly Linstead, Canada

Jenn really listens and listens deeply, she provided guidance and support that really helped my healing from childhood trauma. She provided me with helpful tools that I can use going forward in my healing journey and we got to the root of many of my issues. She showed me where to be gentler with myself and also helped me figure out what was truly mine. What needed to be released and provided space, support and activities that helped reach release. I am forever grateful to Jenn for all her support and work. I can now move forward and truly live my life. I highly recommend Jenn has a healer and guide - the sound baths and reiki were a wonderful experience and I will come back for more retreats in the future.
