Details
We will slow down and create space for reflections and growth in the quiet. While immersed in nature with like-minded beings, this retreat is an invitation to take stock, release and listen with more clarity as spring arrives to the West Coast of BC. Step away from the rush of everyday life and gift yourself the space to slow down, reflect on this quiet meditation retreat. Over 3 days and 2 nights, we will explore many types of Meditation, Mindfulness, and Breathing practices to give the entire system a gentle reset. Guided by Carolyn, you’ll be immersed into an easeful sense of quiet with her most cherished Mindfulness practices—all thoughtfully woven together. The entire experience will fill you with all the grounding and solitude (in a supportive group environment) you seek. Held in the heart of nature and surrounded by a community of kindred spirits, this retreat offers the opportunity to pause, look within, release what no longer serves, and listen more deeply to your own inner wisdom.

Accommodation Description Whichever accommodation you choose, the moment you step into your room, you know you’ve entered a safe place to unwind and relax. Each space is imbued with its namesake stone’s positive vibrational properties and colour accents for support, grounding and attunement to the natural world. The modern, Scandinavian-inspired deluxe cottages were designed with simplistic coziness in mind. Comfy beds, soft linens, fluffy pillows and a reading window seat offer perfect places to snuggle up to a loved one or with a good book and a warm mug of tea. Wake up and take a luxurious morning shower in the gorgeous bathroom, or take it outside in the steamy outdoor shower adjoining the bathroom. A covered porch lined with warm cedar perches you with a perfect view of the property’s centrepiece, our magnificent maple and alder grove trees.

We meet in Onyx Lodge and gather around a long harvest table to enjoy each meal. The vegetarian cuisine is prepared with love and intention and is made with locally-grown, organic ingredients—we source from Bowen Island or BC’s west coast as often as possible. Sip your choice of coffee or tea in the mornings and tea throughout the day, and break bread with those around you. Vegan and gluten-free options are available upon request.
