We invite you to slow down this holiday season, come on retreat, and check back in with yourself. The Winter season offers a special time for spiritual development; the short days and long nights bring a cocoon of stillness, both inner and outer. As the year comes to a close, embark on a journey of self-discovery and rejuvenation, offering you the perfect opportunity to slow down and reconnect with your inner self in this woodland sanctuary.
Each day will offer a simple contemplative activity. There will be at least one massage therapist or energy practitioner on site each day to offer sessions. Embrace the simplicity of this season – read, rest, and watch any snow falling. Recharge your spirit in the soothing sauna and connect with a community of like-minded individuals as you share meals and engage in daily meditation. Together, we will rest, reset, and prepare our minds and bodies for the journey of the New Year.
As the year draws to a close, we’ll come together for end-of-year contemplation, a time to reflect on your journey and set intentions for the year ahead. On New Year’s day we will have our annual ritual, a powerful and uplifting ceremony that marks the transition into the new year with grace and purpose.
Join us in celebrating life, embracing winter’s beauty, and welcoming the dawn of a new chapter at the Christine Center’s Winter in the Woods New Year’s Retreat.
