At High North Retreats, we create sacred space for transcendent journeys where deep personal development and radical transformation can take place. These gatherings offer opportunities for expanded consciousness and profound connection, providing a compassionate and safe container for exploring new realms and realigning with Truth.\u00a0 We are committed to artfully stewarding transformative experiences into modern culture, enriching the paradigm of personal growth. Using our integrative approach to radical wellness, we weave together ancient wisdom, sacred rituals, grounding practices, and curate a potent container where actual change is seeded and can take root. The High North Experience Immerse yourself in a comprehensive experience that encompasses pre-retreat preparation, a 3-day retreat, and post-retreat integration. Crafted for those ready to deepen their connection with life, Self, others, nature, and the universe. Our program supports you in uncovering your authentic essence.\u00a0 Over three days, embark on a journey of self-exploration and expansion with us, receiving personal and professional guidance and care. Together we engage in sacred ceremonies, sharing circles, forays into nature, and enjoy nourishing food.\u00a0 \u201cThe mind, unfettered by the constraints of the ego, dances with the cosmos in ecstatic union\u201d J. R. Damon Our Approach Our retreats unite wisdom from master teachers of the plant and spirit world, providing a setting for fundamental shifts. Within this nurturing environment, these sacred gifts may reveal pathways, inspiring a rediscovery of who you really are and a renewed relationship with the world around you. Dance and movement are an exciting part of embodying the retreat experience. Through ecstatic dance, we connect with our bodies, ground ourselves, and align mind, body, and soul &#8211; allowing the experiences to land. We also gather for cacao ceremony, where cacao serves as a gentle, heart-opening ally, facilitating love and expansion. Preparation and integration sessions before and after are essential parts of our offering and are included as part of the retreat. These are important to give each participant the tools they need to navigate a transformative experience as well as integrate any wisdom or insights gained (from it) into real life. Our Team &#038; Space Our team holds certifications as transformational integration coaches and have over two decades of experience working in this field.\u00a0We operate from a place of deep compassion and reverence for life and the wisdom of the master teachers. Our space is supportive and intentional, rooted in a profound understanding of this path and the bravery it requires, drawn from our own firsthand experiences and life journeys. Our retreat space is nestled in the heart of nature, surrounded by the energy and wisdom of wild forests. The natural setting provides a nourishing environment for your journey, with clean, fresh air and the soothing sounds and silence of the wilderness. The meals offered are soulfully crafted and prepared with love and intention. They are designed to support and enhance your experience, providing nourishment that aligns with the nature of our retreats. We embrace a plant-based wholefood philosophy, offering nutritious and delectable meals sourced from local organic farmers and foraged ingredients.
