The Watering Hole Retreat: Replenish and reconnect together

Join us for a 3-day, 2-night retreat designed to rekindle your spirit and reconnect with yourself and your community. This is a lakeside sleepover inspired by the metaphor of the watering hole—a place where diverse beings gather to rest, play, and replenish. 

Our goal is to intertwine group breathwork and somatic embodiment practices with camp playtime. Think swimming, kayaking, arts and crafts, song circles, yoga and dance parties.

This is an opportunity to return to the simplicity of breath, movement, food, friendship, nature, and space to be yourself. 

We know health and connection isn’t one-size-fits-all, and this retreat is about celebrating where you’re at and choosing what you need. Health is about choices and options, and here, you’ll have the freedom to explore what nourishes you best.

There will be a good mix of facilitated community practices with the entire group and time to choose what activities call to you (including opting out to chill if that’s what feels right). Both Meeka and Katie will also offer individual Somatic Experiencing and breathwork sessions to those interested in signing up.

Come to the watering hole. Replenish yourself. And know you can always return.

What to Expect:

Facilitated Activities: Each day enjoy a mix of somatic exercises, playful outdoor activities, and contemplative creative projects. These are curated for you, so there’s no need to plan—just show up and be. Ample free-time is included so you don’t feel too programmed.
Community Connection: Engage with others in a supportive, low-pressure environment. Share stories, insights, or simply your presence around the “watering hole.”
Personal Exploration: Tune into your unique needs and rhythms. This is a space to honor where you are in your cycle of energy, emotion, and growth.

This summer solstice, let’s blow on our collective embers, rekindle our aliveness, and embrace the regenerative power of community and self connection.

Who is this for?
This retreat is for anyone ready to rest, play, and reconnect. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just curious about what balance looks like for you, you’ll leave feeling renewed and inspired. Must be 21+ to participate.
