Embers & Tides An Elemental Retreat - October

Retreat Experience & Practical Details

There is something about autumn that calls us back to ourselves.

This October, we gather near the shoreline - held by water, warmed by fire, grounded by earth, carried by air.

Think:

• Quiet Beaches

• Crisp air and open land

• Heated indoor pool + jacuzzi

• Sacred practices woven through Earth, Air, Fire, and Water

We will breathe life back into the belly.

We will ground into the earther beneath our feet.

We will soften in water.

We will kindle inner flame.

Through intentional ritual, guided practices, and healing modalities, this weekend is designed to nourish and replenish the mind, body, and spirit - without overwhelm, without performance, without pressure.

Just presence.

Just depth.

Just return.

The weekend will follow a gentle rhythm of shared meals, grounding practices, guided experiences, and personal time. Nothing is forced, and you are welcome to move through the weekend in the way that feels most supportive for you.

Your retreat experience includes:

• Three nights lodging

• Nourishing shared meals throughout the weekend

• Elemental rituals and guided practices

• Yoga, sound, and healing experiences

• Creative and grounding activities

• Access to the heated indoor pool and jacuzzi

• Spacious free time for rest, reflection, beach walks, or quiet integration

If this gathering is calling to you, we would be honored to welcome you into this shared circle of rest, reflection, and reconnection with the elements.

Only 16 spaces available.

Accommodation Details

While the heart of this gathering is rooted in presence, connection, and the wisdom of the elements, we’ve also gathered a few practical details below to help you feel comfortable and prepared for the weekend.

This retreat takes place in a beautiful private home near the Lake Michigan shoreline, offering a welcoming space for rest, connection, and shared experience. This home is a 6,100 sq ft private compound with 9 bedrooms and 5 full bathrooms, spread between the Main House and a connected Guest Wing. The property sits on 5 fenced acres with complete privacy and includes a heated indoor pool, hot tub, expansive gathering spaces, and a commercial-style kitchen designed specifically for large groups.

Because we are gathering in a private home rather than a hotel, many of the living spaces — including bathrooms — are shared. Throughout the weekend we simply hold the space with mindfulness and care for one another so the home remains comfortable and supportive for all who are here.

Each guest will be provided with bath towels for the weekend. In honor of the earth element that guides this retreat, we gently invite guests to reuse their towel when it feels comfortable as part of caring for the home and the natural resources that sustain us.

If you plan to enjoy the pool or hot tub, we kindly ask that you bring a separate pool towel from home.

Closer to the retreat, registered participants will receive additional details including suggested packing items, dietary requests, and optional carpool coordination.
