So we had an absolutely wonderful retreat last weekend on Conesus Lake. 16 incredible women gathered together for a weekend of relaxation, sisterhood and the sharing of sacred wisdom/healing medicine. For Ourselves. For Mother Earth. We worked together as a tribe, cooking, cleaning, creating, healing, praying, singing and meditation. Oh and lots of LAUGHING and TEARS. It was so much more than I could have ever hoped for. The spirit present within our home was magical. I was impressed by the strength, courage and honesty of these bright women. I was thrilled by the Great Spirit and animal totems who worked with us all. I loved the fire, drumming and the sacred chocolate. I am certain all souls experienced a far deeper healing than they ever could have hoped for. I watched harmony grow as unconditional love, light, and laughter seeped into dark stressed filled spaces causing release to bring balance to bodies, minds and spirits. We made medicine bags, painted our retreat banner, we wrote in journals, received individual shamanic healing on the table, enjoyed starlit relaxing hot tubbing. We took time-outs to share our hearts and listen as others shared theirs.
Caretakers...became the receiver's. By the time sacred circle ended on Sunday, I knew we did some mighty powerful work together. Our tribe emerged back into the world with brighter energies to continue serving others. Spirit tells me that our tribe will get bigger each year now. We sold out this one. Had to turn a few away. So next year we will have one in June and the other in September. We will grow, spread healing and positive medicine for the feminine Spirit through-out the world! Together We Are One.
