Winter’s Opening | Half Day Retreat

A heart-centered gathering to move with the rhythm of new beginnings. Join us in welcoming the season through cacao, community, and somatic renewal. Guided by Emara Churchill, Sally Steele, and Claire-Louise Osmond, you’ll be held in a nurturing space designed to invite softness, presence, and deeper connection.

Listening inward, small gifts, and circles of care

“This experience gave me permission to slow down and truly listen – to my body, spirit, and inner truth. In a world that pulls me in a thousand directions, Sally’s gentle guidance and soulful questions created a space where I could return to myself.

Through the deeply restorative practice of Yoga Nidra and the presence of a compassionate community, I reconnected with parts of myself I hadn’t touched in a long time. I found strength in vulnerability, courage in stillness, and delight in simply being. I’m leaving with a deeper sense of belonging and clarity about my next step. It was a gift I didn’t know I needed – and one I’ll carry forward.”
– Shawna Penny

The Power of Community – 2025 April Newsletter

“Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much.”
— Helen Keller

How are you? Part of what I love about Nova Scotia is how people help each other—whether it’s stacking firewood ahead of the snow, dropping off a meal to someone who is sick, or meeting friends for a walk. Kindness and company is usually never too far away. It’s the kind of place where someone will stop their car to let you cross the street, even if you’re not sure you want to cross over!

As humans, we thrive in connection. We are meant to be in community—to share our stories, our struggles, and our joys. It is with this spirit that I host these circles for people to gather: a place where we can move, journal, process, and laugh.
