Becoming Kin - Adult Retreat
Becoming Kin - adult Retreat
Facilitated by:
Claire MacDonald
Maximum 12 participants.
Accommodation: Craigcroft: Single occupancy.
Registration opens Monday, March 24th!
This weekend retreat offers an immersion in nature and community to deepen our relation with the land and each other. We will explore themes of reciprocity and renewal with the living world.
Why…
Practices that foster connection with the land and its non-human inhabitants in the plant and animal world will DEEPEN OUR EXPERIENCE OF PLACE.
There will be an introduction to the wheel of the year, an ancient Celtic tradition of marking and celebrating the turning of the seasons. This is a tool for tracking ourselves in relationship to the cycles and rhythms of nature. This will be a special weekend of kinship for all, whether you're new or returning to Fircom.
