There is a place within you that longs to soften…to exhale…and to simply be.  This 4-day women's retreat is an invitation into that place.

​

Beginning with a nourishing dinner on Thursday evening and closing after lunch on Sunday, the Dream Temple retreat is a sacred pause from the pace of everyday life.  It's a return to stillness, to body, to breath, and to the quiet wisdom that emerges when nothing is being asked of you.

​

Each morning, we gather to open the day in dream space.  

​

You will arrive carrying an intention, a question, a longing, or something you want more insight on. And each night, while you sleep, your dreaming mind will begin to work on your behalf.  And together, in the Dream Temple we amplify the cosmic intelligence.

​

The most potent dreams occur in the liminal space between sleeping and waking. 

Humanity is collectively in this time.  Dream Time will guide us to new ways of being.

​

Dreams are not random noise. They are the soul's native language.  They are symbolic, layered, alive with intelligence that bypasses the thinking mind. In our morning dream circles, we will tend these nightly transmissions together. You will learn to receive the images, feelings, and figures that visited you in the night and allow them to energetically inform you.  And we dream for each other!  It becomes a soul expanding experience.  You will leave with new insights and the energy integrated into your body.

​

Dream work is a sacred practice. Day by day, the dreams build on one another, responding to your intention, mirroring the collective field of the group, and shifting energy in ways that are often subtle and always profound. Women routinely find that their dreams during retreat become the most vivid, most truthful guidance they have ever received.  And we need this kind of guidance.  Now.  More than ever.

​

After each daily dream circle, time opens.  The daily schedule is open for true retreat. 

​

The rhythm of the retreat is intentionally unstructured, allowing you to follow your own inner guidance.  The spaciousness is also a form of dreaming. Because the same intelligence that speaks to you in sleep is present in signs and synchronicities that come from the pull toward the mountain trail, the urge to write, the desire to rest or nap, the cards you pull, the art journaling that explodes on the page.  Following threads from the morning's dream circle deeper into your own knowing. You may curl up with a novel on the swinging porch bed, nap, soak in the hot tub, sweat in the infrared sauna, receive a massage, or chat with a new friend. 

​

There will be optional gentle kundalini yoga and optional ecstatic dance (both facilitated by Tammy) to keep the energy moving if you feel called.  Both practices that, like dream work, access wisdom held below the surface of ordinary thought.

​

There is nowhere to be. Nothing to do. No expectation beyond your own replenishment.

​

This is temple time, where your body becomes sanctuary, where rest is honored as sacred. 

​

As Temple Time unfolds and dreams arrive, something subtle yet profound begins to happen: your nervous system relaxes and your inner voice becomes clearer.  The dreams deepen as the days pass. By Sunday morning, you'll feel like you've been reorganized from the inside/out.

​

​You'll leave with dream images that carry you into the future and keep revealing layer by layer.  Dreams are potent medicine.

​

Your dreams have been waiting for you to have time to listen.
