Wild Woman Rising Summer Retreat

July 21-23, 2023 in Courtenay, BC

Have you ever felt the desire to embrace your wild woman self but not sure how to do that? Or where to even start?

Do you ever feel like you’re dimming your light or taming your wild in order to be accepted by the patriarchal society that we live in?

Do you ever feel like you have forgotten who you truly are beneath your cultural programming?

Have you lost yourself in your mothering role? Or one of the many other roles you play?

Have you desired a deeper connection with like hearted women? A longing for sisterhood?

Do you feel like you could use a little guidance and inspiration in reclaiming, or reconnecting with, your truest self?

Have you ever dreamed about getting away from every day life for 3 days and immersing yourself in a soul nourishing weekend retreat?

Wild Woman Rising is a summer embodiment retreat for women, to come together and honour both giving and receiving, rest and play, tap into their womb space and let the creative juices flow.

During our time together we will say THANK YOU to our bodies in the most nourishing of ways through embodiment workshops, circles, and self-healing practices, and invite in greater balance and harmony that we can bring home to deepen our relations with the ones we love and care for.

Think of it like a summer camp for Goddesses that will leave you feeling deeply cared for and rejuvenated!

When women arrive at a retreat, they arrive as strangers, and when they leave, they are hugging their soul sisters. We meet our tribe at a retreat like this.

Summer is the time of the Goddess. It is the season of the mother archetype who comes to the surface more fully, blooming with creativity and sensuality. It is a time of dancing around fires and enjoying life in full bloom. Imagine an entire weekend surrounded by like-hearted women, with space to connect to yourself more deeply, to share your dreams and visions with others in a safe and supportive way, to be seen and witnessed in your truest, juiciest, most sensual self. A space in which you can remember and be reminded of who you truly are.

This magical weekend takes place this summer on July 21-23. Wild Woman Rising will be held at a beautiful home and property in rural Courtenay. This is the perfect place to gather in sisterhood to celebrate the Divine Feminine in ourselves and each other. The property is a small acreage with lots of space to gather, dance and play. You will have the choice of staying in one of the private rooms in the home, in a shared space in the home, or outdoors in your tent under the stars. More details below.

Some of the offerings during the weekend will include:

Feminine embodiment practices
Sacred sexuality workshops
Breath and medicine song
Womb wisdom
Hypnotherapy (Similar to guided visualization - deeply relaxing!)
Nude Empowerment (optional!)
Sacred Circles and Sisterhood

Some of the activities and ceremonies may push your comfort zone. That’s great! You will be in good company and growth happens when we allow ourselves to step outside that zone. That’s where we meet our wild woman!

We will share ceremonial space as we gather in circle both indoors and outdoors, and in your free time you are welcome to take a walk to the ocean, relax with a good book, have a nap or connect with other women under the shade tents or under the big trees.

Our meals will be nourishing for the body and spirit, and compliment the season of Summer with lots of fresh produce. We will celebrate our ancestral ways of community based dining and preparing food together.

Your guides for the weekend will be myself, Jacqueline, and my dear sister Akaiy’ha. She is a Sacred Feminine Embodiment Guide and founder of Medicine Women Rising. You can find more about her at her website:

What people are saying

" I have been trying to find the words to express my gratitude for what this retreat awakened for me, the words that best describe it is “life changing”. I have spent these past few weeks in awe of what keeps coming up, and what I have been attracting into my life, and what is being let go. The clarity of my calling, which isn’t completely clear, but coming into view. All I know is I’m not afraid to leap, to allow The Great Mother to guide me, and the universe catch me. I am so thankful for the sisterhood I have found in all of you, honestly not once did I feel out of place or awkward. I felt at home. I felt held. I felt loved. I have been able to integrate all of this. And it continues to give me strength. "

So much freedom in that naked dancing. It's truly liberating! I couldn't believe I actually did it! And that it was the most empowering, Magick thing I've maybe ever done! I often ask my clients to reflect on a time when they felt most free, authentic, aligned with their souls purpose, dharma... this was definitely a moment for me ❤️❤️❤️❤️ yay for feeling safe in my own skin! Not something I've experienced a lot of in my life!

Kim

I defs wanna have the whole naked experience again though, that level of safety and freedom is fucking epic🙌🏼 For me the feeling sexier part didn’t come from being naked…it came from finding my womb space again and opening up that energy. N then having the realization after that dancing is when I have felt the most sexy in my life and even when I wasn’t dancing I still carried that energy w me in my days. It had zero to do w my looks/body ever! Lol. It was the inside feelings…the music in my soul…the movement in my body💖 Yessuh🙌🏼

Connecting deeper to my womb has been so healing. The pain on my side is nearly there anymore. I feel more open than ever to my divine feminine and expressing my truest sexual nature. All the while feeling so incredibly held and safe in sisterhood.

What I take forward is "new beginnings." We have opened up a portal to birth. I feel this deep sense of inner knowing that there is so much more to come. I can't wait to witness what we all bring fourth and co-create together. Listen. The wise & wild women are calling. Awo, awo, Awoooooooo!!!

" The Naked Circle was so empowering for me. I have felt restrained and restricted and restless for so so many years, and that night of the circle, for the first time in forever I felt free, I felt like a Goddess, I felt seen and accepted and appreciated and loved and held. I wasn’t afraid I cannot wait to do it again. It awoke the parts of me I only ever fantasized about, I can’t wait to expand on this experience. "
