Rest also lives in how you work. Explore Digitally Rested.
There is a kind of tiredness that sleep does not touch. A heaviness that accumulates when we can't slow down.
This retreat is an invitation to stop moving long enough to feel what rest actually is.
Set in a quiet home near the water in Bowser, BC, Settling Into Rest is a full Saturday of guided rest, gentle movement, nourishing food, and unhurried time. For those who wish to make it a full weekend retreat, Friday and Saturday nights are available, so you can arrive slowly and leave with even more room to breathe.
This is not a productivity retreat. There is nothing to achieve here.
Only space to remember what it feels like to really rest.
