    See details

    Designed for women navigating any phase of hormonal change, this immersive exercise retreat explores how shifting estrogen levels influence movement, training, recovery, and aging. Led by biomechanist and bestselling author Katy Bowman, the program focuses on partnering with a changing body rather than trying to fix it, building a sustainable practice that supports strength, resilience, and long-term well-being. Participants can expect three days of expert guidance, nourishing meals, and meaningful connection, with logistics handled so it is easy to fully engage. Sessions prioritize a gentle yet effective approach, blending guided exercises with reflection and real-time feedback to clarify range of motion, enhance mobility, and rebuild confidence in what the body can do. Key outcomes include understanding how hormonal transitions affect strength and joints, developing bone-supportive strength without burnout, restoring mobility while protecting joint health, and improving balance and coordination to lower fall risk and cultivate steady confidence. The retreat also weaves in nervous system support to ease stress, encourage better sleep, and bolster emotional health, along with practical ways to adapt everyday movements and workouts to current needs. Expect biomechanics-informed movement tailored to aging muscles, joints, and bones, collaborative planning to design a personalized movement routine that replenishes energy and serves long-term goals, supportive group dialogue that normalizes shared experiences, self-inquiry journaling to anchor insights, and mindful nature walks that refresh alignment. Whether approaching menopause, moving through it, or long past it, attendees leave with tools they can use daily to make movement more aligned, more resilient, and more their own.

    Alchemical Awakening Mystery School: Truth Unveiled with Eluña Noelle

    Art of Living Retreat Center, 639 Whispering Hills Rd, Boone · verified Sep 27
    See details

    This five-day immersive mystery school with psycho-spiritual teacher and Akashic channeler Eluña Noelle focuses on transforming pain into personal power and clarity. Through a weave of esoteric teaching, ancient story, intuitive skill-building, and grounded, embodied practice, participants are guided to release inherited wounds, shed limiting beliefs, and clear stagnant energy so the most authentic self can emerge. Expect an experiential journey that blends movement, meditation, ritual, and shared presence. You will take part in heart-centered group work, explore your energetic anatomy, and enter ceremonies intended to awaken inner wisdom. With steady guidance from Eluña, you will refine psychic perception, experience group activation, and learn practical ways to turn shadow into light. The emphasis is not just on learning information, it is on transformation through embodiment. Along the way, breath-centered journeys help invigorate your energy, practices strengthen self-trust and sovereignty, and guided work supports the release of emotional residue and outdated narratives. Meditation invites wider awareness and remembrance, while a ceremonial container fosters genuine connection. Participants leave with alchemical principles and practices that can be continued at home. To support your experience, please bring an eye mask, a journal and pen, and, if you wish, one meaningful item to place on the community altar.

    Connecting with Spirit: Awakening Your Intuition with Bill Philipps

    Art of Living Retreat Center, 639 Whispering Hills Rd, Boone · verified Sep 27
    See details

    This retreat offers a warm, grounded space to awaken intuition with guidance from psychic medium Bill Philipps. It centers on learning to hear the quiet wisdom beneath mental noise by noticing energy, vibration, and a felt sense of knowing. As you settle into stillness and presence, you reconnect with inner guidance and build confidence to trust it in daily life. Over the course of the weekend, the focus is on direct experience rather than theory. Guided meditations help calm the mind, while explorations of subtle energy and chakra balance deepen sensitivity and flow. Practical exercises reveal whether your intuitive strengths show up through seeing, feeling, or knowing, and partner practices provide a supportive setting to share impressions and affirm what you notice. Reflective prompts bridge spiritual insight with everyday choices so clarity can inform action. The program emphasizes clear perception, self trust, and practical presence, offering tools for meditation and energetic awareness that support emotional balance and self understanding. It encourages conscious decision making and personal growth within a respectful, nonjudgmental environment, inviting meaningful self discovery and a steady, reliable relationship with your own inner wisdom.

    The Three Realms of Consciousness: An Embodied, Emotional & Intuitive Journey with Seane Corn

    Art of Living Retreat Center, 639 Whispering Hills Rd, Boone · verified Sep 27
    See details

    This immersive weekend with Seane Corn invites a return to full-bodied presence through movement, breath, reflective ritual, and attentive stillness. Rather than analyzing the physical, emotional, and energetic layers of experience, you will engage them directly as sensations you can feel and trust. The process supports confidence in the body’s signals, greater ease with emotion, clearer awareness of where energy is flowing or held, and the ability to sense guidance that arises beyond thinking. Many find this work nurtures a calmer, more resilient nervous system and a grounded clarity that carries into everyday life. Sessions weave together alignment-focused vinyasa designed to steady and regulate, conscious breathing that encourages release and mental clarity, somatic inquiry to track sensation and uncover patterns, chakra-informed practices to notice how feeling and energy move, sustained quiet postures that cultivate deep listening, and creative ritual to anchor insight through intention and expression. The emphasis is on turning practice into lived wisdom you can return to long after the weekend ends.
