Description

Welcome to the Mother! Nature has often been referred to as a mother, due to her comforting and regenerating effects. Now, scientists have found that mother trees-trees that nourish, protect, and heal the other trees and beings around them-exist in forested areas. West Virginia is full of beautiful forests and trees. Come find your peace in the forest! The weekend will start with a welcome event on Friday evening in White Sulphur Springs. You will receive an information packet, healthy hors d'oeurves (drinks and meal not included), and initial welcome puja ceremony. Then, Saturday morning we will meet in the forest for a forest bathing session (2.5 hours) ending with a tea ceremony. A picnic lunch will be provided (extra fee), or bring your own, and then each person will find their mother tree and honor her. End the afternoon by relaxing in the river while learning about structured water and snacking on fruits of the forest. Sunday morning, we will meet at the forest again and learn how to give and receive mother energy with your special tree. Raw fruit cleanses will be provided. Lunch on your own or picnic provided (for extra fee). A deep earth meditation and grounding will be performed, and we will close with a flower gratitude ceremony. All travel, lodging, and food is not included unless specified above. Weather can be variable, please dress accordingly. Plan to possibly get feet or other body parts wet.
