Reclaiming Joy: A Trauma Healing Retreat

July 25th OR September 26 9am-3pm

A retreat created to hold a safe space for you to find healing and empowerment as we nurture our bodies and minds with nature, art, and horses, Reclaiming the Joy we hold inside.

Using somatic awareness and body-based practices, we’ll focus on:

Supporting nervous system regulation
Building emotional resilience and capacity
Creating space for grief, anger, and healing
Reconnecting with a sense of agency and empowerment

This is a space where we empower individuals to embrace their authentic self in the full circle of creation, nurturing, connecting, spirituality and transformation.

You will find a renewed sense of self through the healing presence of nature, artistic creation, and horses.

What to expect:

*A greater connection to self

*Artistic Creation

*Holistic Healing

*Connection with horses (no riding involved)

*Understanding connection between physical and mental health

*A safe space to process and begin the healing journey

This is a trauma-informed, supportive environment where your lived experience is honored. You are welcome just as you are. This retreat invites you to find a gentle focus on connection and belonging, helping you to feel more anchored in both yourself and within your community.

Healing is not meant to be done alone — and here, you don’t have to do it alone.

Gordon's Green Gables sits on the traditional land of the Dakota, Sioux, Anishinabe, Chippewa, and Ojibwe peoples. We acknowledge their ancestors who lived in the Hugo area and were forcibly removed from here. Hugo was the summer land of the Dakota people who harvested wild rice from the lakes in this area. Honoring the past, present, and future Indigenous stewards of this land is one small way that we are working to decolonize and spread awareness of historical truths.
