We have thoughtfully chosen the Liz Grey Pavilion as our reiki healing room.

This stunning octagonal building, situated next to the magical labyrinth, holds an energy of healing and tranquility, perfect for our journey together.

During your time here, you’ll be invited to fully relax and unwind as you experience a 90-minute Reiki session. This healing space is designed to help you process and integrate the emotional work you’ve been doing throughout the weekend, offering a deep sense of restoration and inner balance.

We’ve carefully chosen the Field Memorial House as our dedicated meeting space. Perched atop a hill, this serene building offers breathtaking views of the lake, creating a peaceful and soothing environment. 

We will gather here to create our ancestor altar above the cozy fireplace. Your IADC sessions and morning sound healing meditations will also take place here, supported by our ancestor altar.

On Saturday night, we will gather for a transformative fire ceremony to honor our ancestors and deepen the healing journey of the retreat.

This sacred ritual, set against the backdrop of the peaceful waters, invites you to release grief and set your intentions for healing.

As the flames rise, we’ll symbolically offer our grief to the fire, allowing it to cleanse, transform, and renew our connection to both our loved ones and ourselves.

Surrounded by the elemental power of fire and water, this ceremony serves as a profound moment of reflection, release, and spiritual connection.

Be sure to bring layers of clothing to wear outside by the fire. We recommend also bringing appropriate footwear as the grounds can be wet during the Spring months.
