Creativity is a path towards connecting with our intuition and realizing emotional freedom. It is a spiritual practice that awakens our innate power.
During this retreat we will engage in yoga practices, meditation, and TRE to open to our spirit and then we will track the benefits by engaging in a series of art explorations led by art therapist Alix von Auenmueller. These tasks are designed to engage the senses, release obstacles, and open new pathways for creative expression. We will observe the openness to creative process at the beginning and the end of the retreat to discern how our practices shifted our awareness and connection.
The backdrop of the retreat is the beautiful Berkshires! We will meet in the Playhouse, a beautiful historical property in Lee Massachusetts. Plenty of free time is worked into the schedule so you can enjoy the natural wonders of the area.
A limited number of private rooms are available.
There are several dorm-style rooms, and you can stay off site in a location close by.

Bonnie and Alix met 23 years ago at the River Valley Waldorf School, bonding over crafting and parenting. While learning how to crochet and knit during the toddler/parent program, they also discovered patience and courage as their toddlers learned to use knives to cut apples and matches to light candles. Despite Alix's move to the Berkshires, their friendship endured, with occasional family get-togethers. A decade and a half later, their daughters are playing frisbee tournaments together in college, and Alix has returned to Bucks County. Interested in blending their shared interests in spirituality and creativity, they have led occasional workshops together and are now excited to co-lead a retreat.
