This special retreat features a new moon ceremony , and a new moon themed weekend.
The New Moon is a time of sowing new seeds. What is really important? What direction am I headed? Am I putting my energy into a direction that will bring me the most happiness? Our yoga, journaling and ceremony will help us direct our thoughts as we enter the beginning of a moon phase.
A magic moment occurs as you exit I-88 from Chicago and merge onto Rt. 30. Subdivisions and mammoth office buildings give way to cornfields, barns and long rows of wood fencing. It’s like leaving Oz and entering Munchkinland. And so begins a retreat at Soul Farm.
As you exit our gravel road and meet at our little cottage, you’ll be greeted with snacks and friendly Soul Sisters, also looking for a bit of peace from a hectic world. This retreat includes several full moon themed yoga practices, opportunities for a massage in our old corn crib or one on one time with our horses, forest meditations in our private woods, and other activities.*
A two night stay includes a full dinner Friday night, a full brunch Saturday morning, afternoon snacks and a full dinner Saturday night. The retreat completes with brunch on Sunday. Light snacks are served in the early mornings before yoga, along with coffee and tea.
Our bathhouse has two airy, clean flushing toilet rooms with running water sinks (hot and cold, of course!) as well as two spacious, private, but open to the fresh air showers with plenty of hot water. It’s clean, fresh and invigorating.
Our bunkhouse or tent beds are comfortable, with real linens, and the sounds of crickets, frogs and woodland birds will lull you to sleep. Rustic and outdoorsy, but with the touches that make your retreat an inspiring and relaxing experience. Remember, if it’s important to book with a friend, book together!
*Massages, one-on-one horse experiences are available at an additional fee.
Friday, 5:00pm – Sunday, 12:00pm
