Co-Ed Winter Silent Retreat
January 9-11, 2026 at The Hive in Sparta, MI
Begins 4:00 PM on Jan 9 • Concludes 3:00 PM on Jan 11
In the heart of winter, when the land grows still and the days are quiet, we are invited inward. This retreat is an opening into silence—not as emptiness, but as a presence that restores, softens, and renews. Together, we will share in the sacredness of quiet, listening for what emerges when words fall away and our bodies can rest into the deeper rhythms of being.
Nestled within 27 acres of open land and forest, this retreat offers ample space to wander, breathe, and reconnect with the natural world.
Why Silence?
Silence is a teacher. It allows the nervous system to reset, the heart to attune, and the body to remember its natural pace. In shared stillness, we feel the beauty of being together without performance or pretense—a collective energy that uplifts even in its quiet.
What the Retreat Offers:
Hot tub and sauna for warmth and renewal
Saturday morning Sound Bath to deepen rest and resonance
If snow allows, we’ll walk a snow labyrinth together
Quiet studio space with cozy nooks for reading, journaling and creative expression
Individual sleeping pods for private, restful nights
Nourishing meals: self‑serve breakfast, hearty late lunch, and dinner provided
Who This Is For:
Anyone craving nervous‑system rest and recalibration
Practitioners and caregivers who hold space for others
People seeking quiet spaces for integration
Folks curious about contemplative practice in a grounded, inclusive container
No prior retreat or meditation experience required
This retreat is co‑ed and gender‑inclusive. All bodies and identities are welcome.
