Replenishing the Well

Absolutely! Once you register for the retreat, you'll book your lodging directly through Joyful Journey Hot Springs. They offer a range of cozy, affordable accommodations to suit every comfort level:

• Lodge Rooms (private or shared): $200–$245/night

Whether you prefer a plush room, a glamping experience, or sleeping under the stars, there's something for everyone.

Joyful Journey is located in Moffat, Colorado, in the San Luis Valley.

You can fly into either Denver International Airport (DEN) or Colorado Springs Airport (COS)—Colorado Springs is about an hour closer.

If you need ground transportation, let us know. We’ll do our best to connect you with fellow participants who might want to share a rental car or ride.

In late June/early July, you can expect warm, mostly sunny days and cool nights, with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms. Great conditions for soaking, ceremony, and restorative pause. 

Be sure to check local weather conditions before you pack your luggage. 

This 4-night retreat is structured as a sacred pilgrimage through the archetypal path of feminine healing. 

Each day is devoted to a different stage of the journey—Maiden, Mother, Queen, and Crone—guiding you into deeper layers of self-love, body acceptance, and emotional freedom.

Our rhythm is both structured and spacious, with a mix of group teaching, journaling, guided EFT Tapping, movement, ritual, and restorative time for soaking in the healing waters or walking the sacred land.

A daily flow can include:
Sunrise soak + light, hydrating breakfast

Morning teaching, EFT Tapping, and journaling
Midday buffet-style lunch + spacious rest
Afternoon creative session, movement, or ritual
Optional evening ceremonies: labyrinth walk, singing circle, sound healing

Here’s a suggested packing list:

• Comfy clothing for sitting, lying down, and moving
   
• A celebratory outfit for the opening ritual
   
• Easy slip-on shoes (for entering the yurt and hot springs)
   
• A yoga strap, belt, or scarf
   
• Swimsuit, towel, sunhat, and sun protection
   
• Reusable water bottle
   
• Journal and pen
   
• Flashlight or headlamp
   
• Bedding and towels (if camping in a tipi)
   
• Anything else that feels comforting and fits in your bag
   

✨ And leave room for a few take-home gifts and souvenirs!

To honor the integrity of the retreat container—and to support both your journey and the collective experience—we ask that all participants attend the full retreat from Wednesday’s opening circle through Sunday morning’s closing.

Every part of the pilgrimage is intentional, and your presence matters.

Our meals are designed to support gentle nourishment, digestive ease, and intuitive eating—all lovingly prepared by our private retreat chef.

We follow an intermittent fasting-inspired rhythm, offering:

• A light, hydrating breakfast (fresh juice, bone broth-based soup, vegetarian option)
   
• A buffet-style lunch with a variety of simple, whole foods, dressings, and toppings to mix and match
   
• Snacks and herbal teas available throughout the day
   
• No formal supper is provided, but optional dinner can be ordered from Joyful Journey
   

Meals are served communal and casual in the Casita. While we can't customize every dish, the buffet-style setup allows you to build your own plate in a way that works for your body.

There will be no alcohol served during the retreat.

Cannabis is legal in Colorado, and Joyful Journey is a cannabis-friendly space. You’re welcome to bring your own alcohol or cannabis for personal use in the evenings, after sessions have concluded.

We simply ask that you arrive at all retreat activities in an alcohol- and cannabis-free state, to support the clarity and sacredness of our group container.

This retreat is for you if you’ve been feeling spiritually adrift in today's turbulent times, facing a crisis of meaning and feel exhausted by endlessly trying to fix yourself and worrying about the state of the world.

Retreat tuition is non-refundable, as your registration secures your space in a small, intimate group and supports significant planning on our end.

That said, if you need to cancel, I’ll gladly offer you a 6-month credit toward working with me—through private coaching, the Women, Food & Forgiveness Academy, or another program.

I strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance for peace of mind in case of illness, emergencies, or unexpected changes.
