Get ready to disconnect amidst the stunning and tranquil North Woods of Wisconsin
Fall is our shortest season and one of the most beautiful times to spend in the north woods. It is also a time of year where we can look forward to slowing down from the constant activity of summer and discover time to fuel our creative fires and connect with others. This is how we feed our souls, fill our wells and replenish ourselves.
The Fall Retreat is all about you! There are countless events and activities that you can be part of--or not! The space is ideal for being active or low key.
You have choices and options to make this YOUR retreat. Bring a loved one along or wing it solo! Spend time relaxing, socializing (or not), hiking, biking, arts, food, massage, yoga, meditation, campfires, organized events… choose what resonates with you. Please see (loose) schedule below
"This is the call of the Dark One, The roar of life seeking its source. The union you long for is within reach.
Throw off all hesitation. Become one with fear. Plunge into uncanny blackness,
Eyes wide open, As if there were no other choice. Vibrating with fierce tenderness, Breathe intimately With the Source of Infinite Space."
Translation by Lorin Roche, Vijnana Bhairava Tantra — Yukti Verses |87|
