Women's Wellness & Yoga Retreat, August 5th-7th

at Great Oak Manor Inn on the Chesapeake Bay
Chestertown, Maryland

Join us on an extraordinary, exclusive retreat just for women!

As women of all ages and walks of life, we need to carve out time to nurture ourselves and enjoy the support and the community of other women. Escape with us and rediscover your own heart's wisdom and grace. Let your entire being unfold and relax. This is a time to enjoy the essence of being a woman.

We have taken care of all the details. You will be pampered and cared for; eat healthy, delicious food; enjoy gentle yoga sessions that invigorate your body; savor the sunsets over the bay; and be mesmerized by the sight of the heron, the eagle, and the osprey as they care for their young and spread their wings in the sky above you.

You will find many quiet spaces where you can wallow in the stillness of meditation and guided walks through the countryside. Lie in the hammock, swim in the Chesapeake, or take an afternoon nap in the shade - the possibilities to unwind and relax are boundless. Enjoy a shopping experience right at the Manor as we will bring in beautiful jewelry, scarves, shawls, skincare products, and exquisite candles to peruse. You may also venture into nearby Chestertown to shop and explore.

Create new dreams and intentions by making a vision board and string together your own custom mala to lie close to your heart. Learn techniques to nurture your mind, body, and energy system. Allow yourself to be guided through meditations and create sacred circles of connection and trust. Enjoy the mesmerizing flames of our own sacred fire ceremony and join us in our "morning pages" activity for journaling in the fresh pages of your new journal.

This is a journey back to yourself. Find the inner serenity and the tools to manifest your goals. In the evening slip into something comfortable and immerse yourself in complimentary skincare products, delicious masques, body butters, and fragrant hydrosols. Learn self-massage and reflexology techniques to soothe a headache or just to get back in touch with your own beautiful body. Giggle with us as we create a carefree and delightful evening of just being a woman.

We will encourage and inspire you to live more confidently, passionately, and creatively. We are confident that every one of us will leave the retreat with an open heart and a deepening capacity to trust and follow your heart's wisdom.

This nourishing retreat is held at the elegant manor house of the Great Oak Inn located on a ten acre, private estate right on the bank of the Chesapeake Bay. The luxurious rooms are double occupancy with king, queen, or twin beds, each with a private bathroom. The delicious meals are lovingly prepared and healthy, using fresh, in season, locally grown food. All activities are optional to allow you to go with your internal rhythms. There will be morning meditation walks, a yoga class each morning and afternoon, glorious sunset to savor, yoga nidra (guided meditations), and a trance dance to set free any worries or fears and release the old energy holding on to us.
