Not quite tame
rediscover the real you
Not Quite Tame is a series of retreats designed by women for women with a passion for wellness and empowerment. Our goal is to create a memorable and unifying experience for women ages 18-101. These retreats are designed to help women rejuvenate and dive deeper into the understanding of who they are as complete and marvelous beings with many beautiful parts, some already being expressed and others repressed by societal norms. Attendees will forge new relationships, and learn healthy practices that will support their growth and reconnect with all the parts of themselves.
This series of retreats is loosely based on the book by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run with Wolves; Myths and Stories of the Wild Women Archetype. They are designed for Wild Women like you who love growth, playful freedom, and new experiences all within the confines of a safe and supportive environment. At our retreats you will be free to rediscover the real YOU while playing without guilt, pressures, or responsibilities.
We have chosen to offer our retreats:
-
in natural environments that offer feminine renewal. Here women can enjoy silent hikes, mindfulness and restorative practices such as art making, meditation, movement and sacred ceremonies
-
to women so that they can discover the magic of sisterly connection
-
with full immersion experiences so that a person can dive deeper while having lots of fun
