Hey Sister ~
This winter, if you feel called,
join us for a women’s gathering:
Tucson Reset
in Tucson, AZ
This gathering is for you if…
… you’re cultivating your particular medicine or magic, making use of your innate power
… you’re ready for a potentially life-altering experience facilitated by elders
… you’d enjoy being in community with like-minded women celebrating their uniqueness
… you’re ready for a change of scenery and some amazing meals
… you can get away for a few days in February or March (exact dates TBD)
~ Who’s Hosting? ~
Hi, I’m Kathryn, senior host. I study, embody, and teach the enneagram. I dance whenever I get the opportunity. I love to laugh and learn and commune with other women. Hosting retreats is one of my all-time favorite things to do.
This is my first time to host in Tucson and my first time to host with my beloved cousin Claire. It will be a wonderful experience for me. I hope you can come and share the joy!
Claire has been remodeling the house where her parents lived for many years. She’s eager to welcome her first (of many) women’s retreats there.
~ What You Can Expect ~
Let’s co-create an experience for peers: mature and maturing women
Claire and I would like to spend some time in the company of women who are doing interesting, edgy, potentially impactful things with their lives, just as we are.
So we’re inviting a small group of women to come together in community for a while.
Below are some options of what we might do with our time together. Want to play?
Mindfulness and presence
meditation and journaling
No prior experience or special abilities are required here. Just bring a journal and a pen you like for writing (or for drawing, or for scribbling, or for stabbing holes in pages).
Healing movement
freeform dance and play
I encourage you to bring your beginner mind – or, perhaps, your years of experience in movement – as we explore ways to nurture and heal ourselves playfully and with light hearts through freeform dance.
Magic
Witness and be witnessed in our imperfect perfection
If you’ve been invited, it’s because of the wisdom, strength, and goodness we see in you. Our vision is for us all to experience the particular magic we each hold.
Prepare to step together into greater power and mutual support during our time together.
And to have fun while doing it!
Plant medicine
nourishing meals
around an inviting table
Meals are included, starting with dinner on Wednesday and extending through brunch on Sunday. Please contribute generously to food costs and/or to bring something to share.
(If you thought this was about a different kind of plant medicine, ask. Perhaps we can plan an experience before or after the retreat … )
~ Details and Logistics ~
-
The retreat will happen over a long weekend — think Thursday evening through Sunday brunch — in February or March, as soon as the remodeling at Claire’s Tucson getaway is complete. Check back or subscribe to my newsletters for updates.
If you would like to work privately with Kathryn on a topic or to have a particular experience, you may arrange to arrive before the retreat date and/or stay extra days after the retreat ends.
-
The Tucson Reset happens at 1601 Moonridge Road. This is a house in a suburban neighborhood on the outskirts of Tucson.
-
There are hotel and BnB options nearby. Local women can join us for the day and go home to sleep.
If you would like suggestions for places to stay, please contact Claire at claire@cspeed.us.
-
This retreat will cost what you pay for transportation to Tucson and for lodging, plus any amount you would like to donate for food.
We’re not charging for your participation, as this is as much a treat for us as it will be for you. Come and enjoy.
We’re cooking. If you are moved to bring food to share, please let us know in advance so we won’t be drowning in guacamole …
~ What about … ~
… my special dietary needs?
We can do meal planning in advance, and you are invited to bring whatever you need for yourself.
… my physical limitations?
We’ll plan in advance to work with whatever you bring. All bodies are welcome.
… my aversion to crowds?
To facilitate the experience of intimate conversation and to keep distractions to a minimum so that we can engage in deep personal growth work, this retreat is limited to seven women total.
~ Kind Words for Kathryn ~
“Kathryn’s experiences are a lift for my spirit. She holds a beautiful space — a judgement-free zone where I can be myself ...”
“Kathryn has superpowers of empathy, leading to an ethereal but balanced wisdom. She has served as mentor to many through her deep study of the enneagram. In my view, she is the perfect guide, embodying experience, knowledge, and good judgment.”
“I encourage women to try this experience because it feels safe, natural, and authentic. There is no comparison, competition, or judgment — it’s open and supportive. ”
“When I show up and move in our community, I’m reminded how much more alike we are as human beings than we are different. After my practice, I often notice a real connection to my body and a lift in my spirit.”
