WHY MAINE?
With its rugged landscape and beautiful seascapes Maine evokes feelings of both earthiness and fluidity. Groundedness and creativity. Endurance and ease. Patience and delight. All the beautiful layers that make life and motherhood so raw and beautiful, too. We picked Maine for this retreat, because we believe its very nature is invitation to retreat to a simpler life, towards stillness, towards community.
We know that it takes a lot of courage, planning and effort to getaway for four days as a mother in a society devoid of the community all mothers deserve.
We invite you to make this investment not just for yourself, but for your children and in the knowing that it is our responsibility as mothers, women and wisdom keepers of the earth to heal, soften, and love from a place of deep rest.
WHAT ATTENDEES ARE SAYING
“I hope Rachael and Eva touch the lives of many more women”
“The Maine retreat was the perfect balance of rest and play. I didn’t expect to feel so comfortable in a group of mothers that I had never met before, but Rachael and Eva made everyone feel at ease right away. Everything is an invitation, nothing felt forced or dogmatic, like so many other things in our wellness-obsessed world.”
“I want to thank Eva & Rachael for their work in the world.”
