Less Boulders, 

More Water.  

Hey dads, it's time to put down that boulder & put on a swimsuit!

 

⁠Over 80 percent of you reading this are women & the same breakdown exists for those who actually make it to our shores. ⁠⁠Most, but not all, retreat, workshop & wellness experiences are comprised of women. ⁠

 

⁠Sure, families and couples often make up our guests, but the majority are the girlfriends getting away, sisters on a road trip, and solo female travelers with a good book. 

 

⁠And yet, for the men who make it here, and you know who you are, the benefits of slow days, digital detoxing, lawn yoga, meditative mornings & quiet sober evenings are perhaps even more potent.  

 

⁠There is a universally profound magic when a human mind, body & soul sits within nature to do exactly one thing - ⁠Nothing. To just be. ⁠

⁠Of all the unhelpful roles society orients men to perform, the need to constantly DO something is perhaps the most exhausting (for everyone).

 

The need to fix, perform, provide, instruct, inform, achieve, accomplish, accumulate, and oh so much more can’t be a 24/7 assignment. The act of “doing” often gets in the way of artfully "being". And while there is a time for both, society seems confused when men lean in to self care, stillness & slow moments of nothingness. 

 

It doesn’t always know what to do with GENTLE-MEN.

 

This Father’s day, consider gifting that man in your life the space to be his most GENTLE SELF. ⁠Our families, communities & planet can feel like a heavy lift and dads out there are often the first in line to carry that boulder. 

 

This weekend, don't forget to remind him to PUT IT DOWN every so often.

 

Need some ideas on how to gift stillness to the dad energy in your life? From a weekend soak alongside Qigong, Sauna, canoe rides to Gift Cards, discounted stays, or a Summer Concert package, we've got your gentle man in mind. 

Sound Bathing is a surreal experience of letting music take you into a one of a kind transformative state that heals, relaxes, connects, and AWAKENS THE SLEEPING SOUL!! ⁠

Whether it's folk, rock, hip hop, pop, classical, or electronic, our Series offers up a unique blend of soaking and sounds that are meant to transform the way you experience live music.

 

Explore our calendar for show details and ticket packages, including freshly released packages and stays for Shrink The Giant on Sat 6/27.

Returning to Balance Workshop 

This weekend, Sat 6/20 Shoshone Truth-teller, Elder, & Activist Darren Parry is teaching “Returning to Balance: Indigenous Pathways for Conflict, Repair, and Healing , a 2 hr workshop on our shores and you’re invited to take a dip into a different path forward. 

If you haven’t noticed, certain cracks within the collective psychosis that fuels consume-at-all-costs capitalism are beginning to emerge.

 

The people are starting to say ENOUGH. 

 

Enough extraction, enough expansion, enough exploitation - of our land, our water, our cultures, our unity, our livelihoods, our social fabric, and our very sense of what it means to be human. 

 

Now, perhaps more than ever before, Einsteins sentiment that we cannot solve current problems with the same thinking that created them has never felt more true. 

 

As if the hustle of modern man is finally laid bare for what it really is - a runaway train heading straight towards a cliff. BUT, HUMANS have not always thought, behaved, and collaborated with this dysfunctional ME ME ME set of values. 

 

There are other ways and on Sat 6/20 , Darren together with conflict resolution facilitator Sierra Benson Collet, will guide us through the indigenous roots of land and community-based processes for managing conflict, repair, and sustainable co-habitation moving forward. This 2 hr workshop includes lunch and an afternoon of soaking afterwards.
