Healing for Healers: Threshold – A Return to Self
Fall Equinox One-Day Retreat
Sunday, September 21st | 1:30–8:30pm | Bragg Creek, AB
12 spaces available
It’s time to allow yourself to receive…
As the season shifts, so do we. The Fall Equinox marks a powerful threshold—equal parts light and dark—a moment of balance, reflection, and realignment. It is nature’s invitation to pause… to slow down… and to turn your attention inward.
For healers and space-holders, this season offers something deeply needed: a chance to step away from doing and finally receive care and nourishment yourself.
This one-day retreat is a ceremonial exhale—a return to your body, your nervous system, and the quiet knowing inside you. Through nature, ritual, and creative expression, we’ll tend to the parts of you that are tired from giving, that are longing to reconnect with yourself, and that are ready to receive with open hands and heart.
The Flow of the Day
1:30–2:00 | Spacious Arrival
Ease in, settle your body, and gently connect with others who are also entering this space of receiving and nourishment.
2:00–5:00 | A Soulful Reset for the Healer Within
Facilitated by Jen Reddish & Brea Livingstone
Step into the forest for a co-facilitated journey of rest, release, and realignment.
Held by the land and guided by Jen and Brea, this session blends somatic experiencing, internal family systems (IFS), forest therapy, and art therapy—offering true restoration for your body, mind, and energy.
Through slow, sensory connection and earth-based ritual, you’ll be invited to cross the inner threshold from overwhelm into balance. We’ll gently meet the parts of you that are protecting, giving too much, or simply worn down—and invite them into relationship, rest, and renewal.
This session includes space for solo reflection and a nature-based art journaling practice using found materials and intuitive prompts, inviting the forest to reflect back what you most need to see, feel, or remember.
This is a recalibration of your inner system—a chance to come home to yourself and what you truly need.
5:00–6:45 | Nourishing Dinner
A wholesome, catered meal shared in community.
Time to connect, digest, integrate, and simply be.
6:45–8:30 | Fall Equinox Ritual
With Jen Reddish, Brea Livingstone & Trina Metz
We’ll close our day together with a potent Fall Equinox Ritual—a sacred space to honour the seasonal turning point and the inner thresholds you’ve crossed throughout the day.
Through ceremony, guided reflection, and embodied release, during our fall equinox ritual we will gather in circle around a fire with a focus on:
Letting go of patterns, roles, or stories that no longer serve
Naming the wisdom you’re carrying forward
Reclaiming the parts of you that are ready to be seen and supported
Anchoring into a more aligned, resourced relationship with yourself
This ritual offers a threshold of its own—a moment to step consciously from doing into being, from self-protection into self-trust, from overgiving into receiving.
