Winter Bliss: Women's Mindfulness Retreat
the light within
February 19-22, 2026
Winter has a kind of stillness that cannot be rushed.
The world slows, the air sharpens, and the smallest sounds begin to matter.
This retreat lives inside that quiet. It invite honest attention to the places that feel closed, guarded, or dimmed. It is a time to listen to what the body has been holding and to bring light where it has not reached for a long time.
The Light Within
Every person carries an inner current that guides how they stand, feel, and speak. Over time, that current can grow tangled through fear, self-doubt, or silence. This retreat offers space and guidance to notice those knots and to soften them with awareness.
​
The process unfolds through the body. Grounded movement builds trust in stability and belonging. Breath invites openness through emotion. Reflection brings understanding where confusion once lived. The heart learns to stay open, and the voice grows clear.
​
Guided meditation, journaling, and time on the land support this quiet work. Each practice invites balance and allows light to move more freely. The stillness of the season holds and protects the process, helping warmth rise again from within.
​
Winter Bliss is a gentle return to harmony, a reminder that even in deep quiet, light is always present and waiting to be seen.
Aldermarsh is a wooded 5-acre space integrated within its natural setting where community, collaboration and sustainability thrive.
