About the Retreat

Join Caverly Morgan and Tracee Stanley for 5 days of quiet reflection, meditation, deep rest, and sacred community. This retreat is an invitation to come home to yourself, to slow down, deeply listen, and remember your interconnectedness with the natural world and the more-than-human. You will leave with tools and practices to navigate challenging times as you transition from retreat back to daily life. Our time together will be a skillful weaving of morning silence, mindful movement, meditation, yoga nidra, and time for journaling or creative practice. Learn to rest in the spaces in-between with courage, devotion, and trust.

What to Expect

Together, we will engage with practices of internal ritual that honor stillness and quiet, and that allow us to let go of urgency. You can expect:

  • Morning meditation, gentle movement, and journaling
  • Deep rest and yoga Nidra
  • Earth dreaming practices and honoring the land
  • Practices for creative expression
  • Walking meditation
  • Dharma talks
  • Time for contemplation, self-inqury, and silence
  • Tea ritual

Beginners and advanced practitioners alike are all welcome. This retreat would serve as a wonderful introduction or a deepening of practice for those with more experience. Morning movement sessions will be gentle and accessible.

Why Attend?

Come home to yourself. In the quiet of the land, you’ll rediscover a stillness that daily life rarely allows—space to slow down, deeply listen, and remember your inherent wholeness and interconnectedness with the natural and more-than-human world. Through the restorative power of yoga nidra, you’ll access a depth of rest that goes beyond ordinary relaxation—meeting the subconscious layers where old patterns loosen and true renewal begins. And through contemplative inquiry rooted in nondual wisdom, you’ll touch what has never actually been separate—discovering that presence, and freedom are not somewhere else, but already here. Always now.

Explore the art of honoring the quiet practices—letting stillness itself become the teacher. You’ll leave with simple, sustainable practices for rest, presence, and navigating uncertainty—tools you can carry back into the texture of everyday life, long after the retreat ends.
