Retreat for Mothers
Whidbey Island, WA
Nourishment in Nature.
Nourishment in Sisterhood.
Nourishment Within.
For the Mother who
...longs to feel more connected, replenished,
supported and cared for.
...notices her role as caregiver, nurturer, task-doer, and emotional sounding board leaves her feeling disconnected from her own sense of self.
...is seeking sisters to lean on as she
navigates motherhood.
...wants to nourish her inner spark.
Dear Sister,
Can you picture yourself huddled around a warm hearth, mug of soup cupped between your palms, sinking into conversation with new friends as the evening settles in and the firelight flickers?
Are you called to be in circle with like-minded women, moving, breathing, meditating and expressing, held by the richness of green forest?
Are you longing to step away from the frazzle of the everyday and have a space to deeply honor yourself & tune in to the small voice inside that has so much wisdom and love to share with you?
If so, we hope you will join us.

We gather during Imbolc, the ancient Celtic festival marking the very beginning of spring and the Feast Day of Brigid, Mother Goddess of Ireland.
In Old Irish, Imbolc means "in the belly," which refers to the pregnancy of ewes at this time of year.
This in-the-belly time, when there is a spark of potential in the darkness within, but it has yet to take form...
When the thick of winter is just being overcome, and the first whiff of spring is gestating beneath the surface of the earth...
Is a perfect time to replenish our own soil, bringing love and care to our own inner garden.
At this time we will nourish
our roots,
our base,
our core energy...
So that we may bring that warm flame back
to our children and families
and most importantly,
back to Ourselves.
Composting the energy generated from our retreat into the soil of our own
sacred bodies and souls
so that we may continue to replenish and care for ourselves in more complete ways
going forwards.
Brighid Mother Goddess of Ireland by Jo Jayson
As Mothers, we are the ground
from which humanity springs!
We set the tone in our homes and families.
Our states of mind and energetic imprint reverberate out into the lives of those closest to us and into generations to come.
Unfortunately our culture does not support or encourage mothers to do the important & revolutionary work of tending to ourselves.
Therefore, it is up to us to create the space
to give our own soul-soil the vital nutrients it needs to flourish.
N O U R I S H
is an opportunity to do just that;
to root down, replenish, and rise...
in blossoming, in wholeness, in sacred sisterhood—
as the vibrant woman and mother that you are.
We hope you will join us for this special weekend,
held by the beautiful forests of Whidbey Island, WA.
Whether you are a mother to young children, teens, or adults who have flown the nest; whether you are a grandmother, a caregiver, a pregnant mama, or a woman calling in a child to conceive in the future,
there is a place for you in our gathering.
We even have private accommodations available for a mother with a babe in arms (along with your support person), allowing you to join us solo for workshops and nurse during free time and meals. Nursing package available on first come first serve basis, please reach out to inquire more: hello@bridgidroney.com
Join us!
