Join me from November 1st – 3rd.

Under this Dark Scorpio New Moon on the first weekend in November we will gather together in Sacred ceremony, sisterhood and creation to connect deeply into your sacral chakra and womb space and connection into your intuition and Inner Goddess.

The Divine Creative Feminine is calling YOU.

And she is calling to her sisters and daughters from all over the planet to reclaim a nurturing and intimate relationship with her from deep within themselves.

She is calling because she knows EXACTLY what we need as we move into these times of massive change and transformation.

She is calling you to tap into your sacral chakra, the water element, your womb space and your creative and intuitive center.

She is calling you forth to boldly step into your full spiritual ad creative power.

Each woman has her own very special affinity with the sacred feminine which is universal in nature but also expresses itself in ways that are extremely personal and unique.

If you are feeling CALLED, then this retreat is for YOU.

Regulating Your Body and Soul Through Artistic Creation

In the hustle of our daily lives, finding balance and harmony within ourselves, our lives, and with the natural world can sometimes feel like a distant dream. Yet, the key to this equilibrium lies in the simple act of turning towards nature—not just as a place to escape to but as a source of inspiration and a medium for healing. I believe deeply in the profound connection between nature, art, healing, and well-being. Through activities like drum making and painting, we invite you to explore this connection, creating art inspired by the beauty of nature while regulating your body, mind, and soul.

The Healing Power of the Moon, Nature and Art

Nature has always been a wellspring of inspiration for artists, poets, healers, witches, herbalists, and creators throughout history. Its boundless beauty and intricate designs offer endless possibilities for creative expression. More than that, engaging in artistic activities inspired by nature can have a therapeutic effect, helping to reduce stress, improve mental health, and promote a sense of well-being. It’s a process that not only feeds the soul but also helps regulate the body’s response to the pressures of modern life. We can connect this even deeper to the cycles and rhythms of the moon and tap even deeper into our creative centers under this New Moon in Scorpio.

Embracing Nature’s Rhythms

We are Women, we are cyclical beings, we are creative and create life, and we are a part of nature—we are not separate. Participating in these types of artistic endeavors allows us to sync with nature’s rhythms, fostering a deeper connection with the environment, our cyclical nature, and within ourselves. It’s a reminder that we are part of a larger ecosystem, and by creating art inspired by nature and the seasons, we honor that connection, finding balance and harmony. We encourage you to embrace this time as a pathway to self-discovery and well-being. Saying YES and allowing yourself the space and time to explore these creative expressions that are deep within you, that want to be seen, heard, and felt. In doing so, you’re not just creating art; you’re embarking on a healing journey, one that brings you closer to nature, to art, and most importantly, to yourself.

Our Sacred Space

We will be staying at the beautiful Oyster Bay Resort for this retreat. Oyster Bay Resorts is located on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, between Campbell River and Courtenay/Comox on the Island Highway 19A. All the chalets have an ocean view of Georgia Strait where we will go and spend some time in meditation and reflection by the ocean to tap deeper into the water element. Cabins have two beds, one bathroom, and a kitchen and living space and will have 2 people per cabin. For more information, visit Oyster Bay Resort.

Who Is This Retreat For?

A Goddess Retreat is a magical experience for any woman. Perfect for solo travelers, friends and family, mothers and daughters—everyone and anyone who identifies as a woman is welcome. We incorporate various spiritual modalities along with art and creative projects—no art experience necessary—that will fill our time with laughter, love, focus, connection, and community. Transformation is inevitable. You will access or deepen your creativity and strengthen your connection with your spiritual practice. Something special and joyful happens when women come together in a positive, supportive space. I have witnessed so many amazing women blossom and bloom into their true, authentic selves. If this resonates with you, book now, as space is limited.

What Can I Expect At This Retreat?

This retreat is the perfect opportunity to fully embrace the fall season, honour the scorpio new moon and surrender into the darkness to allow whatever is no longer serving you to go. This weekend will allow you to escape the stresses of daily life and find inner peace and tranquility while also tapping into your creative and intuitive center. We will focus on the dark moon, the water element, our sacral chakra and our intuitive and creative nature . It will feature a unique blend of yoga, yoga nidra, meditation, journaling, oracle card reading, ceremonial cacao, ritual, art, drum making, song circle, nature therapy, ocean walks, and chakra balancing workshops. There will be time and space to relax and let go, to embrace the pause and stillness that fall brings, helping you find deeper peace, balance, and clarity within yourself.

Corinne Donnelly

Corinne Donnelly is a drum maker, painter, and tattoo artist originally from Clearwater, BC, now residing on Salt Spring Island, BC. She has been building and painting drums for six years, a craft she learned from Erik Jensen.

Corinne creates hand drums and drum beaters of various sizes using materials such as buffalo, elk, deer, cedar, maple, red rosewood, ash wood, rabbit, mink, coyote, cow, birch wood, arbutus, hawthorn, and hazel wood. Her unique style often includes crystals and precious stones wrapped in leather for drum handles, sometimes adorned with furs and beaded details.

Corinne is inspired to make drums as tools for healing and connection. The joy and healing energy that emanates from each person she creates a drum with is her ultimate inspiration. The materials themselves also inspire her; the process is intuitive, with each material speaking through feeling. This practice has significantly enhanced her subtle listening skills. The divine flow of this work reassures her that it is deeply rooted in her being.

Her design inspiration comes from geometry and mandalas, animals and botanicals, and ornamental details. For custom drums, much of the inspiration comes from a client’s intentions and desires.

The Sisterhood of Goddess Retreats

As we gather and connect in sisterhood, we are building a community of strong, open-hearted, mindful, and empowered women.

Since I was a little girl, I have felt a deep calling to connect and gather with other women—in circle, in art, in sport, in nature, in play, and in support and love.

My hope is to create a safe and welcoming space for ALL women to feel this bond and connection with like-minded sisters. This is a space where you can come home to your heart and be your true, authentic self.

Why the Empowered Goddess Retreat?

Gathering and connecting with other women is a natural and important part of healing and growth. To be seen, heard and understood by other women instead of in the energy of competition, judgment, envy, guilt or fear.

Let’s release the old, outdated ways of being and the societal conditioning that tells us to play small, that we are not whole as we are, that we are not enough and too much at the same time.

Let’s step deeper into our truth, our whole, embodied, intuitive, unapologetic selves and take our power back.

You are Love
You are Light
You are Beauty
You are Intuitive
You are Nature
You are Whole and Complete
You are Enough
You are the Sun, Moon and all the Cosmos
You are a Maiden, Mother, Witch, Queen, Wise Woman and Crone
You are already what you were seeking
You are an Empowered Goddess
