BALANCE

a NAMAHAI retreat

SEPTEMBER 19-21, 2025

Holding space for your transformation!

Step away from the noise and into the elemental rhythm of being.

Held on sacred land in the heart of the Hudson Valley, BALANCE is a weekend of reconnection with self, with nature, and with the creative spark that lives in us all.

Each day blends gentle movement, grounded ritual, and intuitive artmaking—from the slow swirl of marbling inks to the imprint of sunlight on botanical cyanotypes. You’ll gather flowers and herbs to bind into smudge bundles, and commune by firelight to share, drum, sing, or simply listen.

As we enter the harvest season, BALANCE is an invitation to explore and reconcile our duality. Softness and strength. Movement and stillness. Creation and release. You will leave with your hands full of handmade beauty, your body rested, and your spirit reignited.
