Healing with Nature: A Winter Solstice Retreat

Healing with Nature is a Winter Solstice retreat led by Rochelle Calvert at Drala Mountain Center, set amid the snow-quiet mountains near Red Feather Lakes, Colorado. Timed to the year's longest night, the multi-day retreat invites participants to slow down, turn inward and reconnect with the natural world through mindfulness, gentle nature-based practices and reflection. Open to the public and welcoming to all levels of experience, it offers a restorative container for closing out the year, blending meditation, time in nature and community in a serene high-country setting. Participants stay on the center's expansive grounds, moving between guided sessions, quiet contemplation and rest, with instruction offered supportively for newcomers as well as seasoned practitioners. It is an opportunity to honor the turning of the season, ease the pace of a busy year, and welcome the return of the light with renewed calm and clarity. Meals and lodging on site support a full immersive stay; see the center's site for pricing and registration.
