SUMMARY:(Guest Retreat) Sacred Embodiment: Pathway to Awakening Heart and Body
DESCRIPTION:Earthshine Lodge is a retreat center that welcomes hosts to offer a diverse range of retreats. While this particular retreat is independently organized and not affiliated with Earthshine Lodge\, we are happy to share the details to make it easier for you to explore and book. \nSacred Embodiment: Pathway to Awakening Heart and Body\nYoga & Nature Connection Mountain Retreat\nFriday\, October 10th\, 2025 – Sunday\, October 12nd\, 2025\nWith Wendy Swanson and Kathleen McIntyre \nAs the trees blaze with color and the crisp autumn air enlivens your senses\, we invite you into a weekend of sacred embodiment—where nature and yoga become pathways back to what’s most true. Through breath\, movement\, stillness\, and wild beauty\, you’ll awaken the quiet wisdom of your body and reconnect with the sacred presence that’s been within and around you all along. \nThroughout the weekend\, you’ll be gently guided through practices that support you in reconnecting with your body\, your breath\, and the living world around you. Slow flow and restorative yoga will help release tension and create space for ease and possibility. Guided breathwork and meditation will calm the nervous system and invite clarity. Therapeutic nature-based practices and ceremony will deepen your sense of connection with the sacred within and in the landscape. \nYou’ll be held by the mountains\, nourished by the crisp air\, and invited to listen deeply—both inwardly and outwardly. Through elemental Qi Gong\, intuitive writing\, and seasonal teachings\, you’ll attune to the rhythms of fall and learn to receive its wisdom. Spaciousness is built into the retreat\, allowing time to rest\, reflect\, and simply be—without pressure or agenda. \nThis retreat is a remembering—not of something far away\, but of what has always been close: your body’s wisdom\, the joy that lives beneath the surface\, your connection to the Earth and all that is sacred. It’s a gentle return to wholeness. In the company of nature and community\, you’ll be invited to soften\, listen\, and come home. \nAll are welcome—no prior yoga experience is necessary. Just bring your curiosity\, your breath\, and your longing to reconnect. \nYour Guides \nWendy Swanson\, L.Ac\, RYT-500\nWendy is a soulful\, down-to-earth\, and masterful teacher who blends yoga\, meditation\, and holistic healing to support personal transformation. A licensed acupuncturist\, published writer\, and seasoned international retreat leader\, Wendy brings over a decade of experience guiding groups into deeper embodiment and connection. Wendy lives in Charlotte\, NC with her husband\, daughter\, and their beloved flatcoated retriever. Wendyswanson.com \nKathleen McIntyre\, MSW\, MSFR\, LCSWA\nKathleen is a somatic therapist and retreat facilitator who guides others into deeper connection with their bodies\, the Earth\, and what is most sacred.

SUMMARY:Fireside Writing Retreat (calling all writers!)
DESCRIPTION:Fireside Writing Retreat\nJanuary 9-11\, 2026\n3 days / 2 nights (additional night available)\nWinter is indeed the perfect time to turn inward: to construct or refurbish our creative scaffolding. It’s also a time for quiet and rest–necessary acts of creative care for any artist. We invite you to join the 6th annual writing retreat at Earthshine Lodge. Our goal with this retreat is to offer a private\, comfortable\, and dedicated space in which to rest\, write\, and be inspired—and a community of creatives to support and encourage writing progress and goals. Join us with work-in-progress or come to create something new\, and plan to be inspired by the crackle of the fire and the icy blue of the winter mountains. \nWe are lucky to have local writer\, Katherine Scott Crawford\, hosting the retreat again this year. Coming off of her 2025 book tour for The Miniaturist’s Assistant\, she will be available to meet with each guests one on one. Her book will be gifted to each participant as well! \nMore information and reservations: https://earthshinenc.com/writing-retreat/
