Women at Rest & Play Retreat

April 15-18, 2007

Breitenbush Hot Springs
Detroit, OR

Breitenbush1Give yourself permission to take a personal time out and learn the artful balance of resting and playing.

This women's retreat is for you if you want to reconnect with your relaxed and playful nature. Writing and wandering, coloring and collage, meditation and movement are a few of the creative endeavors you can participate in with like-spirited women.

Ample time will be given for both personal and group activities. In addition to our daily retreat offerings, Breitenbush is famous for its natural hot spring pools, tiled tubs and steam sauna, sumptuous organic vegetarian cuisine, labyrinth and ancient forest and river trails. You’ll leave Breitenbush feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and ready to put into practice the ideas and insights you received during the retreat!
