About the event
Step away from the digital hum and into the old-growth forests of "The Porkies." Rooted & Remote is an intentional backcountry experience designed for women who seek the medicine of the wilderness and the power of a quiet mind. This isn’t just a backpacking trip; it’s a moving meditation. While we will traverse the rugged ridges and hemlock-shaded trails of the Upper Peninsula, our primary destination is internal. This retreat swaps the physical yoga mat for the forest floor, focusing on:
- Deep Reflection: Guided sessions to help you process, release, and realign.
- Mindful Presence: Cultivating a "wilder mind" through hiking and forest bathing.
- Off-the-Grid Connection: Reconnecting with the elements, and one another, under the vast Northwoods sky.
