Witches Winter Sleepover
January 16th to 18th, 2027
Monte Rio, California
Women Only
Join us in the quiet heart of winter for a cozy and transformative Witches Sleepover nestled among the redwoods of the Russian River at a historic inn.
Guided by Artio, the Bear Goddess of wilderness, sovereignty, protection, and renewal, this intimate retreat invites us to enter the metaphorical cave of winter—a sacred space of rest, reflection, healing, and transformation.
In sacred circle, we'll journey within to meet the parts of ourselves who have taken responsibility for our healing. We'll listen with curiosity to the stories they carry: what they believe healing requires, what they have been trying to do for us, and what might become possible if they didn't have to work quite so hard.
Together we'll explore the Healer Within, making space to wonder: What is present when I don't have to fix myself? What already knows how to tend toward wholeness?
As the earth turns inward, we too are called to slow down and listen deeply to what is stirring beneath the surface. Together we will gather in circle to share ritual, healing, nourishment, laughter, and rest. Between ceremonies and quiet moments, we'll soak beneath the winter sky in the hot tub, allowing warmth, water, and stillness to become part of the medicine of the retreat.
Artio reminds us that healing does not always emerge through striving, but through retreat incubation, and trusting the wisdom of the dark season. In the cave, transformation quietly unfolds.
This gathering welcomes those longing for community, winter restoration, and deeper connection with themselves, the season, and the wisdom carried within.
Accommodations
In true sleepover fashion, this women-only retreat is designed around shared space, cozy connection, and communal care. Participants will share rooms, and some sleeping arrangements may include shared beds. Come with a friend, or arrive solo and let the magic of the circle introduce you to new ones.
Shared beds will be arranged with care and consent. If your body or spirit is asking for solo sleeping space, please let us know when you register. We will do our best to accommodate requests as space allows.
