SUNLIT RENEWAL
August 8th - August 10th, 2025
Gatherwild Ranch, Germantown, NY
Ready to get away?
Step into a weekend of gentle return.
Reconnecting—with your body through yoga, with your mind through guided self-inquiry, and with the earth through mindful time in nature.
Let stillness speak and movement soothe. Let sunlight soften what’s been held too tightly. Through meditation, psychology-infused workshops, and immersive natural rhythms, you’ll be invited home—to yourself.
This is a space for slowing down, for deep listening. Come as you are, leave renewed.
