Holistic World Retreats

Holistic World Retreats creates immersive experiences with amazing teachers and facilitators in relaxing and nourishing environments. Getaway from the distractions of daily life and sink in to learn more from a teacher and/or about yourself. Whether it is a women’s circle, meditation, yoga, food, or dance, for just you or as a family, we will have a retreat for you to enjoy.

Winter Reign’s initial intention for One World Center was to include retreats for traditional dance, but as someone who loves the opportunity of other healing retreat experiences, and loves collaborating with wonderful teachers and talent, she created Holistic World Retreats.

MOTHERTREE HEALING ARTS

Women’s Circle Autumn Equinox Retreat with Jess Lakin and Winter Reign

Joshua Tree, CA - September 20 - 23, 2024

Enjoy an autumn equinox weekend healing retreat, with Jess Lakin, D.Clin.Psy. (UK), Winter Reign, CH and a sisterhood of women, just 20 minutes from Joshua Tree National Park.

Mothertree retreats hold a safe and intimate space for women to unplug and unwind from regular lives. An opportunity to recharge through a nourishing environment and range of self-healing practices by connecting to the earth and integrating body, mind, and spirit through meditation, sound healing, mantras, sacred circle, ritual, Qi Gong, journaling, plant based meals, nature walks, inspirational conversations, and star gazing.

It is in this space of unwinding we are able to connect into our true selves, honoring where we are in our lives, open to inspiration and creativity, and from here, step forward.

Relax at the center with a light-filled yoga studio, saltwater pool, fire pit and gorgeous views of the high desert, for miles to see. We plan to gather for a late afternoon in Joshua Tree National park to dine and bid the sun farewell, amongst the subtle dance of Joshua Trees, before we gather again for a soundbath at the center.

Mothertree Women’s Retreats offer a nurturing and sacred space for women to come together, reclaim their connection, use their voices, be heard and be seen.

Mothertree Retreats are open to women of all ages and backgrounds. We find, in this space, we come together with equanimity.

As this is a women’s retreat with roots from the weekly circle led by Jess, we strongly encourage guests to attend at least one or two circles before attending the retreat. If you are not able to attend a Thursday night circle, you may connect through any of her other programs. This allows guests to become familiar with the energy and flow of her offerings as well as a way to weave into the connection women have built over time.

“Words can not encompass how extraordinary, spectacular, cathartic, and metamorphic the retreat was for me.

Words can not convey the groundbreaking, life altering healing, connection, and JOY I felt throughout my stay.

The epiphanies, revelations, and words of wisdom gifted to me (all of us) were/are priceless. The amount of gratitude I have in my heart space for the both of you for sharing your light is immeasurable.

I am no longer full or fulfilled… I am OVERFLOWING. Overflowing and beaming with the GOLDEN rays of feminine warmth and compassion that reignited my fire, my true passion for creation.

I thank, honor, respect and LOVE all the women in this circle ⭕️ for our bravery, brilliance, boldness, resilience, vulnerability, and BE-ing..... Each day that passes, I discover golden tokens of wisdom I can use on my journey.

Winter, thank you for nourishing and replenishing our bodies with your vibrancy and love.

“I’ve been on quite a journey the past 5 months. It started as an intentional time and space I created to look at and heal some things. Among many facets of what I have called my “container”, one intention I had was to deepen my connection to other women, and also to my own feminine spirit, intuition, and sense of wholeness in myself.

I found @jess.lakin on Instagram and joined her online Women’s Circle that she leads. We all met weekly on zoom and I immediately felt connected with these ladies. We had our first in-person retreat this weekend out in Joshua Tree. I met a few of these women for the very first time here. I had known most of them through their little zoom boxes over the past 5 months and finally got to see them in 3D and hug their sweet selves. What a world. What an experience.

What I didn’t expect was how NURTURING the time would be with all of them. We hugged and snuggled and listened to each others’ stories and cried and ate meals and climbed boulders and marveled at nature. The ability of women to hold tender, loving space is SO magical and something I have missed for a long, long time. And for my “container”, what a healing and full-circle way to ceremonially bring it to a close. It was such a powerful time to honor this new perspective and wisdom that I’ve gained through this journey, and all the gratitude I have for it. I am so incredibly thankful for the space we carved out to witness each other in deep ways. Carrying them and their stories in my heart, always. So grateful ✨ @mothertreehealingarts”

“Dear Jess & Winter, There was nothing random about your acts of kindness. Thank you for all that you have done to make this retreat so special.”

— M.S. SEDONA Feb ‘22

“Jess & Winter

This retreat was Amazing!! I came in looking for experience and like minded people. I received that and more. The support from you all made me feel not alone. I joined a sisterhood. A new awesome family and I am so happy that I made the decision to come. I’ve learned so much about motherhood with other mothers. Thank you so much for everything.

Love” E.W. - SEDONA Feb ‘24

“Jess and Winter

My heart and soul are open. I am thankful for this circle and I look forward to growing in this circle. You all have shown me what it is to be surrounded by strong minded humans and that they do exist!

With love,” T.B. - SEDONA Feb ‘24
