Join us on the beautiful grounds of Hope Springs Institute for a playful retreat away from the stress of the everyday world, surrounded by nature, and nurtured by healthy gourmet food.
Deb Jewett holds a deep nurturing presence to allow your inner child to feel safe and supported with activities like drumming with found objects, internally inspired movement, and creative art.
Dr. Joel Ying is physician and master storyteller. His presence emanates peace and steadiness as we uncover and reflect on life’s stories in playful and fun exercises. Learn about the science and benefits of play for health and wellness.
Let yourself be nurtured…
