Our Family Retreat is the heart of Chrysalis —
FIVE DAYS AND FOUR NIGHTS OF RECONNECTING AND CELEBRATING YOUR FAMILY.
The day in and day out of running a household and raising a family can fray the ends of any parent, including the spirit of the partnership.
As parents, we wanted to create a restorative space where logistics (food, activities, and even childcare) were taken care of, so families can focus their energy on reconnecting and nourishing themselves with play, mindful/ heartful facilitation, healthy food, music and campfire, elemental beauty, and celebration.
FORTIFY AND REIMAGINE YOUR FAMILY’S UNIQUE RITUALS TO BRING HOME WITH YOU.
FAMILY RETREAT IS FOR YOU IF…
> you need a break from running a household
> you want to show your kids that you actually ARE fun
> your relationship could use some reconnection
> you want to connect with more families with similar values
> stargazing and playing in nature with your family sounds wonderful
> if you hear one more ding on your phone, you’re gonna lose it
> you long to make rich memories with your family
> you love to make art with your kids
> family field games sounds awesome
