Rest and rest well *but* let’s use it as fuel to keep going.

If you are currently in a place of privilege (or have come from a place of privilege) the world is on fire and we need your help. We can’t do it all, but we can all do something. Maybe it’s sharing information. Maybe it’s reading/educating yourself. Maybe it’s volunteering. Maybe you’re an awesome leader and you’re called to organize. Maybe you’re a healer and your important work is tending to the community. It’s all important.

We advocate rest as inspiration for action (not as a place to dwell and linger and bask in the comfortable privilege that has been stripped away from so so many)

We have two opportunities for inspired rest

Ohhh, do we have an AMAZING weekend planned for YOU! 🔥🔥🔥 🚨 NEW DATE!!! 🚨

This past Spring I was chatting with michelle ricica at a RESISTA event & she mentioned how she, her crew Gem City Action , the lovely folks at DIFA and the community as a whole needed a this summer (fighting f@c!sm takes its soul toll) but that she didn’t feel like she or anyone else in her circle had the time or bandwidth to plan one. After thinking it over, I reached back out to Michelle & Melissa (Mel) Rodriguez and enthusiastically volunteered. The goal was always to host retreats when we started the Dayton Wellness Collective, but we wanted to begin this journey with smaller workshops to give us space grow into our roles. And after 2.5 years of serving our community and our collective with dreamy workshops filled with education, vibes, and community, we think it’s time to launch our first EVER retreat! And if you are a fan of camping, we want to invite YOU!

Join us Friday Sept 25th 5p - Sunday Sept 27th 1230p in Caesar’s Creek for our Activist Camp Out Retreat where we will offer:

🏄‍♀️ Paddle boarding (thanks SurfDayton and Tomfoolery Outdoors !)
🧘🏻‍♀️ Yoga with singing bowls with Melissa Holmes & Wenches of Wormwood
🪷 Guided Meditations with Emily Underwood
💚 Somatic Healing with Emily Mays
💆🏻‍♀️ Massage with Faith Ritchie LMT
✨Reiki with Ginger (Athena G)
🛶 River Kayaking Sat afternoon
🌅 Sunset Paddle board Soundbaths with Tricia Marie
🍽️ Catered Dinners
🔥 Live Acoustic Music
🌈 Tie Dye Activist Shirts
📝 Writing Workshop
🌌 Astronomy with Elizabeth Schumacher-Berger

If that sounds like an incredibly fun weekend to you, we would LOVE to have you join us!

We have 60 spots available and 50 tickets left. Find more info in our 🔗!!

Come relax with us. It’s been a stressful few years and you deserve it ☀️🔥😎⛺️

in psychology refers to creating mental imagery in the mind’s eye or in one’s imagination. It can include conjuring up images of places, past memories, possible scenarios, or future creations (to name a few) and is used to influence thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. And the benefits are far reaching. Utilizing this practice can help unlock a vast array of elements of your life including:

🪷 reaching goals that once felt completely out of reach
💆🏻‍♀️reducing chronic levels of stress and anxiety by engaging the parasympathetic nervous system
👑 enhancing self confidence and feelings of sovereignty
🧘🏻‍♀️ enriching emotional regulation
💚 improving overall mental and physical wellbeing

Not bad for just an imagination practice, eh? But how can visualization be so powerful? Many reasons that we will get to below but mostly because of one very fascinating reason that we touched on earlier in the article - seeing an object and imagining the same object lights up virtually the same neurons in your brain. Translation? The brain (specifically your subconscious that sneakily rules your inner dialogue) isn’t completely differentiating between what you are seeing (physical reality) and what you are expertly imagining (internal reality). Therefore you are able to align your subconscious with your conscious goals, preparing your mind and body for success prior to it occurring. But how does this work? And how would one do this expertly? Let’s dig deeper into the neuro science of creative visualization (continued in blog article)

What does and unhinged embroidery have in common you ask? Both make our heart sing! Especially when we honor the new moon in Gemini (and thus the yin/yang twin nature and duality of life)

🌙 relax with a guided new moon meditation

🧘🏻‍♀️ flow with Megan (co owner of )as she takes us through a gentle yoga practice

🍷 sip on some delightful crafted herbal mocktails

🧵 follow along with Angie ( ) as she shows us how embroidery + craftivism can upcycle your clothes (kind of like a political activist glow up for your garments)

$25/ticket (or $45 for 2)

Can’t wait to see you!!

“I was thinking about sage and its effect on sore throats and snotty noses (midwest mom of three here). I was visualizing its healing properties nourishing my family, a ritual I learned from my Mother (who’s favorite love language is undoubtedly cooking). And reflected on how deeply the yearning to learn more about plants, their medicine, and their spirit has switched on in me. Realizing that there could be a much more soulful connection to what I cook or ingest beyond a list of flavors or ingredients. That bringing my awareness to this connection could transform herbs from items I buy at my local grocer to extraordinary gifts bestowed from Mother Earth.

The Gaia theory postulates that the Earth is its own conscious living organism, one who provides a purposefully optimal environment for its biological inhabitants. I wondered if my ancestors knew this to be true, just like how they knew the sun would rise in the morning. That the land, sky, and water had a form of consciousness that communicated in subtle ways if we knew how to listen. Perhaps that is why they celebrated the change of the seasons together, marking cycles with gratitude to their planet. The land was not a place to pillage and poison, but rather a generous spirit to receive from and give back to.

But, pillaging, poisoning, and profiting slowly spread and became normalized. And although we are indeed part of this beautiful intricate organism, over time we have been systematically severed from her, and her many gifts.”
