Summer Solstice / Four Elements Women’s Retreat
June 21-23, 2024
CP House of Prayer (formerly Shantivanam)
Easton, KS
For centuries, cultures across the world have found ways to cultivate our inner light and power by celebrating the Summer Solstice. Likewise, the practice of awakening the body through working with the four elements of earth, air, fire, and water has enlivened a deeper understanding of our own presence here on this Earth.
These practices together offer us an embodied understanding of how connected we are both to each other and to this sacred planet on which we live. What a beautiful opportunity!

Celebrating Relationship: A Mother-Daughter Women’s Retreat
DATES TBA
Join me for this special weekend as we celebrate the unique bonds between mothers and daughters. Breathe, Laugh, Love! That’s what we’ll be doing together: breathing together through yoga, laughing as we share stories and engage in special mother/daughter activities (including some fun games!), and loving as we deepen our bonds and understanding of each other through contemplative activities and just spending time together in beautiful sacred space.
This retreat is designed for adults, although mature teens are welcome, too. And yes, step daughter/step-mother, grandmother/granddaughter, godmother/goddaughter, and other unique ‘mothering/daughtering’ pairings are welcome!
“I am lighter now, more aware - and have a more acute enjoyment of all I am sensing... Cindy is equal parts wise, kind and encouraging. She will help welcome you into your own heart. ”
““Cindy is sooo warm-hearted! Her classes allow the space to be both profound and supportive but also light and joyful… like a sunny clearing of wildflowers in the middle of a gloomy, dark forest. Very inspiring!” ”
