@ Rivers Bend Retreat Center & Hendy Woods in Anderson valley

The day will begin at Rivers Bend Retreat Center in an old and magical grove, and from there we will go on a daylong journey into a lush redwood forest. We will meditate, dance, connect with our wildness, walk the river, swim, and do whatever else we are inspired to do among the wilds of Hendy Woods and the Navarro River.

- Solo time in nature
- Swimming on the Navarro River
- Gentle hiking/walking in the redwood forest in Hendy Woods
- Connection with other women
