Ecotherapy Retreat
Embedded Files
In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in routine. In this ½-day Ecotherapy Retreat, we offered a powerful solution: a chance to slow down, reconnect with nature, and cultivate mindfulness and creativity. Participants engaged in quiet, reflective walks, observing the beauty around them and gathering natural treasures to foster healing, connection, and self-expression.
Through activities that engage the five senses, attendees were reminded of the power of presence and mindful awareness, learning to fully immerse in each moment. The retreat concluded with journaling to reflect on the experience and a light, healthy lunch, leaving all feeling refreshed, inspired, and grounded.
For anyone seeking a break from stress, a deeper connection to nature, or a way to nurture creativity and self-awareness, Ecotherapy Retreats provide a restorative space to pause, play, and reconnect - and leave feeling renewed and empowered.

I attended a day retreat hosted by Jamie, and it was such a great experience. She made everyone feel super welcome and comfortable right from the start. Jamie showed us how to slow down and tune into our five senses, and it really helped me be more present. The whole day was relaxing, enjoyable, and left me feeling refreshed. I’m so glad I went!

I have been a part of several different programs with Jamie and I had another good experience at her ½-day retreat.

A small group of us women gathered and choose notebooks to write down our thoughts before a quiet walk, focusing on a specific topic. I enjoyed watching the different strides of the women as we walked, some fast and some slow, each of us quietly taking in the surroundings of nature (trees, flowers, etc) until we arrived at the neighborhood park and found something of nature that we were drawn to.

Another activity I enjoyed was a sensory exercise with a strawberry. We observed it, took a tiny bite and noticed the taste and texture, paying attention to our feelings as we chewed; I even ate the stem, it was a cool experience.

Then we took the items we gathered at the park and made a piece of art with them, which connected us all together, and shared why we chose the item. After some quiet time to write, we hiked back for a light lunch.

My take away was to slow down like a snail, be a gentle river flowing down stream, connect with nature, touch a tree, ground myself daily, CHOOSE TO RELAX, try to eat the rainbow in each meal, and to remember to enjoy the moments in nature, food, and with friends.
