Mimi Young and Andrea Clark are excited to offer a new retreat this year: The act of making is one of the oldest available forms of return: to the body, to attention, to the ordinary pleasure of a thing becoming.

Many Hands is a five-day arts and crafts retreat at Nectar on Bowen for people who create, who practice, who carry a great deal and are in need of refreshment; who are ready to set some of it down for a few days in the company of others doing the same.

Join us for a transformative 4-night Silent Retreat at Nectar. Align with the quietude of the late Autumn season, fostering inner gentleness and intuitive insight. Experience the beauty of the forest here on Nexwlélexwm (Bowen Island), as you immerse yourself in silence and simplification, allowing yourself the gift of conscious deceleration. This retreat invites you to disconnect from any electronic devices, creating space for a deeper connection with nature, yourself, and the present moment.

Join Carolyn in a comprehensive 5 day course at Nectar Yoga on Bowen Island, designed to help you explore the profound benefits of breathwork for both personal wellness and professional application. Dive deep into the when, where, and how of various breathwork practices, including techniques for both down-regulating and activating the nervous system to achieve optimal health.
