Wildness, Enchantment, and Hope:
Deepening our Engagement with Nature
an online Courage & Renewal® Retreat
7:00 pm October 20 – 12:30 pm October 22, 2023
This online retreat explores ways to
- enrich our relationship with nature
- discover the enchantment of speaking aloud the names of creatures, plants, and landscapes in danger of being lost forever
- revel in the gifts of small things.
Bringing an open-hearted love of nature back to life through the power of poetry, images, texts, and music we will offer time for personal reflection, and small and whole group conversation. We’ll follow the Courage & Renewal® approach to create a welcoming, caring, and trustworthy space.
We will take time away from our screens for personal reflection, and encourage participants to take time outdoors. Through small and whole group conversation we will follow the Courage & Renewal® approach to create a welcoming, caring, and trustworthy space.
We hope this retreat gives us an opportunity to recognize our roles in both ecological breakdown and ecological renewal. Wildness, Enchantment, and Hope: Deepening our Engagement with Nature holds an opportunity to navigate a shifting landscape with renewed energy and joy. We hope you’ll join us!

We are settlers on Treaty 13 Land, the traditional territories of many Indigenous Nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples, and home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples from across Turtle Island. We are committed to honouring the history this land bears witness to, responding to the 94 Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, and walking lightly on the Earth. A portion of proceeds from all our offerings are sent to: The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation and The Nii’kinaaganaa Foundation.
