The Way of the Happy Woman Autumn Day Retreat

October 2, 2026

This is the first of a four-part seasonal retreat series to support you throughout the seasons. Inspired by Sara Avant Stover’s The Way of the Happy Woman, this one-day retreat offers a chance to step away from the pace of everyday life and reconnect with yourself, with nature, and with the rhythm of autumn.

Autumn invites us to slow down, notice what has grown, and gently release what we no longer need to carry. As nature releases what has reached the end of its season, we too can pause, reflect, and make space for what comes next.

Your retreat includes:

  • A copy of The Way of the Happy Woman by Sara Avant Stover

  • A journal for reflection

  • Gentle yoga, pranayama & meditation

  • Nature-inspired creative activity

  • Guided forest therapy

  • Nourishing seasonal lunch featuring the flavors of fall

  • Tea, coffee & seasonal treats throughout the day

  • A meaningful ritual to release what no longer belongs in the season ahead

Feel like you’ve traveled far away while staying close to home!

Your day away: $200

Leave with a little more clarity, a little more spaciousness, and only what you truly need for the season ahead.

This retreat will be held at a private residence in Evanston, IL. The address will be provided upon registration.
