inner child medicine is for anyone who feels called to reconnect with their playful spirit, explore their inner world, and find healing through joy, community, creativity, and nature. you do not need to be an artist, a yogi, or have experience with “inner child work” to belong here. all you need is a willing heart and a little curiosity.

NO! inner child medicine is for ALL HUMANS who are ready to tend to their inner realms & step into their truest selves. While all of the facilitators (beyond our play director) are women, we welcome all humans and their unique experiences as a necessary part of our community.

absolutely. tending to your inner child can bring up big feelings… & that’s okay! we’ve designed this retreat to be a gentle and supportive space where you can go as deep (or stay as light) as feels right for you. there is no pressure to share more than you want, to “fix” yourself, or to force anything. you’ll be met exactly where you are, with love and respect.

NO! And… not no. “Plant-medicine” encompasses many things to us — the food we eat, the coffee we drink, and the land we play on. When prayed & done intentionally, sitting with cacao (the purest form of chocolate), flower essences (flowers and herbs that sit in water long enough for the water to receive their vibration), and cannabis or CBD (both legal in the state of New Jersey) can offer profound healing experiences… and this retreat will give the option to experience all of the above, if you desire, and none, if you choose! The experience is still full & full of transformation, with or without the addition of these beautiful healing teachers, which will all be utilized in a ceremonial & ritual-based format.

perfect & yes! most people will be coming solo. one of the magical parts of inner child medicine is the community we co-create. through circles, shared meals, art, movement, and laughter, you’ll quickly feel connected and supported. (plus, you’ll probably leave with a few new lifelong friends… and maybe even a new BFF bracelet!)

this is a choose-your-own-adventure weekend experience. we’ll offer activities like SUP (stand up paddleboard) yoga, hiking, and ecstatic dance — but everything is optional, and we encourage you to honor your body. whether you’re ready to hike to the top of the mountain or you’d rather float, paint, and chill — there’s space for you here.

not at all. each of our experiences throughout the weekend are about expression, not perfection. there’s no wrong way to paint, craft, cook, play, or express yourself here – as long as there is always reverence & respect for the space & the people in it!
