Winter's Breath: Cold Moon Rising

An inward voyage of breath, sound, sacred ritual, and divine connection led by returning guest instructor, Sierra Kliscz.
Held within the potent energy of the Cold Moon, this retreat programming creates a sacred space for deep reflection, profound renewal, and spiritual alchemy. It’s an invitation to listen beyond the noise, to surrender into the embrace of winter’s sacred silence, and to emerge renewed, awakened, and aligned with your true nature.
Join us at Wild Rice Retreat Center in the Northwoods of Wisconsin for a sacred winter retreat under the luminous energy of the Cold Moon. Through guided breathwork, yoga nidra, and ceremonial circles, we will journey into the depths of your inner landscape, honoring the sacred cycles of darkness and rebirth. Experience the divine resonance of a sound bath, connect to your body with breathwork and movement, awaken your spirit on winter’s trails, and find refuge in the healing warmth of the sauna.
Join in any class you like, or choose to add them all over the weekend. Please note, signing up in advance is required for the afternoon and evening sessions. Contact Jenna Erickson, Assistant Retreat Director to register, jerickson@wildriceretreat.com.
