🌱GREEN FLOWER RISING🌱 Plant Medicine, Breathwork & Somatic Retreat

Green Flower Rising is a sacred, immersive, all-inclusive, four-night retreat in nature for adults 21+ who feel called to explore consciousness, reconnect with themselves, and discover what becomes possible when they slow down and tune in.

Breathe freely.
Move mindfully.

Let go of what no longer serves you.
Find your people.

Nestled in the beautiful Hockley Valley, just north of Toronto in southern Ontario, Canada, this intimate retreat invites you to go within and remember how to receive.

With a maximum of 15 participants, we've intentionally kept this retreat intimate so you aren't a face in a crowd. You'll be known, supported and held throughout the experience.

Together, we'll explore where breath, body, nature, consciousness, and plant medicine meet.

Why Cannabis, Breath and Somatic Medicine?

Cannabis is a legal, accessible and ancient healing herb that, when combined with intention, respect and ceremony, can become a powerful psychedelic. The same is true for breathwork and somatic work. But when all three come together in a sacred setting, each amplifies the others, creating an alchemical experience that is transformational and meaningful. Unlike other psychedelic experiences, Cannabis also provides agency, meaning you get to drive.

You will experience:

🌿 Intentional Green Flower Medicine Ceremonies: a gentle, respectful and completely optional relationship with a legal, ancient plant ally (Cannabis).

🌬️ Transformative Breathwork: guided practices designed to deepen embodiment, open awareness, and help you access what may be ready to move through you.

🌀 Somatic Practices: reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system and explore emotions through guided energetic movement, sensation and presence.

🌲 Nature Immersion & Earth-Based Ritual: spend time connecting with the land and the living world around you through intentional nature experiences and ritual.

✨ Guided Meditation & Inner Inquiry: create space to listen more deeply to your own inner wisdom and explore expanded states of awareness with choice, safety and support.

🔥 Community & Connection: share, laugh, reflect and gather with a small group of like-hearted people in a supportive and welcoming environment.

🌙 Rest & Spacious Integration: because transformation isn't just about the experience itself. It's about giving your body and mind the time and space to let the insights land.

This retreat may be calling you if...

🌱You feel like there is more to life than the way you've been living it.

🌱You want to reconnect with your body, your intuition and your sense of aliveness.

🌱You're curious about expanded states of consciousness but want to explore them in a safe, intentional and grounded environment.

🌱You want to deepen your relationship with breath, body and plant medicine.

🌱You're ready to let go of old patterns, beliefs or ways of being that no longer serve you.

🌱You want to amplify your relationship with Cannabis and learn how to use it with respect, intention and ritual

You don't have to have it all figured out.

You don't need previous experience with breathwork or somatic practices.

You don't need to know exactly what you're looking for.

You simply need curiosity, an open mind, and a willingness to explore.

Nothing is forced 🪷 Nothing is rushed 🪷 You are always in choice.

The power of a week-long retreat.

Breathing, moving, journeying and exploring inner worlds repeatedly over consecutive days is a powerful way to peel away the layers. Instead of chasing peak experiences, you create the conditions for something to unfold, complete & integrate.

This isn't about escaping your life.

It's about meeting yourself more honestly within it.

Come spend the week with us, surrounded by nature, supported by community, guided by breath and invited into a deeper relationship with yourself.

You may arrive looking for an experience.

You may leave having remembered something you already knew:

`~You have everything you need inside you~

🌱Come Rise With Us 🌱

"One of the biggest surprises for me was just how powerful cannabis is as a therapeutic medicine. It’s a very dynamic plant. The experience is gentler and more grounded than something like psilocybin, but no less effective. Instead of overwhelming the system, cannabis opens you slowly, layer by layer. It invites you deeper without pushing, which meant I could stay present with my emotions, trace sensations in my body, and actually work through things rather than just observe them."

******************************

"Johl was also a big part of the experience. The meditation he facilitated was one of the highlights of the retreat for me. He held the space with a calm, steady energy and you could feel the same passion, dedication and commitment to our growth in the way he showed up for everyone."

*******************************

"It was also an opportunity for me to try strobe light therapy, which definitely helped me to sleep better at night! The ability to integrate cannabis in ceremony took my experience so much deeper too. I definitely came away feeling more in touch with myself with a deeper love and peace with life."

*******************************

"I am a psychotherapist and have experienced Jen's power to heal at a breath work retreat I attended. I recommend her highly for her sensitivity and her connection with the field of energy healing. She is grounded and yet able to connect to people, animals and the plant realm. What a gift!"

*******************************

"Johl also played such an important role in the retreat. The way he facilitated meditation was gentle and supportive, and it quickly became one of the highlights of the whole experience for me."

*******************************

"Pete is such an amazing, intuitive human who genuinely cares about people and truly wants to help others heal their traumas and live a more aligned life. He uses different techniques that are incredibly effective, and the whole workshop was nothing short of amazing."
