Rates and Registration

The tradition of The Indigo Connection's spring women's retreat continues as we travel to a new venue nestled in Ohio's sacred Appalachian foothils and just a short drive from the historic Serpent Mounds.  

As daughters, sisters, mothers and grandmothers, we are called to gather for empowerment, collaboration and interconnectedness. Under the Beltane full moon of spring on Mother's Day Weekend, we will explore our personal and collective relationship with our ancestral mothers and celebrate the Divine Feminine through immersion in the earth energies of the historic Serpent Mound and our private, sacred retreat space in Ohio's Appalachian foothills.

You will enjoy a wide variety of healing and restorative experiences including creative expression, home-cooked healthy meals, movement, transformation tools, and delightful messages to awaken your senses and life purpose. Betsy and Gaisheda will blend energy psychology, Emotional Freedom Techniques and energy medicine practices with shamanic wisdom and artistic expression as we explore  what's next for each of us as wisdom keepers who lead, nurture and co-create a legacy of love. 

Our conference facilities at Hope Springs Institute will give you comfort galore! 

It is an easy 4 hour drive from Cleveland (mostly on I-71), 2 hours from Columbus of Dayton abd 1.5 hours from Cincinnati.  The nearest airport is Cincinnati. Let us know if you are intersted in carpooling with other participants.

Modern facilities are set up for double and triple occupancy.  Because our group has the entire property for our use, we have beds for a maximum of 30 women.  Single rooms are limited to only THREE at this time.  If you register, it is best to plan for a room mate, but indicate your interest in the single.  These assingments will be made on a first come, first serve basis based on date of initial deposit.
