Join us for the 2025 Spirit of Activism Retreat, a transformative day of connection, reflection, and nature immersion designed for environmental activists and those seeking to deepen their connection to the natural world. Co-hosted by Patti Ragsdale of Botanical Belonging and Sami Aaron with The Resilient Activist, this retreat will take place at a serene forested location and offers a peaceful space to step away from the demands of daily life, slow down, and nurture your spirit.

Throughout the day, you’ll be guided through mindful practices that help you reconnect with yourself and the earth. 🌏The retreat will include a mix of activities such as guided walks through the woods, opportunities for solitude and contemplation, and engaging group discussions. These practices will support your journey toward emotional resilience, helping you process grief, stress, and eco-anxiety while gaining clarity and strength for continued action in the fight forGraphic showing "Spirit of Activism" and a picture of a cloud-covered prairie. environmental justice.
