Rooted in Renewal
November 13-15, 2026
Gillespie House Inn, Parrsboro, NS
Ground your Roots. Renew your Energy.
A cozy winter retreat designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and step into the season ahead feeling grounded, refreshed, and supported.
What Makes This
Retreat Different?
Rooted in Renewal will be hosted by The Jubilant Journal, four Reiki Masters who each bring their own unique modality, experience, and way of holding space.
Together, we create a grounded and nurturing environment designed to support women wherever they are on their personal journey.
This isn’t about having it all figured out or arriving as a polished of yourself. It’s about being met where you are, with practices and experiences that allow you to take what you need, in your own way and in your own time.
Through guided reflection, journaling, mindful movement, Reiki, meaningful conversation, and shared moments of connection, we create space to pause, soften, and replenish your energy before the busy winter season arrives.
There is no pressure to share beyond your comfort, to participate in any particular way, or to be anything other than yourself. Just a welcoming and supportive space to reflect, connect, and be alongside other women who are choosing to make themselves a priority.
Leave feeling centred, grounded, and renewed for the season ahead.
Your Retreat
Experience
Over the course of the weekend, you’ll enjoy a thoughtfully curated blend of rest, connection, and wellness, including:
A two-night stay in a private room with ensuite

Guided journaling and reflection experiences
Meditation, sound healing, and mindful movement practices
Opportunities for meaningful conversation and connection

Time to unwind, recharge, and simply be
Alongside the scheduled experiences, there is also spaciousness built into the weekend — time to enjoy a quiet morning with tea, rest in nature, journal in peaceful surroundings, or simply take a break from the pace of everyday life.
