Eden - Vibrational Acoustics Tent
A sanctuary within the flow of Sauna Synergy—a space where time slows, breath deepens, and the body softens into pure presence. Step inside the warmth of this bell tent, where frequency-based vibro-acoustic furniture, gentle sound journeys, and the simple act of stillness invite you to reset.
Here, you can disengage from the movement and merge with the moment.
Sip warm tea, sink into resonance, or simply rest.
Whether you stay for a few minutes or an hour, Eden holds you—a refuge of sound, sensation, and peace, waiting for you to arrive.

About the Workshop:
Reclaim your ancient lineage of plant spirit communication and give voice to the forgotten or misunderstood medicine of poisonous plants. Learn about lore and explore universal themes and symbology to develop intuition and promote shadow integration. Participate in a guided meditative shamanic plant spirit journey inside the sauna. Optional plant essence will be available to take internally. **No poisonous plant matter or constituent will be ingested or utilized in any way.
**This class is free to attend but registration is required as space is limited**
A 90-minute workshop
In this immersive experience, we explore Feminine ReWilding as a return to instinct, intuition, and unfiltered expression. ReWilding is the process of softening the layers of conditioning that have taught the feminine body to stay quiet, contained, or pleasing—and restoring the body’s natural rhythms, truth, and aliveness.
Through movement, breath, raw primal sound & guided song, we awaken the living connection between the womb and the throat—the creative center and the voice. As the body reclaims safety and permission, sound is invited to rise organically from the womb, allowing expression to emerge without forcing, performing, or fixing.
This workshop offers a space to:
Reconnect with the wild, instinctual feminine body
Restore trust in intuition and sensation
Release stored emotion and inherited patterns of self-silencing
Experience the voice as an extension of embodied truth
Express creatively and freely through womb-led sound and song
No singing experience is needed. This is not about making “beautiful” sound, but about allowing what is true to be expressed.
Come as you are. Leave more rooted, more expressed, and more at home in your body.
**Women Only**
An educational workshop where you'll learn about the wellness benefits of mushrooms and herbs while tasting a variety of tea blends prepared by Nicole Hollander, forager, maker and teacher.You'll be guided through flavor notes, pairings, and simple methods for preparing them at home. You'll leave with clarity on which blends you enjoy most and how to integrate them into your daily routine.
Join us for a ride through the Kettle Moraine Forest. The ride will be 20-30 miles.
Description: In the midst of a rich, sensory weekend, this experiential workshop invites couples to slow down and tend the living flame of their relationship. Drawing from long-standing wisdom about what helps couples thrive, along with grounded, human practices, we’ll explore ways partnerships can feel more resilient, warm, and connected over time. Through gentle reflection, guided conversation, and shared moments of presence, you and your partner will reconnect with what brought you together and what helps you feel like a team. Expect a welcoming, low-pressure space that leaves you with simple ways to keep nourishing your bond long after the festival ends. Open to couples—new or seasoned—who are curious about deepening their “us.”

** This is a PARTNERS workshop and should be for couples**
In this session we will revisit our personal origin story with menstruation. Through guided ritual, storytelling and journaling we will find healing and reclamation for our inner maiden, offering her the acknowledgement and attention she might not have received at that pivotal time.
No matter what age or stage of womanhood you are at, this ceremony provides an opportunity for you to reprogram the negative beliefs around womanhood and menstruation that you absorbed around the time of your first menses. Let yourself be held and celebrated the way all maidens deserve to be. Reclaim the power and beauty of this sacred rite of passage.
Using felted wool, you will make a compacted soap bar with natural exfoliating properties.
Join Us for a Sound Healing Sauna Experience
Come and immerse yourself in soothing sound healing frequencies within the warmth of the sauna.
This one-hour workshop begins outside the sauna, where we’ll set our intentions and tune in to the resonant vibrations of the gong. Then, we’ll transition mindfully into the sauna, surrounded by the gentle sounds of singing bowls and other instruments designed to deepen your relaxation and support your intentions.
Breathe, unwind, and let the healing frequencies guide you into balance and peace.
Death and Chocolate is an invitation to restore Death to the sacred altar of Life. Through handcrafted, herbal-infused truffles, evocative prompts, and carefully held grief ritual, this workshop opens a tender and transformative space to meet mortality, loss, and the cycles that shape our lives.
Participants pair with different individuals to share truffles and reflection, exploring their personal edges and understandings around death. Ritual elements gently support emotional movement and connection, allowing grief to be witnessed, meaning to emerge, and the heart to soften in shared humanity.
Offered as a powerful complement to the sauna festival, Death and Chocolate adds depth to the broader arc of heat, water, and renewal. Inviting participants to slow down, open fully, and experience death not as an ending, but as a sacred force that clarifies life, deepens connection, and leaves participants feeling touched, expanded, and profoundly alive.
Sensual movement & inner exploration workshop designed to reconnect us to the wisdom of our subtle body, move through stagnancy & disconnection, and re-awaken to our wild and intuitive Essence as women.The intention of this practice is to help us remember the beauty of moving slowly and breathing deeply, as well as the power of listening to the body’s innate wisdom. This is a NON choreographed, gently guided exploration. We will lean into sensuality and intuition through gentle movement, soft touch, deep breathing and quiet listening.
A hands-on workshop to explore the art of using mushrooms and herbs to create nourishing medicinal teas. You'll learn how to pair botanicals and fungi for specific benefits, understand their healing properties, and practice the best methods for steeping, preparing, and extracting their medicine. You'll leave with a personalized tea blend crafted for exactly what your body is needing, or what you feel intuitively drawn to.
Yoni Self-Portraits is a two and half hour ceremonial art practice inviting women into a space of presence, embodiment, and creative remembrance. Guided with care and held in circle, this experience weaves together movement, breath, self-witnessing, and painting as a way to reconnect with the wisdom and beauty of the yoni space.
We begin by grounding together through gratitude, intention-setting, and gentle collective movement to awaken the body and soften emotional layers. Each participant is then invited to choose one color that represents her essence in this moment and create a lighter and darker value from it, forming a simple, symbolic palette.
In individual “nests,” with the option of mirror gazing, participants are guided to bring awareness to the breath and gently witness the yoni space. Using only their three tones, each woman creates a yoni self-portrait that blends anatomical awareness with energetic and emotional expression. Throughout the process, there are intentional pauses to document sensations, reflections, or insights as they arise.
The ceremony closes with a moment of integration, optional display of artwork for quiet admiration, and a return to circle for voluntary sharing and gratitude. No art experience is required. All practices are offered with consent and optionality.
This is not a therapeutic session or an art class focused on technique. It is a ritual of remembering — an invitation to slow down, witness, and honor the power and potential held within.
Side note: A heart centered infusion will be provided.
