Sacred Harvest
A Weekend of Nourishment, Renewal and Remembering
As the leaves turn and the season of harvest arrives, we are invited to gather not only what we’ve grown, but who we’ve become.
Sacred Harvest is a deeply nourishing weekend retreat for women seeking rest, renewal, and remembrance. Through sacred ritual, embodied practices, healing, and connection, we create space to honour the wisdom within, release what is ready to fall away, and return home to ourselves.
This is a retreat for the woman ready to soften, rise, and remember her sacred truth.
*Booking will occur on The Marmalade Motel's Website.
The Sacred Harvest is an intimate autumn retreat designed for women who are ready to slow down, soften, and return to themselves. Set against the wild, restorative beauty of Nova Scotia’s Eastern Shore and hosted at the serene The Marmalade Motel, this immersive weekend invites you into a sacred pause. One where the rhythm of the ocean, the crisp autumn air, and the stillness of nature become part of your healing.
Throughout the weekend, you will be guided through soul-nourishing workshops, ritual, movement, creativity and reflection. All intentionally designed to help you release what no longer serves, reconnect with your body, and remember the wisdom you carry within. This is a space to gather the lessons, grief, growth, and beauty of your life’s journey and honour the woman you are becoming.
With ocean views, cozy accommodations, nourishing meals, sacred sisterhood, and spacious moments for rest and integration, Sacred Harvest offers more than a retreat, it is an invitation to come home to yourself. To be held by the land, the sea, and a circle of women walking beside you. To harvest the parts of yourself that are ready to rise.

3:30pm - The Stories We Carry
A guided journey through the defining moments, identities, and roles that have shaped your life; offering space to honour what has been while gently exploring what is ready to change. Through timeline reflection, identity mapping, and inner child letter writing, participants are invited to reconnect with their essence beneath the stories and remember who they were before the world asked them to become someone else.
5pm - The Harvest of Her
A soulful exploration of what truly nourishes the many layers of the feminine; inviting participants to uncover the parts of themselves that are hungry for more attention, care, and expression. Through guided visualization and creative mixed-media art, women will connect with the future version of themselves who feels whole, grounded, and alive, creating a tangible reflection of the life they are ready to cultivate.
6:30pm - Community Supper
Sunset (approximately 8pm) - Sunset Ocean Release & Seed Blessing Ceremony
A sacred ritual of letting go and beginning again. Participants are invited to release the roles, expectations, and identities that no longer serve them into the healing waters with gratitude. Through reflection, release, and the symbolic blessing of seeds, each woman is guided to honour what has been while planting intention for the feminine qualities, boundaries, and growth she is ready to nurture in the season ahead.
8am - Community Breakfast
9am - Hatha Yoga: Receiving
10:15am - Cultivating a Nourished Life
A grounding workshop designed to help participants carry the wisdom of the weekend into everyday life with intention and clarity. Through practical tools and honest reflection, women will explore how to create sustainable rhythms, healthier boundaries, aligned relationships, and meaningful practices that support a life rooted in purpose, energy, and self-honouring.
11:15am Harvest Integration Circle & Closing Ceremony
The sacred final gathering where participants weave together the lessons, releases, and intentions of the weekend — reflecting on what has nourished them, what they are ready to let go of, and what they are committed to cultivating. Through shared witnessing, symbolic offerings, and a final blessing, each woman leaves with tangible reminders of her journey and a deeper trust in her own cycles of healing, growth, and becoming.
