Why Nurture ?
Cape Breton and worldwide guests are still recovering from Covid losses and more recently from Hurricane Fiona.
Self-care is a radical act. It's not obvious or easy. For those of us who provide services--whether as a parent, student, worker or for something you believe in--it's often a challenge to take time for yourself. Reminds me of instructions on an airplane to get your oxygen mask before helping others. Otherwise, you may not be helpful at all.
Do you get to the point where it's time to take a deep breadth, and stop doing for others? Some time to recover from the ongoing stress of covid, hurricane Fiona or just the day to day.
A member of our staff identifies the "Nurture Yourself" as the 3 R's
….Reconnect , Relax & Recharge....
Sometimes it takes folks a few hours to recover and arrive here fully and to relax.
It hard to describe the nurture part but you'll feel it and we will share various ways to develop nurturing patterns for ourselves and others.

In Nature
Cabot Shores Wilderness area along Indian Brook and the Atlantic and Church Pond is a very special and powerful place, as you can see on the ground and from the air
You may see eagles flying overhead or sitting on trees
along Eagle Feather Beach.....
A film crew (CoraxFilms) spent time on Eagle Feather Beach and captured shots of eagles feeding right after Hurricane Fiona.
or Walk along paths at Cabot Shores and see a sunrise just above the beach
and Stargaze from the privacy of a cozy hot tub near your yurt with forest views.
A hot tub is a large tub full of water used for hydrotherapy, relaxation or pleasure. Some have powerful jets for massage purposes. Hot tubs are sometimes also known as "spas" or by the trade name Jacuzzi, while Cabot Shores features some hot tubs made of cedar as well as traditonal hot tubs with jets depending on your lodging.
Adventures (Mild to Wild)
- Stay in a Mongolian yurt
What’s a yurt (or ger)?
A yurt or ger is the home of the Mongolian nomads. Its history dates back thousands of years. Our beautiful yurts are sustainable, leaving no footprint and comprise organic material like felt insulation and horse hair ropes. - From Groovy Yurts
...Hike the Red Island Trail along the Bearchois River, St. Ann's Bay & Macdonald Pond
...Canoe or kayak n or SUP along Church Pond or up Indian Brook
Offerings (Is it about Being or Doing?)
How can you do so much in one weekend? Really it's a bit of choosing what you'd like to attend that speaks to you. There are definite times and classes but it isn't structured like school.
There is a structure for you if you wish one and you can also be spontaneous, just being here and making sure you get some time to relax and recharge.
It is really about being fully here and also having fun.
You'll find your own path.
