June 2018 Alaska Retreat

Tapping Your Source
a 2018 Summer Solstice Retreat in Alaska

Come home to your deepest yes to life when contemplation, creativity, and the wild beauty of Alaska coalesce June 22-24, 2018, during an extraordinary retreat alongside the Kenai River.

Do you desire something more, a deeper yes and vitalness to emerge in your lived experience and unfolding future? Do you yearn for rest, healing, and time to listen to the inner whisperings within your heart, mind, and soul?

At our core, every one of us is unique and distinct, with emergent possibilities and pulsing desires. To consciously carve time from your everyday life in order to unplug and tap into your source of imagination and essence is vital.

Whether you are new to a spiritual practice, or seeking deeper awakening and integration of your values, everyone is welcome.

Gift yourself with forty-four deliberate hours—an investment in you. You will unplug, pause, become replenished and renewed. Trust that inspiration and delight will be revealed when you give yourself permission to risk, explore depth, and your own capacity to be fully alive.

About the lodge, and Pegge, your master retreat guide

Pegge Erkeneff is known to most Alaskans as the voice of the Kenai Peninsula school district, however, for decades, she’s led retreats, leadership programs, taught in a spiritual direction program, is an editor and writer for Spiritual Directors International, a spiritual guide, and author of Your Spiritual Garden: Tending to the Presence of God—a six week daily life retreat; God Any Time, Any Place: The Many Ways College Students Pray; and several Chicken Soup stories. Her blog at www.eNewFields.com explores healing and the river of delight that flows when we show up and are present to here and now.

In 2007 she moved to the wild landscape of Alaska where the seasons, solitude, mighty Kenai River, shorelines of Cook Inlet, and wildlife offered her a sturdy outer landscape to aid her healing after the unexpected death of her teenage son, and the ending of a 17-year marriage. She knows by experience that loss, grief, and transformational healing are part of living. So too is joy, simplicity, and valuing the beauty in everyday ordinary life. No stranger to a demanding public life, creative impulses and desires, and stewardship with service to causes and organizations that grab her attention, Pegge cultivates a calm, radiant, compassionate presence, in love with the art of what’s possible and new fields of discovery.

Join her, and others who will tap the vital source of life, for a summer solstice weekend that will touch your depths. Begin or deepen the journey home to the best you. Touch your essence, identify and celebrate what matters most to you. Tend to what sparks joy and understand the value of your yes and no. Be kind and give yourself permission to believe in possibility and flow like a river—with brave, astonishing you.
