Multiple Dates | Starting at $154Nervous System Reset Retreat
A guided outdoor wellness retreat with meditation, sauna, cold immersion, and nature connection at Blackstrap Provincial Park.
What to Expect
What's IncludedThe Nervous System Reset Retreat is a three-hour guided experience designed to help you step away from constant stimulation and return to a steadier rhythm within yourself.
We begin by slowing down through guided meditation, breath awareness, and intention setting. From there, you will move between the warmth of a wood-fired sauna and the refreshing experience of a guided lake cold plunge.
Rather than forcing your body to relax, this retreat creates the supportive conditions for relaxation to unfold naturally. You will be encouraged to listen to your body, move at your own pace, and meet each experience with curiosity rather than pressure.
Whether you have been feeling mentally overloaded, physically depleted, emotionally full, or simply disconnected from yourself, this retreat offers space to breathe, soften, and reconnect with what feels steady beneath the noise.
❋ Guided Meditation
Settle your system, slow your thoughts, and reconnect with your inner steadiness.
❋ Guided Qigong
Qigong is a moving meditation that means “energy work”. This practice moves stagnant energy and balances your energy system.
❋ Sauna Therapy
Allow heat and stillness to soften tension, deepen your breath, and support full body relaxation.
❋ Progressed Moon Reading
Progressed Moon astrology reading to reflect on the emotional themes and inner shifts moving through your current season of life.
❋ Cold Plunge

Testimonial
“Back2Nature Wellness & Adventure is the ultimate self-care escape, offering immersive retreats that help you slow down and reconnect with both yourself and the outdoors. I recently joined their Nervous System Reset Retreat, and it was exactly what I didn’t know I needed. We began with a grounding meditation before heading into the sauna, complete with fun animal and nature-themed sauna caps (I proudly chose the seal). It was a cozy moment to connect, breathe, and unwind. Then came the cold plunge. We made our way to the lake, and yes, the water was very cold. But after a quick dip and a warm-up by the fire, I found myself easing into the rhythm: sauna, cold plunge, rest.
I arrived with a buzzing mind and a bit of nerves, but by the end of our third round, the sun was setting over Blackstrap Lake and everything felt calm and clear. On the drive home, my nervous system felt reset, and I truly felt ready for winter.”
