Discover the Sacred Energy of Bowen Island 🌿
Bowen Island has long been a place of peace, reflection, and deep natural connection. Located just a short ferry ride from Vancouver, this lush island was originally stewarded by the Squamish Nation, whose ancestors viewed the land, forests, and waters as sacred—alive with spirit and meaning. Their presence and wisdom still echo through the trees and shorelines.
Nectar Yoga, nestled in the heart of the island, sits on land rich in healing energy. It’s more than just a retreat space—it’s a portal to deeper connection. Surrounded by alder forests, known for their cleansing and regenerative energy, the land itself supports growth, release, and renewal.
The alder tree is a symbol of protection and guidance in many Indigenous and Celtic traditions. These trees grow quickly after disruption—like fire or clear-cutting—reminding us of nature’s resilience and our own ability to rise again.
Being on sacred land shifts something in us. It reconnects us to something ancient—our own roots, the rhythm of the Earth, and the lineage of those who came before us. In a world that often pulls us outward, stepping onto a land like this calls us back inward.
Our day retreat this August 3rd 2025 is a chance to align, release, and remember—held by nature, community, and intention.
