In our culture, there’s a lot of stimulation (media, busyness) but not a lot of time to process all that arises in our everyday lives. And we aren’t really taught to express our emotions or even release energy in healthy ways. The result? A number of repressed, frustrated adults out there, who need to learn to express themselves. We’re a very polite society here in Canada! If you’re feeling the desire to connect with your primal self, and express your wild side, here are four amazing retreats coming up that will empower and liberate you:

And if you don’t want to travel but do desire to access and release emotions, frustrations, sexuality or desire, we’d highly recommend exploring embodiment practices like taking a jungle dance or kundalini dance class, doing a breathwork session to release stuck energy or screaming into your pillow! Not sure what you need right now? This Intuition Test is a helpful place to begin. —Monica Krake
