Likewise, humans also need their own form of re-wilding&mdash;a return to deeper connections with nature, creativity, and each other. The urgency to rebuild community and unity has never been greater. Amidst rising fear and division, humanity must reintegrate creativity, inclusive spirituality, and a deep connection to nature. This will be a space for humans to gather, nurtured by Nature, not doctrine. This gathering will not seek to restructure some new religious dogma; we want only to offer a time and place where all humans, regardless of religious beliefs, can gather to re-wild their spirits. By blending art with activism, we seek to advance justice, environmental stewardship, and social healing. We want attendees to sink their roots deep into Nature&rsquo;s soil, finding an ancient source of life to generate new and natural human connections between one another, between themselves and the Earth, and between themselves and the Life-Giver, the living Mystery that interlaces all reality. Through music, art, embodied practices, and sharing wisdom, we see Wild Roots as a catalyst for a more peaceful and connected world. We want to inspire wilder, more diverse spiritual habitats, creating a cycle of ongoing healing and growth!

The LandSky Lake is a United Methodist Camp &amp; Retreat center located in Windsor, NY. Nestled on the edge of the Catskill Mountains, Sky Lake&rsquo;s rustic charm and comfortable surroundings await your arrival. Retreat to a chair overlooking the picturesque lake or go for a leisurely stroll on one of the trails that meander through the bountiful forests with over 900-acres of woods, fields, and water are yours to explore. Our year-round facilities offer the perfect setting for a retreat away from the distractions and demands of everyday life. Sky Lake is an alcohol-free facility and has limited Wi-Fi. Due to the altitude and the lake, Sky Lake may be 10 degrees cooler than the surrounding area.&nbsp; LodgingUnderwood Lodge offers hotel-style accommodations in a serene, wooded setting.
