Breath Awareness and Generative Practices with Kate Sheehy


  • Red Clover Ranch 44727 County Rd X Soldiers Grove, WI 54655 (map)

Breath is more than a tool for relaxation—it’s a gateway to expansion. By shifting our habitual breath patterns, we can access altered states of consciousness, awaken creativity, and step into a greater sense of presence.

A Generative Practice is any intentional activity that helps us tap into the unknown that allows new ways of thinking, feeling and expressing ourselves to emerge.

Through breathwork, movement, and play, we will break free from old patterns and step into new possibilities. We’ll explore the full spectrum of experience—moving through discomfort as a pathway to pleasure, deep connection, and embodied transformation.

Over the course of the retreat, we will experience:

  • Immersive Breathwork Sessions–hands-on bodywork to expand breath capacity and shift energy

  • Morning Somatic Practice–self-massage, yoga and functional movement to awaken the body

  • Nourishment from the land–seasonal, locally sourced meals crafted by Red-Clover’s visionary chef, Dani Lind

  • Science & Integration–discussions on breath awareness, nervous system function, intention-setting and real-life practice

  • Creativity and Play–group energy, witnessing and shared exploration

  • Group vocalization and Choral Explorations–no vocal talent required!

  • Time for Reflection & Self Expression–writing nooks, art materials, cycling,  nature hikes and swimming holes

  • Dance Party!--because movement is medicine

The Driftless Region of Wisconsin is unlike any other landscape in the Midwest. This region was never flattened by glaciers, leaving behind rolling hills, deep valleys, limestone bluffs and winding spring-fed rivers. Red Clover Ranch rests in the heart of this resilient place of rugged beauty and quiet magic–an ideal setting for rest, renewal and creative exploration. 

Join us for a weekend of breath, creativity, and play—a space to move beyond the ordinary and step into a more expansive, vibrant version of yourself.
