Retreat & Meditation Center at Smiling Frog Farm

Retreat & Meditation Center at Smiling Frog Farm Retreat & Meditation Center at Smiling Frog Farm is a 22 acre sanctuary in West Central Illinois. It Classes, events, retreats & more. All are welcome.

The Retreat Center is a vision of Julie Haugland who wants to share her sanctuary with others who see the beauty in it and need a place to explore, get away for a bit and commune with nature and other like-minded souls. We have 22 acres that one can hike, meditation areas, classroom/meeting space, gardens, pasture, woods, friendly farm animals, and more. We focus on topics that apply to the human

condition, whether male or female...authenticity, fear, joy, gratitude, self doubt, laughter, powerlessness, self-compassion, etc. Also available for rental to groups to hold their own retreats. We offer a dogma-free, non-religious, unity consciousness approach to spirituality & metaphysics. If you noticed, our FB page is as this is our focus. Being authentic is the equivalent of being the best version of you. It takes courage to explore what that means—and then to make the commitment of time & energy to work toward it. A lot of us have self-limiting beliefs & fears about what we are capable of becoming. The Retreat Center is all about being in pursuit of your authentic self. Living authentically offers several benefits, including respect from others, the ability to realize your true potential, along with happiness and well-being. Join us as we offer a variety of experiences, modalities, and classes to do just that…pursue our authenticity. To explore how we can start living from a place of deep meaning. To tap into our highest selves so we can experience more joy and peace in our daily lives. We celebrate all. Please think about joining us. You will be pleasantly surprised. If you are interested, you can like our page and share with those who may be interested.

So, if you know me you know I am always placing little patches on people. You know why? Because they work and they help and I want to help others feel better and not suffer! I use these daily. There is a large variety of patches at Readings, Reiki and Gems in Galesburg. They are $3 each there and its a great way to experiment and sample to see if they work for you. They help with sleep, pain, stress, focus, balance/mobility, etc.

If you want to buy in quantity, use my link to get 25% off first order smilingfrog@superpatch.com/" rel="ugc" target="_blank">https://smilingfrog@superpatch.com/ You can purchase in packs of 4 or 28.

These really work! My 88 year old father was very surprised that they helped his knee pain. They help me sleep soundly, focus at work and keep me from getting sick. These work based on frequency, no ingredients, no drugs. Allergy-free. You can read all about them on the website, just click the link above.

Sharing unites us…

When we share something (consciously or unconsciously) that has given us awe and clarity, we often help others without knowing.

The tricky part is the timing – meaning:
Holding back judgment on our experience and letting it enter our body/mind and spirit so we have a better understanding before we make it a story.

It’s a call to reflect and refine - it’s personal.
But after it has hugged you, made its mark, and whether we completely understand or not… it’s true- awe changes us.

Sharing unites us.
Stories are cathartic.

An update for those who have been wondering what the schedule is this year and why they have not seen any postings. I was working a very stressful job that got very complicated emotionally when my boss passed away unexpectedly and was replaced with a not-very-nice person who enjoys playing games. I managed thru it for over a year, but at a cost to my physical and mental health. All the white still working on my spiritual journey.

This past January, I took a position for a very organized and well-run company, NCCHC.org out of Chicago (I can work remotely, yes) and have been engrossed in my new role as fundraising manager for the NCCHCFoundation.org. Look it up if you are so moved, its a very worthwhile organization that is focused on ensuring quality health care in correctional facilities. I am super happy to be part of it and elated to be working with a firm who cares about equity & humanity and correcting major societal issues.

At the same time, I discovered the answer to a bunch of chronic pain and health issues that have been bothering me for years. I recently had parathyroid & thyroid surgery and feel so much better than I have in a decade!

In addition, three years ago marked a profound shift in my life's narrative with the birth of my granddaughter. She brought with her a radiant light, pure delight, and endless laughter. My devotion to her includes treasuring every moment I can, witnessing her growth, and showering her with boundless love, which means time away from the farm.

Soul work, energy healing, and all things metaphysical hold a special place in my heart, and I remain dedicated to providing captivating opportunities at the farm for those seeking personal growth and exploration. So, while there might be fewer events and no camping, the quality and depth of the experiences offered will continue to be enriching and engaging for all who participate.

I will be creating a schedule for classes. Stay tuned....by the way, the flower gardens are looking great already.

So, it's that time of year when I need to start planning a line up of activities for the season. If you have a request f...

So, it's that time of year when I need to start planning a line up of activities for the season. If you have a request for a class/group/craft night, etc., please comment. If you have something you would like to present, comment and/or send me a message. Let's get the 2024 calendar planned! Given the warm weather trend, we may be able to open earlier this year. Although, please note, I am occupied with personal health and work duties until end of April.

I love this.
