Meet Eden Bauer
Hi there! I'm Eden. I am a passionate nature lover, massage and reiki practitioner, yoga instructor, vibrational sound therapist, and dedicated postpartum doula. Throughout my personal healing journey I have had the opportunity to work with practitioners who completely changed the way I view medicine and our capacities to come back into balance. I am amazed by the power of subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) energy work that reiki, sound therapy and yoga can provide. My goal is to bring these therapies to my clients in a way that is tailored to each of their individual needs. ​
My ideal clients are diverse, open to body and energy work and ready to put into practice the multiple therapies and tools I offer. Open-mindedness and flexibility allow these modalities to go a long way. I respect the sovereignty of every being and truly believe the most powerful work is done when you are taking as active a roll in your healing as the practitioner you are working with.
​
I understand, and have firsthand experienced, that we are much more than physical beings. We are mental, emotional and spiritual beings as well. My work focuses on bringing each of these aspects of ourselves into harmony. I work to identify your imbalances and blockages and gently bring you back to your center, holistically. No two humans are alike, so no two sessions are alike. As you evolve, so will our sessions together. Getting to a better place is possible, and it is what you deserve.
​
I wish you informed, empowered and aligned decisions for your health, always.
~ Eden

Softening Into Sisterhood
Healing the Sister Wound on the Shores of Lake Superior
​
July 17th – 20th, 2026 · Wild Rice Retreat
This retreat is not something we’ve thrown together.
​
It is a deeply intentional container that Anna and Eden have co-created with the belief that a single weekend, when held with care, has the power to shift how you move through your life.
​
Because of that, who is in the room matters.
​
Not in terms of experience, background, or having it all figured out, but in terms of willingness.
​
Willingness to be open.
Willingness to be seen.
Willingness to gently step beyond your comfort zone.
​
The application is simply a way for us to intentionally curate a group of women who are aligned in coherence, readiness and sovereignty. ​
What is the Sister Wound?
What Softening Into Sisterhood will FEEL like...
​​​​​​​​​​​​Treehaus – Private Suite
​
If having your own space to land feels important, this is for you.
​
You’ll have your own private bedroom within one of the Treehauses, along with your own ensuite bathroom. Each Treehaus also has a shared living room, kitchen, and cozy common spaces that you’ll share with a few other women in the retreat.
​​
Treehaus – Shared Suite
​
This option is for you if you’re open to a snuggly sleepover vibe.
You’ll share a queen bed in a private Treehaus bedroom, either with a friend you come with or someone you’ll be thoughtfully paired with. You’ll also have your own ensuite bathroom, plus access to the shared living spaces within the Treehaus.
​
It’s cozy, intimate, and honestly… such a beautiful way to deepen connection over the weekend.
​​
​​​​​
Rice Pod Twin – Shared Suite
​
The RicePods are little standalone cabins tucked into the landscape, and they feel extra peaceful.
​
In this option, you’ll share a RicePod with one other woman, but you’ll each have your own twin bed. You’ll also have a private bathroom and a small kitchenette, all within your own private structure.
​
This is a great option if you want your own bed and a bit more privacy, while still being in it with someone else.
Accommodations
At Wild Rice Retreat, each meal is a ritual in itself—thoughtfully prepared with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients that honor both body and land. The cuisine is vibrant, deeply nourishing, and designed to support your energy throughout the retreat. Every plate feels like an offering: beautiful, intentional, and rooted in care. You’ll be invited to slow down, savor, and reconnect with the simple pleasure of being fully nourished. This is food that sustains not only the body, but the entire experience.
The sauna offers a quiet, grounding space to soften, release, and return to your body. Surrounded by natural beauty, the warmth invites deep relaxation while supporting detoxification and nervous system regulation. This is where heat, breath, and stillness come together—creating space for both physical and emotional release. You’ll be gently guided through a restorative sauna ritual designed to leave you feeling clear, open, and deeply held. It is both invigorating and deeply soothing, a true sanctuary within the retreat.
Our yoga and workshop space is bathed in natural light, with expansive windows overlooking the vast, steady waters of Lake Superior. This serene, open environment creates a sense of spaciousness—both within the body and the mind. It is here that we gather for movement, ceremony, and honest conversation, held in a container that feels both elevated and deeply grounded. The presence of the lake offers a quiet reminder of depth, rhythm, and flow. This space becomes a mirror for the work we do together: open, expansive, and rooted in nature.
You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
If you feel the pull, trust it.
This space was created for you.

Melanie Meyer
"Eden facilitates an incredibly safe and supportive space for every individual she works with. I’ve had the opportunity to experience her healing and loving touch through Reiki, her intuitive abilities through sound healing, and her empowering and heart warming New Moon Circles. I would recommend her group and individual offerings to my closest friends, knowing they would be in the hands of someone who truly cares about their health
and healing."
Evelina Lechter
"This is the second retreat I attended with Anna and there’s a reason I keep coming back. She has a magical way of connecting people and building a transformative safe space for everyone. Everything felt so intentional from the yoga classes to the conversations to the food. I left the retreat feeling lighter, reignited and more connected to myself — it was truly a life changing experience!"

Gina Horkey
"Eden is incredibly gifted — I had the pleasure of receiving a massage from her and participating in her yoga sessions during a recent retreat, and she was phenomenal at both. Her massage was one of the best I’ve ever had — deeply restorative and intuitive, with just the right pressure and attention to areas that needed it most. Her yoga classes were equally amazing — grounding, accessible, and perfectly paced for the group. You can tell Eden truly cares about creating a healing, supportive experience for everyone she works with. "
