We are delighted to welcome you to ReNEW 1.0 Elements & Senses, hosted at Usona Institute in Madison, WI, an immersive program dedicated to exploring the profound connection between the elements, our senses, and our well-being. This unique event, themed “Elements and Senses," is designed to provide you with a transformative experience that fosters professional development, renewal, and connection.

The goals for this program are twofold: to help you renew yourself by strengthening your connections to the elements, to yourself, and to others, and to expand your understanding of complementary chemicals that can mitigate the effects of trauma. Through a carefully curated agenda, we hope to provide you with the knowledge, experiences, and community support that will enrich your personal journey and professional practice.

We are honored to be joined by a distinguished team of educators and facilitators and Usona team members, who will lead our program sessions. From hydrotherapy spa services to experiential music and light, holotropic breathwork to discussions on trauma intelligence, each activity is designed to deepen your connection to the elements and enhance your sensory experiences.

As part of this enrichment program, we also emphasize the importance of experiential learning in your healing journey. You will have the opportunity to learn from experts about the latest research and practices in well-being and trauma mitigation.

We encourage you to take full advantage of the opportunities for individual reflection and community engagement throughout the program. Whether it’s during our fireside conversations, nature walks, or hydrotherapy sessions, we hope you find moments of peace, insight, and inspiration.
