Join us for the Spring Goddess Yoga and Meditation Retreat!
You deserve a weekend that is all about you. Spring is the perfect time to replenish your body, relax your mind and heal your soul.
Imagine a weekend getaway that includes time to heal yourself with yoga practices that strengthen your body and allow for the release of physical and emotional tension built up from an unbelievable year.
What would it be like to participate in a structured practice of meditation and reflection so you can truly quiet the mind, check in with yourself, and reconnect with what’s important to you and what you want in your life? If there was ever a time for recommitting to new habits and a new way of living, it is NOW.
Each day there will be experiences that explore new terrain and allow you to affirm the life you want, expand your horizons and find the edges of your comfort zone leading to even greater growth from this ancient practice.
You will also have opportunities to learn about holistic lifestyle approaches such as acupuncture and essential oils providing an expanded healing experience.
There will be plenty of opportunity for you to explore on your own or to connect with others through sharing and meaningful conversations allowing you to make real and lasting connections with other people, something most of us are starving for right now.
