August 18 - 20
Self-Care with a community is even more impactful than doing it alone. When the heat of the summer has our energy fired up, there's nothing like a sweet retreat for a whole weekend to come back to yourself through intentional time to reflect, refresh, and restore.
The focus of this weekend getaway is rest. Throughout the retreat, many offerings are included. In addition to several Restorative Yoga practices, you’ll be able to enjoy fun slow flow classes, hiking, leisurely walking, delicious food, quiet time, reading, coloring, napping, and connecting with good humans. Participate in as little or as much as you wish. Massages are available as well for an additional cost.
Carve out time for yourself for whatever you need this weekend to be. You can be with people or you can retreat alone in peace. Activities are suitable for anyone, and no yoga or meditation experience is necessary. Let’s rest together!
