A WINTER RETREAT
DECEMBER 5-7, 2025
JOIN US IN THE COASTAL REDWOODS OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
Come on a 3-day retreat to soften, melt, and slow down…
Experience inner stillness and outer silence
As the season turns to more darkness and cold, our bodies naturally long to retreat inward. December is a time to reflect on what has transpired in the year and process all of the emotions and experiences that have come to pass. This retreat is designed for you to get quiet, to sit by the fire, drink some tea, let the mind settle, stop doing, and just lay down. Let yourself be silent and enjoy the gifts of stillness.
This program includes:
restorative yoga classes
sound healing
sitting meditation
silent movement
nature walk
journal time
Classes are for all levels, both beginners and seasoned practitioners. We invite you to go slowly with us.
IMMERSE YOURSELF IN BEAUTY AND GOOD COMPANY. THE HEART WILL SOFTEN. THE MIND BECOMES WIDE OPEN. COMPASSION AND JOY BECOME NATURAL.
