Slow Down

Amid the fast pace of our everyday lives, we hear a call for deep rest. Just as night follows day and summer fades into fall, our bodies are called into retreat to recover from the depth of life and to bring balance to the rush of experience.

On this retreat, you will ease into a pace of rest and relaxation with gentle flows, easeful days, and a general pace of life that matches exactly what the body needs to escape the cycle of day-to-day stressors. As your nervous system calms, you’ll feel a boost in your immune system and leave feeling a soft glow from within.

Our morning sessions will start with meditation and pranayama to focus our minds. We will take that focus into a gentle flow, followed by yin and restorative poses. In these sessions, there will be little or no vinyasas (moving from high plank to low plank to upward-facing dog), making this retreat very suitable for those with wrist, elbow, or shoulder injuries.

The afternoon sessions will include restorative yoga, yoga nidra (guided meditation while laying down), mantra singing, and conversations about the practical application of yoga philosophy for daily life circumstances.
