“Thank you so very much for a fun, relaxing & exercise filled weekend! Loved visiting with all of you & loved the most yummy food! Incredible break for the soul! Love to do it again.”
RETREATS & DATES LISTED BELOW
Our wellness journeys generally include breath-connected sacred yoga, meditation, prayer, hiking & healing, with the goal to break destructive patterns, heal, awaken, deepen our Divine bond, renew our mind, purify the heart, and clear the body-temple.
NOTE: We do NOT discriminate based on sex, race, age, etc. Some feel there are two sexes, and some feel there are many or non-gender. May we all get along! Everyone is free to honor pronoun and identity requests or not, according to their own truth. There are now reportedly 82 pronouns and rising; remembering each other’s names is hard enough on retreat! We strive to create a non-divisive, focused and healing environment.
