Yoga and Meditation Stress Reduction Weekend

Open your heart, relax your body and unwind!

This weekend is relaxing, rejuvenating, educational, and a getaway into the arms of nature where you can move, breathe and just be. It is an opportunity to reflect and connect your body, mind and spirit through different practices.

Relax with the combination of gentle Yoga, mindful movement and other movement forms, hiking forest energy, stillness of meditation practices, and free time to relax or head to the beach. Time in nature soothes your soul! Exploring forest trails renews your vitality. Fresh air and peaceful surroundings. Enjoy bonfires, forest walks, new friends and create sacred memories.

Restore physical and emotional well being

Learn basic meditation techniques to calm your body, mind and spirit to help restore physical and emotional well being. Who doesn’t need more of that? Within the first two minutes of meditating, even for the very first time, your whole being shifts into a more healing, restful state.

Anyone can attend this retreat! No experience in yoga or meditation is necessary. In fact, this is the perfect retreat if you are looking to explore new ways of being in the world or simply want a restful weekend away. Make this weekend what you need – everything is optional!
