Pause before the threshold of a new season.
A full-day retreat to rest and reclaim your freedom and joy.
Ever wonder what it would feel like to step away from all the ways you “normally” spend your day? Do you find yourself operating on autopilot more and more? Do you constantly crave more time and never find it?
“Bring your Exhaustion, Curiosity, Uncertainty, Wisdom, Fear, Courage, Power, Grief, Joy, and Restlessness. Bring all of you.” ~ Octavia Raheem
Spend time with other women seeking the same and practice a variety of ways to actively and passively rest your body and mind. Feel more present and aware. Enjoy the experience of connection and community. All important aspects to living a healthy and vibrant lifestyle.
Here’s a snapshot of how we will enjoy our day together. Tea, snacks, lunch and journals are included.
Arrive and settle in between 8:30-9:00am
There will be tea and refreshments as you get settled in to your rest nest with all the props provided.
Welcome each other into this sacred circle of women together.
Rest
Meditation to center and fully arrive.
Set an intention (Sankalpa) and learn why this supports your practice and your purpose in life.
Benefits of pranayama - breath work - throughout the day.
Restorative Yoga - settle into safe, supported and cozy restorative poses designed to allow your body to rest and let go of held tension. No yoga experience needed. Floor based and accessible for all.
Yoga Nidra - A meditation while you lay down and deeply rest. You remain slightly aware of my voice, while you travel through the physical and emotional layers (koshas) of the body, pointing you more and more towards your true, most authentic self.
When you take the time to rest, you awaken with more clarity and focus.
Release
We’ll step outside to mindfully walk in nature on the beautiful and sacred grounds of Alnoba.
Embody the healing benefits of nature’s medicine without any distractions.
Optional time for journaling on your own in nature (weather permitting) to reflect.
Lunch together or solo - either inside or outside (weather permitting).
Rise
Creative project - crafting a personal flower crown to celebrate the season and to remember the queen that you are.
Closing rest practice (more yoga Nidra) for renewal as you rise back into your life more present and aware to what matters to you most.
Reflections and sharing time - optional.
You’ll leave feeling more grounded and have the capacity to step back into all that is waiting for you with a sense of patience, resilience and ease.
This is how you want to show up in the world; rested and vibrant with a deep sense of awareness for yourself and others.
