Slow Down, Connect, Renew
January 22 - 24, 2021
Be – and yet know the great void where all things begin, the infinite source of your own most intense vibration, so that, this once, you may give it your perfect assent.
(Rainer Maria Rilke)
Winter is the perfect time to slow down, tend to the inner garden of the soul, set new intentions, and reclaim our capacity for wonder and joy. As the ground rests and the natural world is enveloped in delicious quietness, so the grounds of our being – our body and soul – are given time and space in which to be replenished and continue to grow.
This retreat is designed to help us reap winter’s quiet and often overlooked rewards; refill our emotional and physical reservoirs; and connect to the aliveness and radiance within us.
Overall this winter retreat will be an invitation to connect with nature and its many wonders; to nurture and fully inhabit our embodied selves; and to bring the qualities of inner stillness, calm attention, and loving kindness we experience on the mat into all spheres of our lives.
