Embrace abundance in your mind, heart, and life, as we journey from the Fall Equinox and New Moon into the harvest time! Just as the Earth requires a shifting of weather with each season, so too do we, its earthly inhabitants. A mindset metamorphosis is ready to emerge, and the alchemical practices of yoga can help guide you in a powerful repositioning to awaken the inner genius of your being. In this embodied yoga retreat you’ll discover the key components needed to renew your vitality and unlock the abundance codes within you.

Together we’ll explore the transformational practices of…

  • asana (physical postures),
  • pranayama (breathing techniques)
  • mantra (healing sound vibration)
  • mudra (energy seals created by the hands)
  • meditation (expanded states of awareness)
  • mythopoetic soul journeys (myths, legends, and lore)
  • dream temple guidance
  • shadow sessions

Throughout the weekend, there will be four unique alchemical sessions and a bonus fireside ritual. All sessions will incorporate themes related to vitality, abundance, and breakthrough energies as well as asana, pranayama, mantra, mudra, meditation, and soul reflection. Our hope and intention for you is to leave refreshed, connected to self, and transformed for the new season. Join us!
