As the holiday season approaches, take a moment to slow down, reconnect, and recharge at our day-long mindfulness retreat. Join us on December 7th for a day devoted to self-care, renewal, and grounding in the beauty of mindfulness practices. Set in a serene, welcoming environment, this retreat offers the perfect space to breathe deeply and prepare for the season ahead.
Throughout the day, you'll be guided through mindfulness practices designed to help you pause, reflect, and cultivate inner calm. We'll share two nourishing, soul-warming meals together, allowing you to pause and savor each bite without the holiday rush. If the weather is kind, we’ll close the day gathered around a cozy bonfire—a simple, magical way to unwind and release any lingering stress into the night sky.
Come soak in the warmth, connect with community, and simply be. This retreat offers a chance to quiet your mind and refuel your spirit, preparing you to greet the holiday season with calm and clarity.
Give yourself this gift of peace and presence before the holiday hustle begins. By taking time to fill your own cup, you’ll have more to share with those around you in the weeks to come.
This retreat is open to the general public with any level of experience with practicing meditation. People of all faiths, genders, race, economic status and more are welcome (children below the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult).
