Finding Balance is about finding the middle ground between effort and ease. It's about listening to our needs and deciding it is necessary to take a moment, or a day, to reflect and replenish so we can meet the challenges we face in our daily lives.

This retreat is about YOU and what YOU need to find that balance.

This opportunity will allow you to step out of your usual responsibilities so you can relax. Through gentle movement, a nourishing meal, time outdoors and a guided mindfulness practice, you will leave feeling renewed!

What's Included:
* A morning yoga class (beginners welcome)
* A full homemade meal with a guided Eating Awareness Practice
* Plenty of time to relax outdoors - enjoy a swim in the pool or a stroll in nature
* A deeply restorative and restful guided meditation, also known as Yoga Nidra

Bring your bathing suit, the book or podcast you've been meaning to get to, and maybe your journal, and leave behind your to do list and stressors.

We will be available to chat on well-being subjects like Intuitive Eating, sleep, nervous system regulation, self-compassion, and more, if guidance on your path is what you desire.

Let this day be about you and fulfilling your needs.
