Weekend retreat
Relax and Recharge in nature
A Weekend RetreatJune 23-25 2023
Imagine a weekend devoted to practicing yoga, relaxation, chant, and meditation to calm the mind and replenish your body and spirit.
This is also an opportunity to treat yourself on all levels by offering your body healthy, organic, and vegetarian meals from local farmers.
You could also swim in the natural pool or river, take a meditative walk through the nature that surrounds the retreat center, get a great massage, relax in the hammam, or read the book that has been waiting for you.
Take time to recharge your batteries, help your body heal, and bring joy to your mind, body, and soul.
