About the Retreat
This year we are incorporating some of the restorative offerings of our Body Mind Restoration Retreats that we hold in the summer and fall. The buffet meals will be organic, simple and delicious. All meals will offer enough variety to satisfy gluten free, vegan, dairy and egg diets. There will be a daily raw selection of fruit, morning shake, salad, nuts, seeds, energy soup (blended greens, sprouts and other raw goodies) and rejuvelac an enzyme rich fermented drink. And, look forward to David's homemade yogurt and baked goods!

Activities
All group activities are in silence and classes are optional.
  • Morning and evening meditation followed by a talk
  • Daily yoga class
  • Daily private, pond side, wood fired sauna
  • Scheduled private time in the studio for individual practices
  • Miles of walking trails on the sixty-acre facility bordering a one thousand acre state forest
  • Daily whirling class
  • Because all rooms are private, there is limited space so please reserve early
