After the darkness and chill of winter, spring renews us, brings us hope, and opens us up again to life. We stretch and release the stiffness and constriction of wintertime, like sprouts breaking out of an acorn, and allow ourselves to unfold.
This year, our spring retreat is in the middle of May – the high time of flowers blossoming. Greenery is all around and the Earth feels alive and full of new possibilities. It’s time to drink that in deeply.
Spend a day attuning to the full opening of your Divine Being. Allow yourself to release what weighs on you to the Earth, shake off the struggle, and unfold like leaves and flowers into more of who you truly are.
We’ll spend the day at Ananda Valley Farm, delighting in the energy of springtime, exploring the creeks, clouds, newly blooming plants, and soaring hawks above us. Our day always includes time in solitude as well as in groups, with soulful community & connection.
You’ll also be nourished with time to relax and a delicious vegetarian lunch.
This year’s retreat is open to all genders – bring your friends, partners, family (adults 18+), or make new friends!
Together, we’ll share in practices to open to spring’s inner and outer light:
- Yoga
- Meditation & Presence/Mindfulness
- Ecotherapy – mindful, healing, and sacred connection to nature
- Small and Large Group Activities
- Light Hiking
- Supportive, Sacred Community
- Includes a gourmet vegetarian lunch!
Ananda Valley Farm is a secluded, idyllic farm in Half Moon Bay, with a year-round creek, pond, flowers, and hiking trails. This special place facilitates a deep connection to each other, the natural world, and Spirit, and nourishes your soul.
Limited partial scholarships are available for BIPOC and those needing financial assistance, and you may also donate to the scholarship fund to support them.
Join us for a day of renewal, inspiration, and community, unfolding into your True Self!
