Day Retreat


Restore balance

 one sense at a time


Yin Yoga, Creative Mindfulness Practice &
Sound Bath


Intentionally engaging with each of our senses can have a remarkable effect on our mental and physical well-being.


By consciously focusing on our sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste, and proprioception, we not only rediscover appreciation for our amazing bodies, but also bring about changes in our neurobiology. This can lead to cellular changes, recalibrated nervous systems, and rewiring of pathways in the brain, resulting in reduced negative mental chatter and a greater sense of presence and joy.
