Hey there, friend! Has life felt a little hectic and stressful lately? Do you feel like some days you are just rushing through life on auto-pilot feeling checked out? Are you ready for a break?
We are too! So come join us for our immersive full day Mindfulness Retreat to Recharge, Restore, and Reconnect your Mind, Body, and Soul. This is an opportunity to step away from your busy life for a day. To slow down and take a pause. TO BREATHE.
Mindfulness practices can help us to reduce anxiety, stress, and depression while invoking clarity and peace. They teach us to maintain a moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment through a nurturing lens.
Through cultivating mindfulness, we learn to notice what is happening in the present moment without judgement. We learn to be aware of how we talk to ourselves and to treat ourselves with love and compassion. We learn to be patient and trust others. And we learn acceptance and the art of letting go.
Maria Vorhees-Reinke of MVR Healing and Julie Domres of Willow River Yoga are excited to be your guides for the day! They will introduce you to valuable insights, tools, and techniques to help you cultivate lasting habits for a healthier, peaceful, and more balanced life.
Your day will include:
• Gentle yoga, pranayama (breathwork), and meditation practices to help promote mental clarity and emotional balance
• A mindful nature walk, where you will learn to be fully present in the moment by connecting through all five senses
• Educational sessions consisting of teachings on the components of mindfulness, mindful eating, guided reflection and journaling time, and useful tools and techniques to help you incorporate mindfulness into your everyday life
• A beautiful sound bath and meditation experience to cultivate deep relaxation and rejuvenation
• A wholesome, delicious lunch, light snacks, and refreshments
• Time for connection and community building
Price is $219. Early bird pricing of $159 available until March 16th! Space is limited so register soon - tickets can be purchased HERE.
