Unity Within Diversity ~ We come from the ONE and yet we are uniquely distinct!

Discover how to align with the wisdom of nature to promote physical health, psychological balance and spiritual awakening. Each day explores how the elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether activate the five primary energy flows of the body. Learn how to enhance the flow of vital life force energy through yoga and guided meditation.

As we navigate a culture that emphasizes difference & inequality, how do we shine our unique and valid light so it supports the greater good of ALL? 

The dynamic and balanced relationship of Green Tara and White Tara will be the philosophical container as we explore how to use polarity to find health, well-being and inspiration within ourselves. As Sun and Moon, or Earth and Sky are always in communication, so is the human experience. This is Hatha Yoga! We will explore all facets of how to enhance the flow of vital life energy; asana, pranayama, meditation, mantra, mudra, chanting and the delicious exploration of being surrounded by love and good company. 

This retreat will particularly focus on how to explore the Subtle Body through breath and other practices that build sensitivity to how we channel energy and direct energy for our highest good.
