Retreat reflections
Hello Friends!
I had the pleasure the past five days of sharing meditation, mindfulness, movement. compassion, vulnerability, joy, laughter, silence, and tenderness with a beautiful group of educators at our Mindfulness for Educators retreat at Drala Mountain Center. As I settle at home I am reminded of the preciousness of the opportunity for retreat and how important it is to take time for ourselves to turn inward, reflect, and make active choices for how we want to show up in the world. One of the particular treats of holding space for others on retreat is watching the unfurling of the innate wisdom we each hold being shared, valued, and honored by the group. I am always humbled by the impact we can each have on each others’ lives and the joy we can create and share with simple human interactions. My gratitude to my co-leader, Andra Brill, and to each retreat participant for sharing their authentic selves and personal wisdom with us all. ♥️ Next summer’s Mindfulness for Educators Retreat will be held June 13-17. Mark your calendars and save your pennies! We’ll let you know when registration opens!
Please join me this weekend for Saturday Morning Yoga at 8:30 AM MT as we pause, listen to our bodies, and care for them with lovingkindness. The next Full Moon Sound Bath will be July 12 @ 6:00 PM MT. Join me in person or virtually!
There is 1 spot left in September at my friend Michelle Voeller’s seasonal women’s retreats in Carolina Beach, NC. I attended last fall (and will be going again this year!) and it was a lovely experience. If you are looking for a nurturing beach retreat, these are for you! Find out more at Natural Harmony Healing & Fellowship.
