WINTER REFRESH RETREAT
ALDERMARSH RETREAT CENTER, WHIDBEY ISLAND
FEBRUARY 28 - MARCH 1, 2020
Winter is a powerful time for reflection and renewal. The season supports self-inquiry, a key to uncovering our deepest desires and purpose. Yoga, meditation and the tranquility of nature facilitate inner connection, leading to clarity of vision and confidence to take meaningful action. These grounding practices, in combination with community, encourage us to move into the next season with vigor, enthusiasm and curiosity.
Over the course of the weekend, you will be immersed in the practice of yoga, including alignment based slow flow vinyasa and restorative yoga classes, accessible guided breathing practices and healing crystal singing bowl sound baths. The schedule is designed to provide balance between activity, stillness, inner exploration and group connection. You will be nourished with delicious local organic meals prepared by Ayurvedic chef Aria Peterman, surrounded by 5 wooded acres of sacred land, and introduced to new, like minded friends. All are welcome and encouraged to join.
