We start each day in noble silence before gathering at 8 am for our morning practice. We will then enjoy some breakfast, coffee, and tea before beginning with part 1 of our workshop of the day.
After a nourishing lunch feast, we will have some free time to integrate, enjoy lounging by the pool, or book a relaxing massage. Late afternoons around 4 pm we gather for either part 2 of our themed workshop or breathwork/meditation/restorative yoga class.
Every evening we will gather for an Alfresco group 3-course dinner during sunset followed by different evening activities such as yoga Nidra, cacao sharing circle, Fire ceremony, and much more. Some more information on what we will be covering during the astrology workshops:
TRANSITS:
During this retreat, there are some powerful astrological transits taking place, and we'll be sharing additional teachings and activities to celebrate these powerful collective alignments.
