Join us for a weekend in the Shenandoah Mountains to awaken our relationship to the elements through our senses, our intentions and our practices. It’s the perfect time of year to invite a new way.
The wisdom of the mahabhutas (the five great elements) will guide our weekend through the lens of Ayurveda and Yoga. The earth will invite us into qualities of stability. The water will offer clearing. The air will replenish our vitality. Fire will transform, and space will hold us for a weekend of sangha.
Marma sessions ($108) are not included in the retreat rate.
Spaces are limited.
Location: Seven Oaks Retreat Center, 403 Pathwork Way, Madison, VA 22727
