“This is one way of speaking about mindfulness or being present: coming home to ourselves. When we bring our mind back to our body we come home. We could consider this state our true home.”

–  Kaira Jewel Lingo, We Were Made for these Times

Mindfulness is a practice that brings us into greater intimacy with ourselves and with the world around us. Time in nature reminds us of our intimate connection with all of life. In this summer solstice weekend retreat at the serene and beautiful Whidbey Institute, we will honor our connection with the cycles of nature and explore yoga and mindfulness practices that bring us home to ourselves wherever we are.

Your Weekend:

Contemplative retreat practice offers us the opportunity to pause the doings of daily life, and the chance to tune more fully into our bodies, minds, and hearts.

Through a balance of scheduled and unscheduled time, guided yoga and meditation practices, and time for rest, we will offer ourselves the gift of slowing down. Your retreat begins Friday at 4pm and completes Sunday by early to mid-afternoon.

There will be some periods of silence (mornings until lunch on Saturday and Sunday) to deepen your retreat experience.

Retreats fill quickly – learn more and sign up here.
