retreat tracks
all tracks reconnect to Spirit
various tracks to get you there
There’s no one-size-fits-all. We designed several tracks to excite your Spirit. The purpose of each track is always the same: reconnection. All tracks start with immersion in nature to create a sense of grounding and tranquility. From there, we activate your mind, body and heart in different ways to spark love and light. You choose the track that calls the most to you.
All of our retreats begin with nature immersion. Our retreat center is cradled by Mother Nature. The Santa Cruz Mountains, the redwood forest, fresh air and California sun, work together to create an environment that will insulate you from the chaos of today’s hectic lifestyles. Within this environment, we will take you out of your every day life, while immersing Mind, Body and Spirit in nature.
Mind: We will learn about the nature that surrounds us. Our resident naturalist will provide interesting information on our hikes about the Redwood forest, the trees, fauna, animals that reside here. Stimulating your mind with rich information and then we will lead it to rest, reflect, and meditate.
Body: We will hike, do yoga, move, dance and stimulate our bodies, while surrounding our other senses with the smells, colors, touches, and sounds of nature.
Spirit: We will activate your spirit with activities that spark joy, curiosity and wonder.
Most of our retreats include somatic movement to reconnect your body. Somatic movements may include simple activities like hiking, yoga, ecstatic dance, tai chi. No prior experience is required and only moderate physical fitness. Not only do these kinds of movements spark joy, it is a way for us to create awareness of our bodies. We couple these activities with meditation to create presence, awareness and appreciation of our bodies. Through this approach, we aim to reconnect the body.
