Yoga, Pray, & Play 
October 26-29, 2023
$450

Yoga, Pray, and Play, the art of deep relaxation with Nancy Plumer. Come rest, relax, rejuvenate, and have FUN through the exploration of yoga, and experience yoga nidra (the art of deep relaxation). The heart of yogic teachings lies in the belief that a self-fulfilled person is a healthy person, free from dis-ease caused by stress and unhealthy living habits. The practice of yoga is designed to lead the person to an ever-increasing knowledge of themself and the needs of their body and mind in order to achieve and maintain good physical and mental health and spiritual harmony. Relaxation is a skill that is vital to life in the uncertain world we live in. We will utilize periods of silence to discover and listen to that deeper voice inside as well as time with community and laughter. We will experience the connection of mind, body, heart, and spirit. This retreat is for the new and curious about yoga to the experienced yogis and yoginis. Please wear loose comfortable clothing and bring a journal and a mat. Click Here to Register

Aging Contemplatively
November 7~9, 2023
$280

Each stage of our aging includes its own riches as well as diminishments, temptations, and resistances. As the body leads the way, our intuition often senses the transitions before we can articulate what is happening. But the soul is ready for further adventure and longs for, in many cases deepening spiritual maturation. during these two days of focused silent retreat, we will give ourselves sacred time and space to listen to how and where God might be both uniquely inviting and challenging us to risk spiritual "ripening" so that we might live into the fullness of this time.
