Summer 2019 Wellness Retreat Series
Healer’s Respite: Return to Love
with Fawn Williams
CANCELLED
For those whose life calling is to help others, it is vital to find solace. Delight in the vessel of your own body beside the ocean waves. Commune with other empaths and healers, stoke the fires of your passion to help, and heal yourself by slowing down. Learn about self-care through Ayurvedic wisdom and Yoga Therapy, unlock creativity and inner bliss through somatic play, tap into yoga philosophy as Social Justice, practice therapeutic yoga.
Open to therapists, teachers, activists, caregivers, and other non-professional helpers. Optional to practice silence to rest your voice. Registered Yoga Teachers receive Continuing Education.
Each day begins with movement games, warm ups, and prompts to orient and stimulate your highest self, including a complete Hatha yoga exploration to root you in presence. Afternoons are yours to enjoy the Garden Spa and Finnish Sauna, comb the beach, get a tarot reading, and explore the Peninsula. Evenings are devoted to conversations around applied Yoga and Ayurvedic philosophy, and writing. We close every day with a body-based meditation, and yoga practice to soothe the nervous system, and prepare your body for deep rest.
