Being in the role of helper can be rewarding and satisfying as well as be exhausting and depleting. Choosing time to replenish is essential. Join us as we hold space and offer nourishing care for you, the caregiver.
Are you:
Employed in a helping profession?
A parent or elder caregiver?
Pushing through everything that needs to get done, but feeling exhausted on a deep level?
Someone who looks like you have it ‘all together’ on the outside but feel like you are falling apart inside?
Pretending you are ‘ok,’ but maybe not?
Unaware of how you are really feeling because you are keeping it together for your patients, clients or family?
Then this day retreat is for you.
Join us for a day of yoga, meditation, reflection and rest. Our time together will include a gentle yoga practice, mindfulness activities, exploration of self-compassion through personal reflection, and will conclude with a Restorative Yoga practice.
The intention of this workshop is to provide you with a resting and healing space from all of the responsibilities that you navigate in your life. Together, we will explore body-based and heart centering practices that are designed to help you move from the state of constant effort, to a place of greater ease. Space will be held for you to be be guided into your own internal wisdom, to get in touch what it is that you need to feel cared for, nourished and balanced.
Lunch is included and will be provided by Whistle Punk Farm Deli at 2pm - gluten-free and vegan options will be available.
No prior yoga or meditation experience necessary.
Cost: $125
