Love in Practice is a day of exploring love. Not simply as a feeling, but as a practice in movement,
mindfulness, reflection, and healing.
About this Event

Less striving. More presence. More connection. More love.

What if love wasn't something we waited to find but something we practiced?

Love in Practice is a day devoted to exploring love not simply as a feeling, but as a practice. Guided by Sam and McKenzie’s own experiences with movement, mindfulness, reflection, and healing. This intimate retreat offers space to care for oneself while considering how love can shape how we move through the world. The day includes shared meals, guided meditation and breathwork, two yoga sessions, guided journaling, and a takeaway tote filled with a few of Sam and McKenzie’s favorite tools.

What to Expect

Throughout the day, each experience invites you to slow down, turn inward, open your heart, and explore what it means to practice love for ourselves and one another.

Two Yoga Practices
Move, breathe, and reconnect with your body through two intentional yoga practices. An opportunity to listen inward, create space, and come back to yourself.

Facilitated by Ruthann Zentner, 500RYT

Guided Meditation
Quiet the noise and settle into the present moment. A grounding practice to cultivate awareness, soften, and create space to listen to what your heart might be asking for.

Journaling + Reflection
Put pen to paper and explore what love looks like in your life right now. Guided prompts will invite curiosity, honesty, and reflection around how we care for ourselves and show up for others.

Facilitated by Jennifer Dreiling, ACC

Conversation + Conversation
Love asks us to connect. Through thoughtful conversation and shared reflection, we'll explore the ways love can be practiced through care, trust, presence, and community.

Rest + Reset
A day away from the usual pace of life. A chance to rest, reset, fill your cup, and return to yourself.



What to Bring
  • Your yoga mat
  • Any supporting yoga props you may need for your practice — props will not be provided
  • A water bottle
  • Yourself

Come as you are. No experience with yoga, meditation, or journaling is required. Just bring an openness to slow down, connect, and be present.

Meet the Leads
McKenzie Norris, 200 RYT + Sam Yates Meier, 200 RYT

McKenzie and Sam are two besties who share a love for yoga, creativity, mental wellbeing, meaningful conversation, and bringing people together.

They dreamed of a day away where they could move and breathe, have those light-bulb moments through conversation, bring people together in a space of community, and experience that “my cup is so full” feeling when they get home.

Together, they've created a day centered around connecting with yourself and others. A space to pause, a place to rest or reset, and an invitation to practice your love.

Because love isn't just something we feel.
It's something we practice.
