Retreat. Then Live It.
Join us for a powerful in-person retreat on May 23 (9 AM–Noon), followed by a 30-day guided compassion journey to help you integrate and live what you experience. Through short videos and text-based practices, you’ll be supported in bringing compassion into your daily life—within a community of others committed to living with greater authenticity and love. Our retreat is at the magical Indigo Grace retreat center and 22-acre ranch. Unwind with goats, chickens, and a gorgeous vista of trees.
Description
What if the love you’re seeking is already here?
In this retreat and 30-day integration journey, we explore releasing self-judgment and reconnecting with the unconditional love at the core of who we are. Through embodied practices and contemplative teachings, you’ll be invited to soften, listen deeply, and rest in a more compassionate relationship with yourself and the world. This offering is meant for a small cohort of brave travelers who are ready and want to make the commitment to live at a new level of freedom and joy at their own pace with reverence for their process but perhaps still find it hard to soften to their own goodness. Opening to love is often messy, requires honesty, vulnerability and a willingness to not know. But it's oh so delicious when done in community.
During the Retreat
We’ll work with:
Gentle yoga & somatic movement
Yoga nidra (deep rest practice)
Guided meditation & self-inquiry
Creative reflection (journaling, art, nature time)
Connection and shared practice
Closing ritual with singing bowls (with guest artist Dr. Katie Lynne)
30-Day Integration Experience
After the retreat, continue with:
Short guided videos
Text-based inspiration & prompts
Simple weekly practices to support embodiment
Ongoing connection to a shared field of practice
