About this Event

Sacred Self: A Conscious New Year Day Retreat is an invitation to welcome the New Year with grounded presence, not haste.✨


January 1st, 2026 | 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Hosted at Upeksha Yoga Shala by Mia Manito & Jaye Lodhia





About the Event:

This 1-day retreat is designed to gently guide you back to your Self as we crossover into 2026, while exploring a nourishing container of community, ritual, and conscious practice. We will gather in our sacred yoga shala to reconnect with what matters most: breath, intention, and shared humanity.

Rather than rushing into resolutions, we will honour the rhythm of nature and prioritize coming home to the Self - recognizing that true energetic renewal begins in the spring. This retreat offers space to listen inward, set grounded intentions, and begin the year in alignment with your deeper Self.

Whether you are seeking stillness, connection, healing or simply a meaningful way to begin the year, this experience welcomes you exactly as you are. Come be held in community and reconnect to your inner landscape - stepping into 2026 with intention and an open heart.



What to Expect:

Together we will move through a thoughtfully curated journey. Each offering is designed to help you soften into the moment, release the residue of the past year, and awaken clarity for the path ahead. Offerings include:

🧡 Opening Community Circle & Spiritual Discussion

🧡 Activating Breathwork to Release and Reset

🧡 A gentle & embodied yoga practice

🧡 Yoga Nidra for Deep Rest & Repatterning

🧡 Sound Healing for Nervous System Harmony

🧡 Cacao Ceremony for Heart-Opening Intention Setting

🧡 Integration Circle to Anchor Insights & Connect



Why choose Sacred Self?

Instead of jumping into resolutions and the pressure of New Year expectations, this retreat is a chance to honour your inner self. To pause, listen, and respond to your inner calling. This gathering is for anyone seeking:

🧡 A grounded and meaningful start to the year

🧡 A supportive community space

🧡 A chance to reconnect with Self, spirit, or intention

🧡 Rest, clarity, and emotional reset

🧡 A ritual that marks the transition into a new chapter

No experience is required. All are welcome.
