Join with us for a soul-nourishing journey of self-discovery and renewal in this 90 minute luscious retreat.

Embracing the transition of the spring Equinox
we’ll delve into practices of meditation, gentle movement, and introspection to cultivate inner balance and tranquility.
Guided by the gentle rhythms of nature, we'll explore the interplay of light and shadow, honoring the wisdom found in both.

 

Liberate yourself from overwhelm and
reclaim your time for joyful, meaningful living.

 

Here’s how our time together will flow:

  • We’ll begin with gentle movement exploring embodied awareness as a portal into deepening connection with yourself.

    • Move and flow to help open tight, restricted places, and release tension, finding freedom and pleasure in your body.

    • Activate energetic flow to help integrate body, mind, and heart.

    • Receive gentle guidance, that meets you where you are, so you can move in the way that best serves you.

  • Then we’ll gather together in a connection circle where you’ll be lead in a soulful centering, introspective journaling, and witnessing practice.

    • Connect with the power of your own presence so you can stay with yourself when it matters.

    • Discover your way into clarity of vision so you easily know what you need, and want.

    • Experience your calm center, and know how to return there over and over again.

  • I’ll teach you about the 4 Realms of Sacred Self Care so you can identify what realm your soul/being is most longing to explore.

    • Expand your understanding of what true self- care is, and what it is not.

    • Discern what’s working for you and how to shift focus to make your self-care more deeply nourishing, making you a priority without adding to your to do list.

    • Create a sustainable, sacred self-care plan that is specific to you and what you need.

  • Our time will complete connecting again in sisterhood, grounded with Sacred Ritual, so that you leave empowered and knowing how to return to calm, content, serenity any time.

 
 

My deepest wish for you is for you to connect fully to the heart of
who you are and the beautiful gift that is to the world.

Hi! I’m Leslie and I am thrilled to be your guide for this soul nurturing day of reflection and renewal. My practice, and teaching, are steeped in over 30 years of experience and the deep intention for for yoga to help you to tap into the state of ease and wholeness.  

I hold space for you to BE you. And I offer you a journey into the sacred - for your self-care, self-love, and self-enrichment. 

Yoga is a deeply nourishing practice and, when practiced with sensitivity and awareness, it can support you not only in feeling better in your body, but in connecting to all the layers of your being.

In this retreat I will share with you how embodied spirituality, the practice of yoga and meditation, and an openness to the rich inner landscape of the soul have transformed my life and how it can support your journey to yourself too!
I look forward to spending this time with you!

"Without these practices,
I don't think I would weather what is going on in the world nearly as well as I do. Anxiety no longer has the impact it once did.”
