Finding Your Personal Sanctuary

Our 2nd time hosting the Retreat at Willow Springs Lodge in North San Juan, CA did not disappoint! We went deeply into our practice of finding a sanctuary in nature, yoga, and acupressure.

Participants created a community of love and healing through personal practice and connecting with each other. Acupressure points were shared to connect to the inner sanctuary, the earth’s sanctuary, and the sanctuary of the group. I led 3 Acupressure and Yin Yoga classes, Kerry Cataline led a Sound Healing Session, and Daniel Perkins taught us Qigong.

We had catering by Sierra Nevada Camp Chef nourished us. Trish Hughes, one of the owners of the venue, inspired and impressed us with a tour of her permaculture garden again. An addition this year was floral arrangements by Blessed Be Collective that created the fresh and colorful atmosphere for our yoga classes. It was a relaxing and beautiful weekend!
