Spring Renewal & Meditation Retreat 2022 (4 days, 3 nights)

Join Monique and Sheana for a 4 day (3 night) Spring Renewal Yoga and Meditation Retreat at the tranquil and chic Bell Valley Retreat located in the hills above Anderson Valley (just 2.5  hours north of San Francisco).  This is truly a special place, as the retreat land spans more than 600 acres, with extensive trails weaving through rolling oak hills and open meadows. Each element of Bell Valley Retreat promotes harmony and integration with the land - designed to honor the natural landscape originally settled by Native Pomo tribes.

Spring is a potent season of renewal, rebirth and blossoming as we emerge out of the darkness and stillness of winter. Retreat invites an intentional container to explore the personal meaning of this shift in season as well as an opportunity for self reflection, healing and transformation.  In Traditional Chinese Medicine, spring is the season associated with Liver meridian (detoxification and cultivating compassion). The retreat practices will support energy balance of this channel as well as harmony and release in the physical and subtle energy centers of body, heart and mind.

During this retreat, we will have exclusive access to the entire property. 

The retreat experience will include:

4 sessions per day co-led by Monique and Sheana which includes:

- Morning meditation

- Slow flow vinyasa (all levels)

- Yin & Restorative yoga

- Evening meditation

+

- Opening and closing ritual

- Psychospiritual Inquiry

- Free time each afternoon for self-reflection, hiking, soaking in the hot tub

- Treat yourself to a bodywork session (separate cost)

- 9 nourishing, organic vegetarian meals

All levels of yoga practice are welcome. Some meditation experience is preferred, but not required. 

The retreat will begin at 4:00 pm on April 7 and end at 2:00 pm on April 10.
