The Chakra System Day Retreats!
The Chakra System is something I have always been drawn to. I can remember the first time I heard about this mystical system that lived in the body. Often, I would hear it explained as spinning disks in your body that held energy from the spiritual realm. My intuition knew that there was something to this, but I couldn’t connect with how they were being described. It felt too far out there, too woowoo!
After listening to my teacher, Katie Silcox, explain them, I was able to finally make the connection. I see them as different containers of energy that hold part of the life force that makes you who you are. We all experience wanting to feel safe and grounded. This is Chakra 1. We all have an emotional body that moves and flows throughout the day. This is Chakra 2. We all have an ego, a drive, a feeling of “let’s get in action!” That is Chakra 3. Every Chakra holds a part of who you are. It is the energy that runs through you every day. It is the energy that brings you to life.

This included medical care, friendship, and a way to help the locals flourish. They have a philosophy that incorporates using resources from the land. All the meals are farm-to-table, fresh, and harvested by local families. It is important to us that we experience the culture and be a blessing monetarily while we are there.
Another reason is the land itself. The retreat center is tucked into the jungle. It feels as if Mother Nature herself is holding the rooms in her arms. She is ushering you in to relax, rejuvenate, and feel a connection to the earth. Take a very short walk, and you are on white sand looking out over blue water. There are places tucked away for alone time and communal places to gather, eat, have drinks, and meet new friends.
Our desire for you is to come, to listen, to learn, and to enjoy. We will be doing Yoga together. Most people hear the word “yoga” and think of moving their bodies into different shapes, and while we will practice asanas (poses), there is so much more to know! You will learn about the eight different limbs of Yoga. We will participate in sound healing, meditation, breath work, Yoga Nidra, and much more. You will start the process of learning how to be still in all the chaos around you. You will have the opportunity to rise with the sun and flow in gratefulness for all that we have and are right in the middle of nature. Learning these things is important because the most beauty happens when you take what you learn in a yoga room and bring it out into the real world. When yoga comes off the mat, that is where the magic happens!
Last but not least, adventure! We have an optional trip to go to a small village and see all the wonderful things they make, eat local food, and hike the amazing jungle. Excursions are offered and there is a spa where you can be pampered. It will be a full and joy-filled week!
California Sold Out!
JULY 12-17TH, 2024
Join us July 12-17th in the beautiful desert of California! Our house is 2 hours from L.A. and 40 min from the amazing Joshua Tree State Park. We will explore movement and breath through Asana (poses) and meditation. We will focus on learning the proper alignment of poses as we build a flow throughout the week. If you want more instructions on how to position yourself in a pose, this retreat is for you! Each day, we will learn a series of poses that we will combine into one long flow on the last day we practice together. We will also incorporate breathwork and meditation into our practice, learning how to use the breath to help you move into a pose deeper or move from one pose to the other.
