We are beyond thrilled to invite you to the Pratyahara Retreat at Bear Mountain Inn in Waterford, Maine—a serene escape set on 25 stunning lakefront acres, where time slows down, distractions fade, and the journey inward begins.
This special long weekend is designed to help you reset before the holiday craziness, grounding yourself in clarity, balance, and intention so you can move into the season feeling truly connected and at peace.
Pratyahara, often called the "withdrawal of the senses," is one of the eight limbs of yoga.
It is the practice of turning inward, creating space to quiet the noise of the outside world and cultivate deep self-awareness, emotional balance, and mental clarity.
Through this retreat, we will embrace stillness, presence, and renewal, allowing you to rediscover your inner strength to return home feeling lighter, refreshed, and inspired.
