About this trip
Hello Dear Human~ We're thrilled to share more about what to expect on a retreat weekend with us!
Join Nicole Cronin, San Francisco based yoga teacher and owner of a light-filled community yoga studio- The Pad Studios, as we immerse ourselves in a remarkable opportunity to receive the nourishing benefits of yoga, meditation, sound, beautiful meals & community at a Santa Cruz, CA based retreat center, The Land of the Medicine Buddha.
This August 16-18th 2024 weekend retreat is delighted to welcome dear guest hosts & an amazing sound meditation duo, Anderson & Ellian Pugash.
Anderson & Ellian have offered a handful of Sound Meditations at Nicole's San Francisco based studio, The Pad, and guests of these events have been raving about them! Guests of Anderson & Ellian's Sound Meditations love the elaborate set up including sound bowls, gongs, rain shakers and more, delightfully & intentionally conducted.
More on the Yoga & Retreat Center
Nicole Cronin has studied with many teachers across a handful of lineages, having completed her 500 Hr with Janet Stone Yoga, Nicole is known for her intuitive, thoughtful sequencing and approachable, compassionate and light-hearted themes grounded in the 8 Limbs of Yoga.
Santa Cruz, CA is Nicole's hometown and it brings her so much joy to bring guests to a location so near and dear to her heart.
The Land of The Medicine Buddha (LMB) is a Buddhist retreat center in Santa Cruz, CA set on 108 acres of magical redwood forest amongst the coastal foothills with crisp, fresh ocean and mountain air.
This weekend yoga retreat is for those who love to explore, adventure, practice yoga, move into stillness, connect and disconnect (from technology:)!!
The Land of the Medicine Buddha starts heating their pool in May and has a sauna as well…we will enjoy our time on this beautiful land no matter what the weather holds for us! Lastly, some of Nicole's favorite beaches (New Brighton) & restaurants are just 10 minutes away from the retreat center.

Available Packages

Just a stone’s throw away from the pool and sauna, a short walk to the dining room for all meals and morning coffee & tea and within minutes of a handful of different walking trails.

*Note on Room: You can book this room with friends, or be paired with someone of the same gender. I have hosted retreats for 10 years, and on every retreat about half of the group shares a room with someone they've never met. It always tends to work out quite beautifully. If for any reason it doesn't work for you when you arrive or at any point during the retreat, there is always another solution.
