About this trip
“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. … There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature, the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.” – Rachel Carson
As springtime emerges, the season of renewal and growth inspires reflections on personal transformation and the blossoming of one’s inner self. Yoga, a practice centered around mindfulness and self-discovery, provides an ideal backdrop for embracing the energy of spring.
Join dynamic duo—Jackie Walsh & Kathy Caracciolo for a long weekend away to the heart of the Sequoia National Forest in Three Rivers, California! Together we will practice yoga, journal, meditate, hike, stargaze, eat delicious food and embrace the spring season.
Spring can bring a newfound sense of inspiration and wonder to any mindful individual. By exploring the wisdom imparted by ancient and modern yoga practitioners alike, one can seek to embody the vibrant, rejuvenating spirit of spring both in their yoga practice and everyday life.
Set amidst the awe-inspiring giant sequoia trees and pristine nature, this retreat offers an unparalleled opportunity to rejuvenate your body, mind, and spirit.
Enjoy daily yoga and meditation sessions on the treetops to the sound of the river below. With average daily temperatures in the 70s and average nightly temperatures in the low 40s, we will experience a changing of seasons every single day!
Connect with like-minded individuals by staying in cozy cabins! Communal living enhances the retreat experience. Shared and private rooms are available with the option to do a payment plan to make things even more feasible for you! This is an investment in yourself, and you very much deserve it!
Unplug from your daily routine and dive into a special 5-day, 4-night weekend away. Enjoy a transformative journey into the heart of the Sequoias, celebrating the spirit of spring and your own inner renewal in 2024. Secure your spot at our Spring Renewal Yoga Retreat and embrace the magic of this ancient forest.
Let's use this time together to release the things that no longer serve us so we can heal, grow and thrive in community.
