About this trip
Julien Elizabeth & Meaghan Skye, here! We are so excited to invite you to join us again for an unforgettable winter weekend beneath the world’s largest trees and California's darkest skies.
Our 4th annual retreat weaves together yoga with astrology, stargazing, land stewardship, ceremony and storytelling to create a community-centered experience within the peaceful mountains and rivers of Sequoia National Park.
We gather over a long New Moon weekend to connect the studies of astrology and astronomy with our experience here on earth, all while resting at the picturesque Buckeye Tree Lodge alongside the Kaweah River. Together we’ll practice daily yoga and yoga nidra themed to the day's astrology, explore Sequoia National Park, stargaze beneath California's darkest starry skies each night, and feast fireside as a group in our Riverside Lodge.
In support of the work to preserve and restore the beauty in Sequoia National Park, 10% of retreat proceeds will be donated to the Sequoia Parks Conservancy
