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

Reviews

The most incredible weekend connecting with new and old friends. This was my fourth time going on this retreat with Julien and Meaghan and I have been lucky enough to be apart of this retreat every year. Each year I have met the most incredible people and this year felt even better than the previous years. It was such a warm and open group and I felt like I got to really know everyone. The cold plunge was one of my highlights! Whenever I doubt myself I am going to remember how I stayed in the river for seven minutes and breathed through every single uncomfortable thought.

Everything about this retreat was wonderful; the magical location, the thoughtful and flexible programming and the other retreat attendees. Five starts indeed.

This was my third time doing this retreat in the Sequoias with Julien and Meaghan and it was so wonderful. I had been counting down the days from the moment the retreat was announced and I couldn't have asked for a better weekend. It was such an incredible group of women and it felt so intimate and special. I will be looking back on it with fond memories forever! Thank you both so very much for such a memorable and special weekend.
