About the Property:

Eudaimonia is an ancient Greek word (εúδαιμονία) that points to that which brings human beings a deep and true sense of happiness and well-being: the actualization of our inner potential and highest purpose - our individual and collective soul flourishing. 


Eudaimonia is a private, enchanted wellness sanctuary on 16 acres of sacred land - the ancestral homelands of the Nisenan Tribe - in Nevada City, California. Perched above the majestic emerald waters of the Yuba River on the edge of the Tahoe National Forest in the Sierra Mountains, Eudaimonia offers an eco-chic setting for reconnection, relaxation, healing, and transformation.

I draw on the contemplative traditions of reiki, meditation, yoga, nutrition, positive psychology and integrative wellness to address the entire human experience - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. I teach a steady, strong and spirited vinyasa class. Classes are thoughtfully designed to the seasons and time of day. You can expect to chant, sweat, feel your heart come alive and learn new elements of yoga philosophy in each class. I also love teaching restorative yoga and yoga nidra in late afternoons and evenings on retreat.

I had an incredible weekend with Julie and Kayla and all the women in our group. I recommend this retreat to everyone looking to reconnect with nature and themselves. It's hard to believe how deep friendships can form in just a couple days, but Julie and Kayla create such a safe space to be vulnerable and meet you where you are. I can't wait for the next one!

Fantastic experience through nature, yoga, chanting, delicious food and being surrounded by beautiful, kind and supportive human beings. Can't wait to participate in more retreats with Julie and Kayla.

Such a lovely retreat! Julie and Kayla create such a beautiful container for yoga, song, and the most wonderful setting near the Yuba River. I chose to camp so had a nice little camp site to myself to get away from it all. Each day was perfectly planned to start with quiet, meditation, yoga, song, and plenty of time at the river. There is an outdoor spa area that is a great way to relax and the whole place has this lovely summer camp feel to it. I highly recommend this retreat - it really had it all - delicious food, song, connection, play, yoga, relaxation, and so much nature all around. The team hosting this retreat really paid attention to all the small details to make it special and enjoyable.

Julieanne and Kirin's retreats are the perfect blend of soul food style movement, downtempo relaxation time in a gorgeous environment, friendship, delicious healthy food and fun. I can not provide a higher endorsement for a trip with these women and feel so lucky to have experienced multiple yoga vacations. Honestly, the most relaxing, deeply nourishing and low stress trips of my life. If you are reading this.....just book the damn trip. You will not be disappointed.

I recently returned from an incredible 7 day retreat at the wonderful Blue Osa in Costa Rica, hosted by Julie and Kirin. The community formed in a week amongst 15 women, ranging in age from 23-73, without expectation, and trusting something was there for all of us, was truly magical and something I have never experienced. Julie and Kirin created a safe space for us to share our grief, tender spots, goals and vulnerability. This retreat was long overdue for me, as a mom of two young girls, it truly was one of the best experiences of my life. The retreat gave me the space to be held in nature, by new friends, through delicious healthy meals and most importantly fill my cup first so I can give back to my family and those around me. Julie and Kirin are authentic, loving and inspiring in their own unique way, it was truly a gift to be able to practice alongside them and a group of beautiful women. I highly recommend any retreat with Julie and Kirin as it will change your life forever!

Since returning from Kauai, I have felt a sense of retreat throughout my days. Peace and serenity weave through my day, easing the stress from work and everyday tasks. I am motivated and inspired to continue what I have learned on the retreat and bring it into my daily life. This retreat showed me what it was like to take care of myself and ultimately how that will help me to take care of those around me. From eating healthy meals, to practicing yoga regularly, to calming my mind and practicing kind observations. A huge thank you to Julie for her care and support during the retreat. It was a treat being able to spend this time with her guiding our group. She was prepared and had lots of information and goodies to share, yet was flexible and open to changing the itinerary based on the needs of the group and the weather. Her knowledge of yoga, the island, cooking, and many other great things kept us inspired and in awe. I would recommend a retreat with Julie to anyone with a curious mind, an open heart, and anyone who wants to truly relax and retreat in a healthy and rejuvenating way.
