Spring Radiance Women’s Retreat
Yoga, Hiking, and Ayurveda for Reclaiming Your Inner Radiance
May 10-13th, Sedona, Arizona
Take some time out to reset your digestion and recharge your spirit with us at the Spring Radiance Retreat!
Spring is a time of growth, expansion, and blooming! It’s also a time for spring cleaning, of not just of our homes, but also of our digestion, mind, and energetic states as well. The rising energy of Spring invites us to lighten up after the inward nature of wintertime. The heavy, cold nature of winter leaves us feeling stagnant in our mind and body, which when unaddressed can cause us to lose connection with our natural radiance through symptoms such as: sluggish digestion, lethargy, resistance to change, procrastination, depression, and physical discomfort. This luxurious nature retreat will inspire you to recommit to healthy eating habits with delicious ayurvedic meals and cooking classes, daily self care routines, and movement practices to awaken self love and deeply connect to your body. The magical Sedona desert is our playground for hiking and swimming adventures, surrounded by high vibe company that reminds you of your true nature and ignites your inner radiance.
Activities during the retreat include:
Daily yoga, breathwork, and meditation
Walks among breathtaking Sedona scenery
Visit to beautiful swimming holes
Ayurvedic education throughout the weekend
Enjoyable, organic, nutritious Ayurvedic meals with an amazing group of like-minded women
