What to expect on your time with us…

Highlights:

UNPACK & UNWIND
Upon arrival, each guest will be warmly welcomed and guided to their assigned dormitory which offers breathtaking views and beautiful scenery of the Catskills. Once in the dormitories, nestled in nature’s tranquility, guests will have ample time to unpack and unwind. Guests can savor the serene atmosphere while getting familiar with their cozy and inviting accommodations for the duration of the retreat.

SACRED PRACTICE
Every day, the community will gather for an open-level beginner Jivamukti Yoga session led by renowned heart-work and yoga instructor Anna Papadakis. Each session invites participants to slow down and connect with their breath. Within our Jivamukti classes, students are taught to view asana as an integrated practice of all of the elements that make up Jivamukti Yoga, such as its physical practice as well as its spiritual study of meditation.

The Remainder of The Trip

Highlights:

YIN & CACAO
It all begins with an intention. The ceremony starts by charging the cacao with your personal desires. Sacred cacao is known not only for its rich, creamy flavor but also for its natural ability to promote muscle relaxation and enhance overall well-being. When blended with yin yoga, it creates a harmonious experience that invites you to delve deeper into your body’s fascia and release tension that might be holding you back. This synergy offers a profound euphoric feeling and a chance for self-discovery.

​

SHAMANIC FIRE RITUAL
Drawing from the wisdom of ancient Shamanic traditions, during our fire ritual, guests will be invited to release the burdens of unhealthy habits that weigh them down. Picture a ritual where we cast these negative patterns into a blazing fire, allowing the flames to consume and transform them. As the fire crackles and dances in the wind, we can visualize the pain and emotional turmoil being burned away. Embrace this opportunity to let go and welcome renewal and clarity as we create space for healing and positive energy back into our lives.

​

CONNECTING TO NATURE
Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the Catskills forest and mountains as we engage in meditation amidst the towering tress and vibrant foliage. As you immerse yourself in this serene environment, let the soothing sound of rustling leaves and singing birds guide you into a deeper state of relaxation and connection with nature. Bask in the energizing sunlight as it filters through your soul, fostering harmonization between your mind, body, and spirit during a peaceful hike in this woodland sanctuary.
