Do you love Yoga, Hiking, Nature and a little Wine Tasting? Join Us!
Yoga ~ Hiking ~ Wine Tasting! ~ Mindfulness ~ Vision Boards ~ Nature

Join us for a beautiful Fall weekend in Sonoma Wine Country with daily yoga and meditation, mindfulness and wellness workshops, hiking in nature, nourishing, local farm-to-table cuisine and delicious, biodynamic healthy wine tasting! We're so grateful to be hosting this retreat at the lovely Westerbeke Ranch, just 1 hour drive north of San Francisco, and 10 mins drive from Sonoma town plaza.

We invite you to move and nourish your body and connect deeply with your soul.

The yoga classes will be mostly Vinyasa Flow Yoga, linking movement with the breath for a mindful, energizing yet relaxing flow. With mindful, creative and balanced sequences, strengthening and lengthening, detoxing and pranayama, you will experience a strong, safe and supportive practice. Options and modifications will be provided. You'll have the opportunity to play with some backbends, arm balances, and inversions if you choose, and cool down with some deep stretches to restore the body and mind. There will be one Yin Yoga class during the retreat.

She did a great job of offering yoga modifications for all the different levels attending. The food was very clean, delicious and nourishing.
