Program Details

For all levels, including beginners.

The perfect antidote to a busy and fragmented life, this nourishing long weekend is a wonderful opportunity to come back into harmony, balance, and wholeness. This program is designed for everyone looking to honor themselves with yoga and deep healing rest.

During this retreat, you will

  • Release what is tight and expand what has become contracted with invigorating yoga
  • Alleviate not only muscular tension but also mental and emotional stress
  • Learn to stimulate your body’s natural healing response
  • Take home practices proven to foster deep relaxation in daily life.

The focus this weekend will be on rejuvenating yoga sessions, breathwork, and a form of meditative guided relaxation called yoga nidra, a Sanskrit phrase that means “yogic sleep.” Jennifer Reis has a special love for this nurturing and restorative practice that includes healing music, verbal guidance, intention, body scanning, breath awareness, and visualization. All you have to do is lie down, listen, and receive!

Note Bring an eye pillow if you have one.
