Peace in Nature Retreat to the Gulf Islands
October 23 to October 25
| $349 – $399Enjoy three nights of peaceful relaxation, nestled in the quiet natural forests and ocean vistas of Galiano island. This retreat is designed to allow time to drop into your practice while taking in fresh air, nourishing food, deep sleep and gentle company. Allow yourself to be immersed in natures wisdom.
We’ll arrive on Thursday evening and settle into our cozy nests, then spend our weekend enjoying island life, departing back to the city on Sunday afternoon / evening. Breathe the fresh ocean air, walk amongst the trees, eat delicious and carefully prepared foods, relax and enjoy the company of other yogis.
