Retreat into the quiet, introspective spirit of autumn, a time of rich inner growth. Join us for a weekend devoted to yoga, meditation, deep relaxation, and spiritual reflection. Our time together invites us to cultivate loving awareness and hold the totality of our experience with gratitude and generosity.

As part of our daily schedule, we will embrace guided mindfulness meditation, breathwork, vinyasa yoga, deep stretching, loving
kindness, compassion, and other spiritual exercises that open body, mind, and heart to the fullness of life. There will be plenty of free time to read, rest, walk in the woods, and share wonderful plant-based and lots of warm friendship. You may choose to stay for either two or three nights. We look forward to sharing this special time of discovery as we seek to embody peace, wisdom, love, and light in our world.

If you would like to join us for a two night weekend stay please reach out to 845 688 6897 ext 101 or frontdesk@menla.org for assistance.
