Finding Joy through Self-Care
With Colleen Saidman Yee
September 16 - 18, 2022
In this course, you can expect to move your body, follow your breath, notice your habits, and be inspired to take this love and self-care into your daily lives long past the retreat.
We will dig deep and discover who is living in these bodies.
Women need to gather even if just to feel the comfort and strength of other women in a room and even if no words are spoken. When women are together, a raw honestly surfaces, and we see one another below the surface where it’s raw and beautiful and rare to touch. It is a relief to see and be seen in a world where we don’t even know that we are yearning for it. During this weekend retreat, we will brush off the dust that has collected over the past couple of years and let our true essence shine again. We will do this by moving our bodies, following our breath, listening to music, walking in nature, sharing food and laughter, etc. A weekend such as this can truly be transformational. Please come and refill your own cup.
If community is what you crave, you will be satiated. If alone time is what is needed, we have you covered with walks on magical grounds, massages, naps, journaling, reading, etc. After the past two years, we need to replenish, be inspired and come home to our beautiful bodies.

About the Leader
Colleen Saidman Yee
Colleen's yoga journey began reluctantly in 1984 at the urging of a roommate who took her to a class in New York City that left her feeling intimidated and yet remarkably good. Still, she continued other forms of exercise (including running, boxing, and basketball) until 1994, when she was forced to undergo back surgery. Since […]
