GRATITUDE YOGA: SPRING YOGA & MEDITATION RETREAT
With Gemma Farrell
April 30 - May 3, 2027
Welcoming New Growth
As the earth awakens and new growth begins to emerge, spring offers a beautiful reminder that growth is a natural part of life. This April, we will turn our attention inward and explore what it means to cultivate growth within ourselves, not by striving to become someone different, but by creating space for what is already waiting to unfold. Through meditation, mindful movement, reflection, and quiet time in nature, we will explore the conditions that support inner growth: presence, patience, curiosity, courage, compassion, and trust. Together we will consider what we might nurture, what we might release, and where we might be ready to open to something new.
Each day will begin with an early morning guided meditation and a mid-morning gentle vinyasa practice. Afternoons will offer time to rest, walk, read, reflect, or simply be, followed by an afternoon gentle stretching session. Our evenings will close with the deeply restorative practices of sound healing or Yoga Nidra.
Throughout the weekend, there will be opportunities to slow down, reconnect with ourselves, and listen more deeply to what is unfolding within. Join us as we make space to breathe, soften, listen, and discover what is ready to grow.
No previous meditation or yoga experience is necessary. All practices are offered with options to meet you where you are.
