Join Andrea + Satjeet, co-owners of Nectar Yoga, for a day long journey into silence.
This Meditation Day Retreat offers a chance to dive inward, listen deeply to the call of your heart, learn new meditation techniques, get clarity on the year ahead, relax with restorative yoga, and submerse yourself in nature in our geodesic dome.
Each sustained meditation sit will be guided and will explore breath techniques, body sensation, impermanence, and acceptance. A grounding restorative movement session will finish the day with nourishment and Meta.
The goal: to leave behind the usual distractions of life and arrive in a space of self-reflection and discovery through meditation.
THE MEDITATION
Sat + Andrea will lead you through the guided meditation sessions that will focus on sustained periods of stillness. If you are new to meditation, this day retreat will offer a gateway into ancient teachings. If you are a seasoned meditator, you can take this opportunity to deepen your practice.
THE FOOD
We will be preparing one simple, vegan, nourishing lunch. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated.
THE MOVEMENT
This is not a movement focused offering, but we will have one restorative yoga class which will enhance the seated meditation practice.
