What can I expect at this retreat?
This retreat is the perfect opportunity to escape the stresses of daily life and find inner peace and tranquility. It will include a unique blend of yoga, yoga nidra, meditation, journaling, oracle card reading, art, hiking and relaxing to help you achieve greater balance and clarity. Nestled in the beautiful and tranquil Shawnigan Lake area, our intentional space is perfect for disconnecting from the busy world and reconnecting with your true self.
Being nourished from the inside and out
This retreat was created to nourish your body and mind from the inside and out. Delicious meals will be catered by our Chef, Laura Gosnell. Food is a universal common denominator- no matter who you are, we all need to eat. Yet, the magic happens when we break bread together and it becomes a shared experience. By preparing locally foraged food or ingredients grown by our neighbours, we honour our community, which elevates any meal beyond sustenance. This food philosophy guides her creativity in the kitchen and the ultimate food pairing for her is sharing delicious fresh food with good people.
