About this trip
Join us for a deeply restorative weekend at beautiful Bell Valley Retreat Center in Mendocino County, CA. The Autumnal Equinox is the perfect time of the year to slow down, invoke balance, and practice inward reflection. Come take a break from the stress of technology, work, media and politics by immersing yourself in the tranquility of nature. Enjoy yoga, meditation, music, and mindfulness practices for healing and revitalization. Delicious organic vegetarian meals will be served daily for your nourishment. There will be plenty of free time for hiking, swimming in the fresh-water pond, soaking in the hot tub, meditation, journaling, or booking a massage.
The current consciousness shift on earth is creating deeply challenging times for us. But it is also making tremendous healing and awakening possible. Now is the time to do our practices, listen deeply to our inner knowing, courageously follow our hearts, and support each other in our collective evolution!
Retreat Location: Bell Valley Retreat Center is a purposeful place to reconnect with yourself, nature, and like-hearted community. Six miles of trails weave through the beauty and solitude of rolling oak hills and open meadows. The property provides ample opportunities for intentional gathering as well as space for private contemplation beneath the old growth trees. The yoga and meditation room is spacious and features a barn door allowing for ample fresh air circulation.
