Final day out of our journey in

-As the sun rises over the retreat on our last full day together, inhale the energy that fills the air around you, and prepare to take on whatever the day brings with intention, strength, and enjoyment. Starting the day with a morning yoga session and continuing into our first meal of the day, we invite ourselves and each other to fully unmask and embrace what we learn about our practice, our intentions, and ourselves with full authenticity.

-Our schedule for most of today is open, offering a world of possibilities for relaxing at the resort, venturing out into town, or immersing yourself in nature.

-Your afternoon is free to use as you see fit before we gather for our final sunset together. As we flow through this restorative session, matching our breath with our bodies, invite your spirit to fill with gratitude for all you have gained on this journey.

-We then come together for our farewell dinner, sharing tales of times shared and memories made, both together and alongside ourselves on our inner journeys. Finally, let’s retreat to our rooms one final time for a night of rest, perhaps filled with dreams of all that has been and what is to come.
