Keeping alive the question of how we may truly find balance in our daily lives…
We’ll explore the connections between sound and silence as we delve deeply into the practice of Vedic Chant and also embrace intentional periods of group silence.
We’ll balance movement with stillness as we dedicate space and time to/for both asana practice and seated and walking meditation.
We’ll come together for nourishment as we share meals, conversations,
hikes and, of course, some fine Peruvian chocolate.
***This will be a very small group retreat (maximum 7 participants).
