- Location

A day of silence.
A day of yoga, meditation and self-reflection.
A chance to stop doing and take time for being.
Join Nick for this deeply restorative and invigorating dive into your practice, based on the Phoenix Rising approach to yoga and meditation. The day will include:
- Morning and afternoon yoga practices, suitable for all levels
- Alternating periods of sitting and walking meditation (20-30 minutes each; meditation can be done in a chair)
- Eating meditation (a.k.a. lunch)
- Listening and speaking practice as a group
The yoga postures and meditation will be simple and emphasize self-awareness. Familiarity with yoga and meditation is recommended, but technical accomplishment is not required. Curious beginners are very welcome. Consider signing up for Nick's 4-week Phoenix Rising series as a preparation and extension of the retreat.
Bring your lunch, a journal, a yoga mat, and any other props that you might need to sit comfortably. Chairs and blankets will be provided.
