In a world constantly pulling at our attention, true rest has become almost foreign.😶‍🌫️

But rest is the very foundation of strength and resilience - the place where our body repairs, our mind clears, and our spirit returns home.

Join us for Renewal Retreat - a day to disconnect from your phone, reconnect with yourself, and remember what it means to simply be.

Sink into the rhythm of restoration:
✨ Savor vibrant, nourishing food made with care
✨ Experience the aromatic Aufguss sauna ritual to release tension
✨ Move gently and mindfully to awaken presence
✨ Ground through calming meditation and breath
✨ Melt into a deeply relaxing massage treatment

This is a special full-day experience designed to replenish your body, soften your mind, and remind you of the beauty of slowing down.

💆🏽‍♀️November doesn’t have to drain you - it can be your time to renew.

As we enter the pre-holiday season, the pace often quickens. Our minds fill with to-dos, our bodies hold tension, and our hearts forget what this time is truly about.

But what if this year we chose differently?

Instead of moving through the holidays from a place of depletion, let’s reconnect with the season’s true essence - its beauty, magic, and power to bring people together in love and presence.

Before we start giving ourselves outwardly, we’re invited to come home inwardly - to prepare our body, mind, and heart to both give and receive with Grace.

✨You are the foundation from which your outer world flourishes.

At The Yoga Garden Retreat, our one-day retreats are designed to nourish you in the way you need it most - to let the land soothe your senses, slow you down, and remind you of what truly matters.

As one of our guests shared: “I felt like I was transported to another world, filled with peace, positive healing energy, and the vibrancy of nature, bringing the body, mind, and spirit into alignment and soul nourishment.”

💫 Join us November 22nd for Renewal Retreat - a full day to restore, reconnect, and renew before the season unfolds.

✨In the Space Between Seasons ✨

As the year gently comes to a close, The Yoga Garden Retreat will be taking a sacred pause. This December will be a time for us to rest, reflect, and let new seeds of inspiration take root.

We’re feeling deep gratitude for all the souls who’ve practiced, breathed, and journeyed with us this year.

And as we slow down to dream and plan, we’d love to hear from you, as your voice helps shape what unfolds next.

What are your hopes and dreams for our 2026 offerings? What experiences would help you feel more connected, alive, and whole?

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is pause.🧎🏽‍♀️

Not quit.
Not push.
Just breathe.
Rest.
Listen.
And wait for your clarity to return.

We spend so much of our lives reaching, fixing, striving.

But real renewal doesn’t happen through effort. It happens in the spaces between - the moments when we allow life to move through us instead of trying to control its rhythm. 🌬️

When we pause long enough to simply be with our human experience - with the doubt in our mind, with that ache in our body, as well as with the beauty and pleasure held all around & within us - something shifts.

Energy clears.
The noise settles.
And what’s true quietly rises to the surface.

Let’s contemplate together: Clarity isn’t something to chase. It comes when we slow down enough to feel, to listen, and to connect with that still steady place in our heart.

Renewal isn’t about becoming someone new - it’s about coming Home to who you really are beneath the noise.

Coming up on Saturday November 22, we have a special spa-like retreat in store for those who are ready to press pause, slow down and breathe a little deeper.

There is nothing for you to learn, analyze, fix or figure out - this is a space for you to just be, to let go, to relax, to receive. 💆🏽‍♀️

Choose the sessions that most speak to you, enjoy plenty of free time, and maybe you add on optional 30-minute massage 🙌🏽

Bring a journal if you want, or just bring yourself, and let this question guide your day: What do I need to feel nourished and renewed?

Join us on Nov 22 with Dawne Tanner and Zofia Kumas to pause, slow down and re-claim your peaceful and joyful Self.

November is the season of return, where renewal isn’t something you chase but something you remember.

As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, this is your invitation to pause, to gather warmth, breathe deeply, and return to what truly nourishes you.

Your day will include:
✨ Gentle yoga and embodied movement
✨ A deeply restorative sound bath
✨ Nourishing vegetarian lunch prepared with love
✨ Sauna & Aufguss Ritual — a cleansing, aromatic heat ceremony
✨ Cold exposure — awakening your vitality and inner strength
✨ Time for stillness, connection and reflection

And for those who wish to deepen the experience even further, you can add on a 30-minute Massage Therapy session with Viviana Bustamante — the perfect way to integrate and soften even more deeply into your body.💆🏽‍♀️

Let November hold you in her alchemy — where release becomes renewal, and stillness becomes strength.

🍂 As October exhales her final golden breath, the trees stand in their honest bareness.

The leaves have fallen, the air sharpens, and the earth grows quiet, revealing what remains when all else is stripped away. November arrives as an invitation to meet yourself there: unmasked, grounded, and real.

At The Yoga Garden, this season is a gentle turning inward. A time to shed what’s no longer aligned and to root deeper into what nourishes your essence.

See below for our upcoming retreats. 👇🏽

💫November 2: Foundations of Self-Compassion

Sink into gentleness with Jennifer Innes and learn to meet yourself with the tenderness and understanding you’ve always offered others. This is your day for deep rest and inner care.

💫November 22: Renewal Retreat

Guided by Dawne Tanner of Soul Flow Healing, this day offers a space to release, realign, and nourish your whole being from the inside out - through yoga, breathwork, meditation, Aufguss sauna and veniks massage, additional one-on-one massage treatments, and more.

Join us in the stillness of November, where healing begins not in doing more, but in being more fully yourself.

A Feast for the Senses and Soul💫

This past Saturday at the Yoga Garden Retreat, we gathered in community to celebrate the art of plant-based nourishment. From roasted garlic basil pesto potatoes to BBQ-glazed mushrooms and pillowy pumpkin cookies with coconut whipped cream, every dish was a reminder that vegetarian food can be both deliciously satisfying and deeply healing.

For us, food is more than a meal, it’s medicine for Body, Mind, and Soul. Each bite is crafted with love, fresh garden herbs, and the intention to nourish from the inside out.🤤

✨Body, Mind and Soul nourishment awaits you at the Yoga Garden Retreat. ✨

Join us for our next Renewal Retreat on November 22nd, where you’ll get to taste this deliciousness first-hand while immersing in yoga, nature, and community connection.

✨Step into the Garden, where practice becomes prayer, and presence becomes remembrance.

Here at the Yoga Garden Retreat, we make it our priority to embody our values in thought, words and deeds: Connect with Community, with Nature, with YourSelf.

The Yoga Garden is a space where noise fades and presence returns. Phones are set aside so that laughter, conversation, and silence can become sacred again. The land invites you back into rhythm, trees whispering, loons calling, the wind carrying your breath deeper into peace.

In this sanctuary, nourishment comes through wholesome, plant-based meals, quietude, and the beauty woven into every garden path and stone. Rooted in care for the earth and crafted with intention, the Yoga Garden is more than a retreat space, it’s a place to remember what truly matters.💫

🌬️Contact us to host your retreat, family celebration, or team meeting and gather in this space of renewal.
