Serenity Retreats
Book a Personalized Retreat
Let us bring some calm, peaceful serenity to you and your group. We can come to your location, or a location of your choosing for any period of time you like, from a half day to a full week!
The goal for the retreats is to spend time away from the minutiae of daily life and take dedicated time to turn the gaze inward, getting in touch with your true sankalpas (personal goals), as an individual or as a group. The more you practice niyama (self observation), the easier it is to find your path of living the balanced and fulfilled life that you desire.
We work together to meet your needs. The location, schedule and meal plans are all flexible. We can bring the retreat to your office space, or another location. We can work with your goals to create a schedule that works for you and fits into the duration of time that you would like.
The sky is the limit!
