Regaining Perspective: A Half Day Retreat of Quiet Yoga & Reflective Silence

Feel too busy, pulled in multiple directions, overwhelmed?  Bring things back into perspective with an afternoon of quiet Yoga practice and reflective silence, guided by Ellen Schaeffer [ERYT-500, PYT-1000]. Make this your time, an afternoon just for you.

Silence and stillness offer the opportunity to tap back into the truth and richness of your Being.  In silence you will have the opportunity to watch the habits of mind that draw you into experiences of dissatisfaction, frustration and separation. In witnessing these patterns you are graced with the opportunity to unlock the shackles binding you to thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that are not serving you. Simple recognition will ignite the transformation process.

This half-day retreat includes:
