Description

Yoga, Sisterhood, and Salt Water! Looking for strong, fluid Vinyasa coupled with facilitated breathwork and dance ceremony? Join Us Through dynamic daily yoga, and inquiry-based workshops women will unearth stories of giving and receiving born within a Market Economy Culture (MEC) and re-narrate new ways of giving and receiving as a community for 6 nights/7 days - which they can weave into their psychophysiology through ritual, breathwork, and dance/movement ceremony. The Vedic teachings that uphold Devoted Yogi remind us that how we ritualize one day is a blueprint for how we ritualize and create meaningful lifetimes. Retreat is our space & place (Thank you Mother Maui…) to ground our desired ways of being into daily reality. Held by delicate, precise, and loving facilitation women will be able to open their channels to recieve confidence in their innate gifts, value, and dignity. The result is intuitive clarity. The retreat will cycle between challenging, yet restorative physical practice and reflection (journaling, walking meditations, ritualized listening/sharing to validate and pray in the positive). Vinyasa Yoga Sadhana with deep attention to the organ body and Nervous System as an origin of the muscular-skeletal system is sprinkled throughout. In place of the open circle technique, there will be a facilitated practice called Synergic Inquiry that assists all participants in transcending horizons through the intimacy of collaborating hearts and minds. Communication tendencies can be healed through the practice, and it trains participants to appreciate and seek differences. The Retreat is specifically held in a nature-based, low-impact setting without the waste and substance use that often accompanies hotels/tourism. WE WILL ANCHOR SIMPLICITY, PRAYERFUL CONDUCT AND RESILIENT JOY! AS A WAY OF HONORING THE ISLAND, AND THE SPIRIT OF ALOHA THROUGH DEEP LISTENING AND MINDFULNESS OF OUR IMPACT.
