Midsummer Restorative Yogassage Retreat

Service Description

Treat yourself to a deeply relaxing experience like none other. These restorative retreats are held at the midpoint of each season, offering participants the chance to land and connect with themselves at a physical, mental and spiritual level. August's retreat is held at the midpoint of summer, one day after the Gaelic festival of Lughnasadh. This three-hour whimsical retreat begins with an astrological orientation around the season and a grounding meditation. You will be guided through a series of long-held, restorative, supine yoga postures with provided yoga props for physical support, comfort and alignment. Each participant can expect to enjoy Ashley's gentle yet effective hands-on Yogassage assists within each posture. Soothing mantra, poetry, and the soft scent of essential oils weaves throughout the room, calming the mind, body and heart. Your retreat closes with the guided practice of Yoga Nidra, or deep yogic sleep, to send your entire being off and into its blissful resting state. Affirm a sankalpa, or personal heartfelt intention, to last you through the autumnal equinox and beyond. Space is limited to five participants to accommodate adequate individual attention. This event often sells out, so reserve your spot soon. Testimonial ✨ "The Yogassage Retreat is my favorite offering. The three hours fly by and I’m always sad to have it end. I look forward to the quarterly sessions. I love everything about it -- from the astrology information and poetry, to the readings and singing. The assisted massage with restorative poses loosens all my muscles. The Yoga Nidra is so relaxing and resetting. Love it!!" ~Ellen Rogato
