HINTERLAND ESCAPE
Yoga & Meditation
Retreat
24th - 27th Sept.
An extended weekend to relax and reset in the tranquil hills of the Byron Bay Hinterland. Our home for 3 nights was constructed with mud-brick, and grown with love and the joyful creativity of family life. A place to be shared. We’ll enjoy expansive gardens and forest canopy vistas.
There is a saltwater plunge pool set in amongst the forest trees with an adjacent hut that homes a spa for your relaxation. There are numerous sitting areas and a short meditation walk through the forest for your mindful contemplation.
Each day starts and ends with a peaceful meditation. I’m looking forward to offering several yoga classes during our time together as an invitation for you to expand into your body’s full potential. You’ll enjoy a pescatarian menu with all meals included.
The retreat runs from 5pm Friday afternoon to 10am Monday morning. However, you are welcome to arrive any time after 2pm on Friday to meet me, access your room, then use the pool or wander through the grounds.
