Softening into Presence:
A Day of Rest & Renewal
Saturday, Nov. 21 | 10:30am - 4pm
Hosted at Sky Pond in Apex, NC
Come and receive the gifts of rest for your body, mind, and soul.
This day retreat at the lovely Sky Pond is an invitation to slow down and care for yourself, as we journey into the darkest part of the year. Together we will practice softening into presence through gentle yoga, breathwork, quiet time in nature, and the supportive companionship of other lovely humans.
You’re welcome to come just as you are.
~If you are holding big and heavy stuff, you are welcome.
~If you are weary and kind of worn down, you are welcome.
~If you need a break and a deep breath, you are welcome.
