RECOnnecting from within

Join us for our Wellness Retreat TO GUIDE YOU INTO Reconnecting WITH YOUR BODY through Boundary Work

MARCH 17th - MARCH 20th, 2022
THE CATSKILLS | ANDES, NY

Escape on this four-day, three-night getaway at Streamside Yoga, a studio by the Tremperskill Stream in the beautiful Western Catskill village of Andes, New York, USA. During this retreat you will be engulfed by the Catskill mountains as you learn how strong grounding and healthy boundaries allow for a strong connection with yourself; and support your connection with others.

Over the past 24 months, the pandemic impacted how we connect with others and has pushed us to reassess our life's journey. Attend the retreat and be reinvigorated as you allow for the benefits of being in true contact and connection.

You will enjoy morning and afternoon yoga classes, drumming, vibrant breath work, as well as grounding and boundary exercises. You can go on a hiking trip on nearby trails and enjoy the beautiful night sky. Weather permitting you may also enjoy a warm drink around the bonfire. Fresh local fruit, herbal teas and coffee will be readily available daily.

Throughout your stay, Mind Shift Mountain LLC will guide you in staying present in nature, your environment, and yourself and connecting with your breath and the ever-changing creative energy within you and the universe.
