Description
Join us for a Yoga Retreat Weekend at Sugarloaf Ridge State Park. Featuring Susan Topf, who has 20 years of yoga experience (E-RYT500) and is a continuing education provider/teacher trainer and mentor.
Susan beautifully weaves the natural features and seasonal conditions found at the park into each all-level quieting yoga and meditation practice. Throughout the weekend retreat, we will explore how the outer landscape of springing into summer's first light inspires harmony in your own inner landscape with cultivating embodied awareness practices that shape creating growth and the new beginnings of a season.
Supportive movement, fireside meditation, space for creative contemplation, peaceful sunset walks*, and local organic sustainably sourced food are all included in this nature immersion. Designed to bring inner peace and joyful rejuvenation to your body/mind, as nature is a healer and we're not separate.
Limited to 12 participants, the retreat will be hosted by the Sonoma Ecology Center's operations at Sugarloaf Ridge State Park.
Located in the heart of wine country, Sugarloaf features a wide variety of ecosystems and terrains and contains some of the Bay Areas' best hiking.
This all-inclusive event includes 7 meals, camping, and yoga/meditation events.
What last year's attendee Michele has to say about the experience:
The yoga retreat was the first step on a whole new path for me. The stunning beauty of Sugarloaf and its friendly staff & volunteers, combined with Susan’s gentle yoga & meditation practices was amazing. It was great to step away from regular life and focus on self-acceptance and peace. Nature, hiking, group activities, and alone time. Delicious, nourishing, and organic meals. New friendships. Such a great time was had by all and I am so excited to attend the next one!
