Envision yourself in a beautiful retreat setting in the Appalachian mountains…
spending 3 days with a collective of Bhakti sisters…
nurtured by nature, singing by the fireside, dancing under the (almost) full moonlight…
nourished by gourmet, organic vegetarian meals & snacks,
sipping herbal beverages created with spices of sacred lands,
refreshed by mountain air and pristine waters…
With mantra chanting infusing your days and nights like a delicate spring breeze
that leaves a subtle, yet sacred imprint upon the heart…
Laughter that rolls tears
And smiles that stain cheeks
Rituals that anchor in the present
And release the past… with ease.
Festive adornments and sweet spring flowers…
Reflective practices, mountain meanderings, soulful explorations…
Rejuvenating in community…
daily musical gatherings,
wisdom teachings,
empowering dialogues,
and
all.
things.
sacred.
I invite you to...
