Join Meg, Val, and Jess for one of their deeply restorative one-day yoga retreats on the serene grounds of Mt. Hope Farm in charming Bristol, RI. On November 5th, we will gather in the historic barn on the property for a refreshing respite from the world.
Timed perfectly before the holiday rush can get its grips on us, we will utilize this day to return to our nature through the teachings of Ayurveda and yoga. We will share a vibrant plant-based lunch while exploring mindful eating practices to elevate our health and wellness.
You will leave the retreat feeling rested in the remembrance of your truth.
Bring a yoga mat, water, a journal, and anything else to support you through your day.
Limited space is available. Make sure to reserve your space early.

A Unique Trio
Valerie, Jess, and Meg have not only been trained under the same yoga mentors and have the same meditation teacher, but at the end of their first co-lead retreat together, they realized that each of them is one of the three Ayurvedic doshas. Jess is Pitta (fire/ water), Val is Vata (space/ air), and Meg is Kapha (earth/ water). The three create a synergistic trio of transformation, groundedness, and inspiration. This partnership results in a unique and balanced approach to teaching and supporting each other and participants on each retreat.
