YOGA. MEDITATION. COMMUNITY. HEALING. FUN.

Gradually moving our lives out of pandemic mode and into a new reality will inevitably include taking stock of how we coped, what (and perhaps whom) we lost, and how we were changed. Regardless of our relative comfort, financial security, ability to work from home, and social support network, The COVID-19 pandemic has affected all of us, and some of its effects may not be immediately known.

We view yoga as a safe and powerful tool to observe and recognize what's shifted inside us, and to tend to it with compassionate presence. Additionally, we recognize the thirst for social connection that so many of us our experiencing, missing the opportunity to create a safe container for some simple, old-fashioned fun! 

Weaving in the themes of taking personal stock, tending to what's shifted inside, and making space for joyful play,  Annie and Amir present a weekend retreat of yoga, meditation, hiking, eating, and playing. We'll practice some postures, do some partner Thai Yoga Massage, meditate, relax, and connect. We'll eat delicious organic home-cooked meals (prepared by our fabulous host, Suzanne Morgan), roast some marshmallows, play some board games, and hike the grounds. We'll spend as much time outdoors as possible, weather permitting, including meals and yoga. 

Our setting is Moon Meadows Farm, an oasis of peace and natural beauty in Kearneysville, West Virginia (just 1.5 hours from Washington, D.C.). on a 36-acre organic farm surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains. The mid-July magic will feature al fresco dining, firefly displays, starry nights, and hammock lounging. Add a few days on before or after the weekend with a visit to quirky Shepherdstown, historic Harper's Ferry, or Shenandoah National Park, and/or stop at a local farmer's market to bring the country summer bounty home with you. 

While Wi-Fi is available at the farm, we will invite participants to remain as screen-free as possible, as a way of maintaining a level of mindfulness difficult to sustain in our daily lives at home.
