 Deep Ecology + Yoga Retreat
Sep 6 all-day
School of Integrated Living

Deep Ecology & Yoga Retreat

Let’s come together for a long weekend of reconnecting with self, other, sacred purpose, and the earth. 

In the Deep Ecology & Yoga Retreat (Sept 3-6), we will draw on the work of Deep Ecology and the Work That Reconnects to ground into our ecological identities, and also the practice of yoga to integrate the work into our bodies. We will spiral through the four stages of The Work: Coming from Gratitude, Honoring our Pain for the World, Seeing with New/Ancient Eyes, and Going Forth. We will leave with a re-nourished connection to our bodies, our planet, and our sacred purpose as leaders, changers, and activists.
