FIVE DAYS of yoga, purification, healing and ceremony with Ana & Heather. Joining forces, they have created this singularly unique retreat, weaving together the powerfully healing ways of Forrest Yoga, Yin Yoga, pranayama, juicing, Native American chanting, medicine teachings and sweat lodge ceremony. Heather and Ana combine their exceptional skills in guiding all different ages and levels through these fascinating processes. This will be an extraordinary and brilliant life experience.
The schedule is designed with working folks in mind, and to fully utilize the Raffa Center’s state-of-the-art facility. Your days begin with the morning yoga journey: Ana leading the four directions ceremony, Heather leading chanting and drumming, Ana leading pranayama and Forrest Yoga (about 1.5hrs) and Heather completing the session with gentle Yin Yoga (about 1hr) and Savasana.
The Wednesday thru Friday evening sessions are healing ceremony: a group process (about 1 hr), then dividing into smaller groups, you will rotate through the Raffa Center’s urban sweat treatment rooms, continuing the cleansing and healing process. There will be little or no asana in the evening sessions. Nourishing and revitalizing fresh pressed vegetable juices are included after every morning and evening session.
Saturday and Sunday begin with the same morning yoga journey format, and then the rest of the day is dedicated to the sweat lodge ceremony* (for those of you attending the full retreat). Heather leads the sweat lodge ceremonies, with Ana and our firekeeper assisting.
We wholeheartedly welcome and encourage you to come. This will be a deeply nourishing and excitingly self-revealing 5 day journey. You will walk forward from this experience enriched and shining brilliantly! Come join us! – Ana & Heather
