Rewriting Embodied Myths: A Yogic (w)Rite of Passage:

Explore Yoga as a means of rewriting (and re-righting) the stories we embody, and writing as a Yogic tool of Self inquiry.

Join Jessica C Patterson, founder of Root: Center for Yoga & Sacred Studies for this 3-night retreat in the Colorado mountains, exploring the principles and practices that help us revise (see anew) who we are in all our relations.

This will be a weekend of nourishment and recalibration on every level.

In the great traditions of Yoga and Ayurveda, health is known as swastha, which really means to be established in the true self. Sometimes our stories get in the way of that. The retreat will offer us a time to rewrite, reconnect, integrate, digest, and heal into resilient alignment with the natural rhythms as taught by these and other wisdom traditions.

Over the course of our weekend, daily practices and gatherings will center around the shared wisdom of Yoga & Ayurveda, exploring elemental principles for self inquiry and healing into the truth of who we are. Through writing prompts, we will reflect on what it is that arises. We will explore yogic practices of kriya, asana, chanting, mudra, pranayama, meditation, and deep relaxation while reflecting on the Ayurvedic wisdom that frames it all. Discussions, writing prompts, and self study will complement our collective time. Through accessible and relevant inquiries, you will develop an actual, meaningful, empowering personal practice of Yoga as your direct means for reclaiming and bringing forward your intrinsic, authentic beauty and intelligence in this world.

This is not a retreat about posing and posturing as something “other,” but rather accessing and radiating the presence and power you are.

Lodging is very simple and communal in a rustic private cabin, but with limited spots for this retreat, everyone will have ample space to spread out and find privacy as well as honor distancing in the time of this pandemic. Camping is permitted, as well. Here, we are surrounded by the quiet beauty of the natural world. Enjoy the many nearby hiking trails, fireside relaxation, nearby hot springs, gathering of sublime community, and plenty of down time to settle into yourself.

And, as an essential ingredient in our nourishing journey, fresh, seasonal, homemade vegan/vegetarian fare will be prepared lovingly on site.
