Going Back To Cali!

Hello Yogis!  I am happy to announce that we are going back to California for Karma Retreat 2.0 June 26st-30th, 2024.

Last year’s retreat was a wonderful experience and we all loved the northern California sun, practicing yoga al fresco, touring the neighboring vineyards and of course doting over the sweet residents at Oscar’s Place.

This year’s retreat will be very similar in format but will have a few tweaks.  First of all, we will be staying in Hopland (Mendocino County) which is just shy of two hours from San Francisco; last year we were in Cloverdale (Sonoma County).  I chose Hopland as our home base because it is so much closer to all of the key venues which means less drive time.  Furthermore, I found an amazing home away from home that I believe we will all enjoy.    

This gorgeous home has a solar heated infinity pool, four separate casitas with a king bed and bathroom with shower. The master bedroom in the main house also has a king and private en suite bath. All of the dinners will once again be catered by Epicurean Escape and I am already excited to have Matt’s famous chocolate chip cookies!

One extra special addition I have for this year is a sound bath on our final evening. Audrya Chancellor of Mendocino Sound Healing will join our restorative practice and use her beautiful instruments to nourish our mind, body and souls.

I am extremely excited for this and cannot think of a better way to conclude our time together.
