KRIPALU RETREAT
October 3-5 2025

Cultivate Your Energy
Embodied Practices to Become a Lighthouse
October 3rd - 5th 2025
Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health
Stockbridge, MA
I am so thrilled to be offering a weekend retreat at the sanctuary that is Kripalu.
I did my very first yoga teacher training when I was 22 at Kripalu, and I have this beautiful place as well as the faculty staff and land stewards to thank for setting me on my embodied path.
This retreat will be an intentional flow of practice time, time on the land, and nourishment.
We will focus on the invitation the Buddha gave right before leaving his body: make of yourself a light.
We will dance, breathe, meditate, chant, and experience the deep reset of Yoga Nidra all in service of feeling, embodying and radiating the luminous light we contain.
This retreat is for all bodies who wish to get away for the weekend and immerse in their own wisdom, guided with care and love.
Early October is one of the most breathtaking times of year to be in the Berkshires, as the leaves turn vibrant red, orange, and yellow. The air is crisp and all of nature begins to slow down.
Expect a soul-quenching, heart-enlivening weekend. The food is spectacular, the people are devoted to the path, and you will feel right at home.

Election Week Virtual Meditation Group
Due to this big week in the US, I have decided to extend the Autumn Sangha Virtual Meditation Group through November 8th, and I am opening up this week to anyone who would like to join for 5 days of practice.
Join me and the Autumn Sangha cohort each morning of election week for a 30 minute meditation practice.
There is such benefit in meditating in community, and we welcome those who feel like they could use a space to pause, ground, and find a bit of peace.
These meditations are designed for all levels.
All practices are recording in case the time does not work for you.
Steady As We Go: Pre-Election Movement Meditation
Join me for a community practice that will include pranayama (breath practice), guided movement, and systematic relaxation.
Come as you are and place your opinions, preferences, and predictions aside in favor of a shared place to move your energy through the body and arrive in your center - steady and awake come what may.
All are welcome to this space, whether you live in the US or not. We are all impacted by the reality of our global political climate. There will be extra time after our 90 minute practice for those who wish to share and connect in community.
Let's set our nervous system's up well so that during election week we can be the humans who hold the center, who prioritize kindness, and who can see through the illusion of separateness to the humanity that threads us all together.
Sunday November 3rd
11am - 12:30pm pst
