RETREATS AT ANAHATA ARE IN FULL FLOW! In addition to an array of group retreats, we are happy to be offering our signature solo and small-group customized CHRYSALIS RETREATS!
Here is our evolving array of offerings . . . We invite you to take the next step in signing up for what speaks most powerfully to you, and what dates match up best for you!
GROUP RETREATS We love the rich array of presenters, content and focus of our larger group events! These events typically offer daily yoga as well as a full agenda of day and evening programs in a moderate size group (generally 10-25 participants). If you plan early, we can set up a massage or other spa/wellness session before, during or after your group retreat. Here’s what’s happening this year so far . . . and check back, as our offerings will evolve and new things may appear.

WHAT HAPPENS ON THESE RETREATS?
FRIDAY: Journey to Anahata and settle into one of our deluxe studio apartments or lovely retreat center bedrooms. When you arrive, connect with the heart of our sanctuary with a guided tour/walk to the riverfront, complete with labyrinth journey. After a welcoming & orientation circle, enjoy a delicous hearty vegetarian dinner, then revel in a guided meditation and sound healing bath.
If you get here early afternoon on Friday, you could begin with a massage!
SATURDAY: Wake up to a semi-private yoga class. Afterwards, have a luxurious 90 minute massage or wellness session, followed by a nourishing lunch. Then, either explore nature or have another powerful guided wellness session, such as Life Coaching, Heart-Spirit Alignment, Reiki, or any of the sessions mentioned on our Wellness Page. A delicious dinner, followed by another evening ceremony or activation – possibly a fire ceremony, prayer stone ritual, or other session attuned to the needs of those present on the retreat.
SUNDAY: On the second morning, enjoy another more-than-yoga class, a lovely ‘brunch’, and a Reflection & Appreciation Circle before you depart. If you still need to fit in one more wellness session, that works too!
ALL-INCLUSIVE: Five healthy vegan/vegetarian meals, lovely accommodations, guided pre-retreat preparation, small group welcoming and reflection/appreciation sessions, evening sound bath & ceremony, two 90 minute morning yoga classes, and 90 minute massage included. $900.

I feel so peaceful and reinvigorated from my stay at Anahata. I really cannot thank you enough for the welcoming experience you and the community at Anahata provided to me. You all showered me with love, and it revived me at a time when I felt completely spent. On a spiritual level I reconnected with my angels and still feel bathed in light. It was exactly what I needed, and more than I ever dared hope for. Now even a week later I am still processing what a magical and nurturing experience it was. From a retreat perspective, it not only offered the solace of meditation and yoga and healthful, nourishing foods, but also the immense comfort of a loving community. It was unlike any retreat experience I could have had elsewhere. It’s rare to find the opportunity for self-reflection and solitude alongside the enveloping warmth of such a special community. It healed me in so many ways and on so many levels.
