Fall in Love with the Annual Berkshires Retreat
/I have been leading an Autumn Weekend Retreat in the Berkshire Mountains since 2000. This retreat is one of my favorites! With out fail– in only a weekend – you will feel completely re-centered and re-connected with yourself. Year after year this trip is known to send you home – no matter how you arrived- with a deep sense of renewal, gratitude, and inspiration. I can’t wait to share it with you again this year! And I am most exited for the return of magnificent Bass Player and renown composer Garth Stevenson who will play live in class for us Sunday.
“Jillian’s Fall Foliage Retreat gave me the opportunity to learn from a master yogi, to interact with positive and loving fellow yogis, to eat healthy food in a warm and vibrant community of folks eager to enjoy one another’s company, and to return home renewed and energized for the fall and winter season. I had a fantastic weekend! I loved all of it…Sign up immediately — you will be so grateful that you did!”
The Ultimate Reset Button
You will feel completely refreshed when we take time away – even only for a weekend - from daily responsibility and habitual routines to saturate ourselves in a grace-filled natural environment, savor deliciously nourishing foods, linger in longer yoga classes which allow time to truly make a shift in our body and mind, connect with thoughtful present friends, and enjoy meandering at a slower pace.
The Perfect Time Of Year
Just like nature does, Autumn is an amazing time to shed habits and distractions that you don’t want weighing you down in the Winter Months. This is a time of letting go, reconnecting with your health, your wholeness, and with gratitude.
In Just Moments you Will Feel The Magic
As you arrive at our lodge, which is surrounded by woods at the foot of the Appalachian trail, you will feel the stress will begin to melt off. Enjoy a Hike, swing in a hammock, or hang around with friends….
Our amazing Yoga Space (a huge restored barn, is a warm, sacred space illuminated by ceiling skylights) will be the home of four deep yoga classes that will combine Vinyasa Flow, Deep Relaxation, Meditation to harmonize our body and minds with the season. Live Bass with Garth Stevenson always puts the final touch on the perfect weekend!
The Ultimate Practice in the Season of Transition: Rooted and Rejuventated
This retreat includes four comprehensive yoga and meditation classes over the weekend as well as an early morning walking meditation. Our sessions will include grounding, purification and cleansing techniques, designed to prepare our bodies and minds for the changing season.
Design Your Own Time
When we are not practicing yoga, feel free to rest or play as you please: explore the great outdoors, hike to a waterfall, enjoy a bodywork session or simply curl up with a book.
