Restoring to Ease: Restful Experiences to Find Well-Being offers a nurturing weekend designed to guide you back to your natural state of calm, clarity, and inner balance. We all know- life is BUSY! This is the antidote that your mind, body, and heart have been asking for.

Through the gentle, supportive practice of Restorative Yoga, you’ll be invited to release physical tension and settle into profound relaxation. During iRest meditation sessions, qualities such as: inner well-being, a sense of connectedness and groundedness, and a deep restful ease are invited to be noticed. Adding in the calming effects of a grounding Soundbath, helps quiet the thinking mind and encourages a deeper experience of calm and well-being. Spending the weekend lingering in these restful modalities invites your sense of wholeness, resilience, and ease to emerge. Complementing these practices, optional intentional journaling creates space for reflection, insight, and meaningful integration.

Jill Elkin, an experienced Restorative Yoga instructor, Certified iRest® Meditation Teacher, and Certified Journaling Coach will lead you through each practice with care and support, ensuring you feel deeply nourished and at ease. After the weekend is over, you might continue exploring what you have discovered with 4 weekly group iRest sessions on Zoom at no additional charge.

This retreat held in the quiet embrace of Elohee’s natural setting—create a spacious container for slowing down, listening deeply, and restoring to the ease of simply being. Is this retreat for you? Yes- whether you are brand new to yoga and meditation, or are a life-long practitioner, Jill will gently hold space for you to grow, release, and rediscover the easeful Being that is at the very core of who you are…. Are you ready to restore?
