Resting Into Spring:
Restorative Yoga Retreat

March 5 -7, 2027

Blue Mountain Retreat Center
1032 Hoffmaster Rd. Knoxville, Maryland

This retreat invites you to soften into Self through nourishing yoga practices grounded in breath and body, centered around comfy, cozy vibes. Bring your favorite friend with you or make a new friend. In between scheduled practices and meals you can surround yourself with people to do some arts & crafts, take a moment of solitude with a blanket and book in the hammock, book a massage, or walk among the trees or along the Potomac River.

The people that will love these retreats most are those waking up to how patterns of people-pleasing and perfectionism might be stealing a lot of your energy. Let’s refill your cup with a weekend tucked away in the mountains being in with nature, nourishing food, and good company.

You are welcome to participate in all the activities or none of the activities. Practices are suitable for students of various levels and abilities - you just need to be able to get up and down off the floor. No yoga or meditation experience is necessary.

❋ Rest and Restore

These practices will tend to the layers of you so you can quiet the noise of caring for others and let yourself receive. You don’t have to take care of anyone else on this retreat. Your retreat leader will make sure you have food, water, community, and a place to rest your head.

❋ Discover Deep Breaths

By exploring breathing techniques, gentle movements, and postures that invite rest, you will access a deeper breath and a deeper presence. This weekend will allow you to come back home to true nature through yogic practices of breath and rest.

❋ Gather & Nourish

Carrie is skilled at holding space for people to gather, connect, and create a container of curiosity. We will gather for yoga practices, homemade meals (provided) , and other activities. Beth’s cooking is so tasty and she will work with any dietary restrictions or needs you have.

❋ Welcome Spring with Steadiness

Transitions are challenging and also magical - in life changes and seasonal changes. We will take some time this weekend to honor the gifts of winter and set some intentions for what we’re welcoming in for spring.
