Join us for the Sangha Retreat, a gathering rooted in the intention to explore the interconnectedness of self and others. This retreat invites you to deepen your relationship with yourself while opening your heart to the beauty of community.
Morning yoga practices will offer space for quiet reflection, grounding you in your own essence. Through partner yoga, we’ll embody trust, support, and presence. In the spirit of giving and receiving, we’ll engage in practices rooted in devotion to both self and sangha—mindful experiences like a tea ceremony, co-creating a vibrant mandala, spending soulful time in nature, sharing our voices collectively through kirtan, and other amazing activities.
The essence of this retreat is to honour the dance between solitude and togetherness, and remember that within the heart of community, we find deeper reflections of ourselves, while feeling the support of community.
This is our fourth year of hosting retreats at the beautiful Harmony Dawn Retreat Centre, nestled on 50 acres of rolling meadows and forests. Completely self-sufficient and off the power grid, Harmony Dawn offers pristine country air with some of the highest oxygen levels in Ontario. Its serene Rice Lake, with its shallow, inviting waters, is perfect for a refreshing swim. Nourishing homemade meals feature herbs and vegetables grown on-site and sourced from surrounding organic farms, adding to the retreat’s grounding experience.
Endings: Connection & Letting Go
Ancient spirals etched across cultures remind us of life’s cycles—birth, life, death, and rebirth—each turn carrying wisdom for new beginnings. Yet, we often overlook Turiya, the fertile space of transformation—pure consciousness that transcends and underlies these cycles. Our relationships mirror this rhythm, evolving through roles and experiences. As we move from lover to friend, student to peer, teacher to friend, or let go entirely, we release the past with gratitude, and linger in the silent potential they hold for growth. 
Reflecting on the connections that have come full circle, I share seven insights drawn from endings and the silent space of Turiya, guiding me to honour each encounter as part of a greater journey as a yoga teacher.

Honour your past renditions, the ever-changing versions of yourself, for they adorn the garden of your journey, paving the way to the beauty of your Becoming and Awakening (Remembering). 
Walking through the forest, I am reminded of the journey we all take. There is an awareness - always present, unchanging (BEING). Yet, there is a part of us that is always evolving (BECOMING). Many past versions of ourselves have shaped who we are today (requiring tender acceptance and reverence of all the parts that shape our soul’s journey and awakening/remembering).
