A relaxing, revitalizing summer retreat in the beautiful Poconos
Relax, refresh, and revive yourself – body, mind and soul – in the picturesque, rolling hills of the Poconos mountains.
Slow down and savor the sounds, sights and tastes of summer while refilling your well with daily yoga, meditation, healing sound, creative movement, and supportive community circles.
You’ll be surrounded by forest, ponds and hiking trails, scenic vistas, and enjoy peaceful spaces for personal reflection and contemplation.
Get ready to slow down, stretch out and savor the simplicity, serenity and wonder of summer!.
Amy and I invite you to savor, slow down, do as much or as little as you like. Connect with your heart and find the sweetness in simplicity.
