🌿Autumn Equinox Retreat: Crystal Sound Waves, Yoga & Esthetician Facial Massage

Hey there, Beautiful Humans!

We invite you to join us for our🌿Autumn Equinox Mini Retreat🍂

THEME
The Autumn Equinox marks a time of perfect equilibrium between day and night, as the sun rises in the exact east and sets in the exact west. Nature serves as a mirror, showcasing the exquisite harmony that accompanies the transition from the warmth of summer to the refreshing coolness of autumn. Mindfully transition into autumn's embrace, as we reflect nature's cycles by cultivating balance.

EXPERIENCE | SERVICES
Under a canopy of evergreens nestled next to a garden, indulge in a rejuvenating botanical facial massage and restorative yoga forms within a serene studio space. Cozy up with your favorite blanket amidst the glow of pink salt lamps and diffusing autumn-inspired essential oils, as guided hypnagogic meditation and crystal sound waves lull you into a deeply restful state. Your 2.5-hour nourishing journey concludes with a community circle, light plant-based refreshments, and wellness surprises designed to support you in reconnecting with yourself, others, and the natural world.
