The Taos Writer’s Retreat Hosted by Jennifer Louden
2016-07-24 - 2016-07-30 | The Mabel Dodge Luhan House, Taos, NM, United States
This week-long play, write, laugh, learn and then write some more experience, hosted by my good friend Jennifer Louden, is made for you if you’ve just got to get some writing done and you need a mighty mainline dose of self-nurturing and mojo reclamation.
Could be you’ve never written much or you’ve been putting it off for years or maybe you journal all the time or maybe you’re writing your fiftieth book. This is a “fits-all-writers” retreat!
If you want and need to write, this is the retreat that was created with you in mind.
I am so excited to be teaching yoga at Jen’s retreat during the first week as a special guest. I’ll be taking you through all-levels-welcome yoga practices to connect with your body in order to be even more present with your writing.

Wise Body Wise Hungers Retreat
2016-07-07 14:30 - 2016-07-10 13:30 (America/New_York) | Mount Madonna Center, 445 Summit Road, Watsonville, CA, 95076, United States
What Would It Feel Like to Come Home to Your Body and True Hungers?
Not the ones you think you “should” have, or the ones you wish you had — your actual hungers and desires. For rest, nourishment, play, and surrender. For community, pleasure, attunement, and stillness.
What would it be like to know that you’re capable of meeting your needs — and that you’re willing to do so?
If you’re feeling the call to answers these questions in your heart and life, then we want you in our tribe of hunger-whisperers, re-connectors, intuition callers and inner-life excavators. In fact, if you feel a YES rise up as you think of sitting with these questions, you’re already one of us.
So wouldn’t it be lovely to be in circle and retreat with other like-hearted women who are also exploring these questions? At a gorgeous location where beauty abounds, the food is nurturing (and prepared for you) and quiet is in the air?
Yes, we think so, too.
And we invite you to join us.

Curve Camp
2014-06-20 16:30 - 2014-06-22 12:00 | Scarritt Bennett Center, 1009 19th Avenue South, Nashville , TN, 37212, United States
Fifteen years ago, one brave woman rolled out her yoga mat for the very first time.
She was curvy. She was nervous. She was at home — all alone.
She thought to herself, “Am I the ONLY curvy yogi in the whole wide world?”
The answer was no.
She wasn’t alone. She still isn’t alone.
And this summer, she’s throwing the party of a lifetime to remind you that … neither are you.
It’s CurveCamp: the yoga party for everybody.

What is Curve Camp?
It’s kinda like a yoga retreat — except with less chanting + more cornbread.
It’s for yogis who don’t fit the conventional mold — because they’re bigger, smaller, older, quirkier, or differently-abled than the models on the cover ofYoga Journal.
At CurveCamp, you’ll meet 50 new friends + 6 special guest teachers. (Or as we call them: “Camp Counselors”).
It will be cozy, chatty, laid-back, cheerful, and totally fun.

What’s the Theme for 2014?
Our theme is “Like” At First Sight.
Because we want you to …
Like yourself in the morning. Like yourself in the evening.
Like yourself on the mat. Like yourself off the mat.
Like yourself even when you don’t feel like it.
Like yourself a little bit more every day.
And be with people who like you. A lot.
All of the yoga classes + activities at CurveCamp will be tied into the theme of “liking yourself” … just a little bit more than you did one year ago. Or one day ago. Or one breath ago.
We promise: you’re going to like it. 🙂
And we invite you to join us.
