Earth & Spirit Schedule & Yoga Info (Please Read Fully)
Our international resident coaches teach yoga through a variety of styles. Including Kundalini Yoga, Vinyasa Hatha, Flow, Restorative, Yin & Yang, and Moving Meditation. Along with daily self practice morning meditation, evening group meditation or activity, a weekly local hike and two plant-based community meals a day.
Guests can join our ashram-style non profit Earth & Spirit Community Yoga Retreat which is collectively run by our residents & karma yogis and our Wild Forest Awakening deep healing and rewilding retreat which runs twice a year on specific dates. (please see separate listing).
There is a relaxed atmosphere with structure around daily practice and meals to keep things running smoothly.
We embody an encouraging yet flexible approach to our schedule where everyone is free to join as they wish, with the exception of karma yoga (the practice of selfless giving 1h a day) and our weekly sharing circle which are essential practices creating connection, support and unity amongst us.
However, we are always ready to respond to our guests’ needs and modify our practices in accordance. There are many opportunities for personal space and reflection times within the retreat and community areas and forest to allow you to process and spend time with yourself when needed.
Private sessions, ayurvedic massage, detox and cleansing classes, reiki healing, tarot card readings, and guest coach workshops may be available and can be booked and paid for as extras.

Sunday is a free day the yoga schedule does not run but often guests or volunteers run a morning class or workshop.
Only breakfast is included so guests can have the day to explore and eat out.
Day trips and activities can be arranged.
PLEASE NOTE:
The schedule is subject to weather-induced time changes and thus will not alter the number of sessions included.
We are a nonprofit community and Karma Yoga is the yoga of selfless giving is an act of service, not a class.
It is where we all pull together after meals for 30 minutes or at a to support the community's needs. It enables us to create a feeling of unity and helps us to offer our retreats at affordable prices.
