Details of this retreat

How do we create the conditions for optimal health and wellbeing in our intense modern-day lives?  The ancient traditions of meditation, yoga and the sister science of Ayurveda offer practices that balance, heal and transform mind and body to up-level your health, reduce stress, strengthen your immune system and soothe your spirit. The best way to integrate these practices into your life is to learn by doing.
Join Sue Bonanno, 25+ year yoga practitioner and teacher, founder of Soulspace Meditation & Wellbeing and Chopra Certified Ayurveda Instructor, on this weekend immersion into living a yogic lifestyle. Give your life some breathing room by retreating from your day-to-day life for a weekend to live the yogic practices with guidance and support.

Weekend retreat stay
The property is on a beautiful, peaceful location.
Nature is all around and sometimes a little too close but you are literally surrounded by woods.

The food was really good and I liked the buffet style and fruit basket.

The gift shop although small had a nice selection of items and I purchased a few fun items.

Since the dining area was on the opposite side of the site from the convention center, a lot of students drove back and forth on the property. I chose the walking paths to get around.

Lovely
I had a fascinating and enlightening experience during an “Energy squared Reiki,” class at Menlo this past week. The grounds, rooms, facilities amenities and spa at Menla were all beautiful, clean, and peaceful. The food was delicious and nourishing. I can say only good things about both Menla and the program I attended, and would wholeheartedly recommend both.
