Details of this retreat

The Refuge of Practice:

Take refuge in your practice, in the halcyon grounds and environs of Menla, a nature preserve in the heart of the Catskill Mountains.

While soaking in the practices of asana and pranayama, and exploring the inherent bandhas, mudras, kriyas and dharanas, we will delve into the heart of the practice of yoga. Yoga is the cessation of movements in consciousness. Practice is the steadfast effort to still these fluctuations.

An immersive 5 days of inspiration and restoration to revitalize and clarify the way of our lives.

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.
