with Integral Yoga Senior Staff
August 15 - 18, 2024
Program Description
Rediscover your inner peace through a weekend immersed in sacred silence. Experience the incredible healing benefits that silence offers, from reducing cortisol levels to sparking creativity and alleviating insomnia.
We invite you to temporarily step back from your regular routines and join us for the Summer Silent Retreat. The spiritual practices of Yoga will help you make meaningful changes in your daily life and uncover what makes your light shine. Reconnect with yourself through inspiring talks, daily Yoga practices, and silent reflection to enable you to abide in your inner light.

The practices of Integral Yoga, including meditation and Hatha Yoga, will help you to realize the peace which is your own true nature.
