Sierra Nevada Meditation Retreat
For two days and nights we spend our time in the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains of eastern California, taking an inward journey through the meditative process. By initially focusing on the breath, we stay in the present moment, being mindful of ourselves, our environment and learning patience. The trip also includes sound healing, shamanic journeying, movement and breath work.

Other domestic programs include mountain climbing and sailing. Details to follow.
