The Summer Solstice Sanctuary

A One-Day Retreat at Open Sky Retreat Center on Bloomfield Rd

When: Saturday, June 20th | 9:30 AM – 4:30 PM

As the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, marking our longest day of the year, I invite you to join Karen Cappa and I  for a day of pause, practice, and profound renewal. 

Following our recent exploration into the Science of Yoga, we know that our practice does more than just stretch our muscles—it actively fine-tunes our nervous systems and nourishes our brain health. This retreat is designed to take that “internal hum” and expand it under the wide, open canopy of the solstice sky. 

Our Day Together Will Include: 

  • Morning Solar Flow: A gentle warming practice to honor the peak of the sun’s power and build our internal “mind power.”
  • Mindful Nature Connection: Time to wander the peaceful grounds of Open Sky, connecting our own biological rhythms with the abundance of the natural world.
  • Afternoon Cellular Rest: A deeply restorative Yin and Yoga Nidra session to allow our stress chemicals to reabsorb and our genes to “switch on” for longevity and peace.
  • Community Reflection: A space to share our intentions for the coming season as we celebrate the “Kula” (community) we’ve built together. 

Why the Solstice?

The Summer Solstice has been a sacred turning point for millennia—a celebration of fullness and illumination. It is the perfect moment to step off the “fight or flight” treadmill and recommit to your own radiant well-being.
