Sacred Beginnings: A New Year Retreat of Yoga, Sound & Soulful Nourishment

What to Expect

Ease into the New Year with a nourishing mini-retreat of connection, mindful movements, delicious food, healing sound & deep rest, with Julia and Magda.

Start 2026 with intention, presence, and gentle self-care. This serene New Year’s retreat is designed to help you pause, reflect, and align your mind, body, and heart for the year ahead — all within a warm, welcoming community.

The New Year is a sacred time to start fresh, set intentions, and honor the possibilities ahead. Each moment of this retreat is an invitation to nurture yourself and create a gentle, meaningful beginning to your year.

Together, we’ll move mindfully, breathe deeply, immerse in sound, and share a wholesome, nourishing lunch.

Come as you are — no experience is needed, just an open heart and willingness to be present.
