Autumn Retreat in Rhode Island

with Ben Wisch & Denise DeLuca
Fri Nov 4th - Sun Nov 6th 2022

Fall in New England

Cool mornings, Blissful afternoons, and Calm evenings to invigorate your body, mind & soul.  

 

Wide open fields as the late autumn leaves turn their richest reds and purples - mother nature’s sculptures - warmed by sunny straw grasses beacon your attention to be absorbed by spaciousness. 

 

An auspicicious Autumn wonderland awaits to set your heart ablaze – Come relax and renew, and experience the warmth of connection, community, and compassionate sharing as as you delve ever more deeply into the yoga practices.

​

This retreat will emphasize Tantrik meditation techniques to strengthen the emotional body, enhanced by daily asana practices to fortify your physical body, chanting & song to uplift, and meaningful moments of experiential sharing with heart-oriented beings.

​

ALL tools to bring back with you to nourish everyday life. 

 

You will be treated to a stay at the newly renovated 18th century farmhouse “Paradise Farmhouse” that offers the balance of history and up-to-date comfort.  There are 6 bedrooms all with private bathrooms supplied with RI’s own Farmaesthetics line of soaps, shampoo, conditioner and bath wash made with pure botanicals.

 

You will be nourished by farm to table breakfasts & dinners artistically crafted by Michele DeLuca Verley of la maison de COCO of Portsmouth, RI.

Every day between practices you will be given the opportunity to share the beautiful, natural resources of the Norman Bird Sanctuary wildlife refuge with miles of nature trails or travel a few minutes to explore Newport’s shops & restaurants, stroll through the picturesque historical side streets, or walk the magnificent beaches. 

In the afternoon you are invited back to the farmhouse for our favorite la maison de COCO’S tea-time where you can cozy up with a “cuppa” in one of the many exquisite sitting areas for conversation or snuggle for a sweet read followed by a restorative practice set to live music. 

 

It would delight us to share this part of the world we call home with you !
